Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signed Senate Bill (SB) 17, banning citizens and companies from China, Iran, North Korea and Russia from buying land, homes or commercial properties in Texas. The law aims to protect national security. SB 17 prohibits purchases of agricultural land, residential/commercial properties, mines and water rights by individuals/entities from the listed countries. Violations are felonies, with the Texas Attorney General enforcing penalties. Exemptions include U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents and foreign nationals buying a primary residence. Texas is one of 25 states restricting foreign property ownership – citing fears of espionage, economic coercion and land grabs near military sites. China is a major focus due to land purchases near U.S. bases, control of critical infrastructure and suspected espionage tools.
