As China’s economy slows and its stock market posts sharp declines, Chinese investors are reportedly looking to park more of their money in U.S. real estate. Developers, financial institutions, and high net-worth individuals are seeking safe investments in income-producing commercial and residential properties, in addition to luxury home purchases for their personal use. Chinese investors already accounted for nearly 28% of the total $104 billion in residential U.S. real estate sold to foreign buyers last year (Canadian buyers bought $11.2 billion).
