in London, London has become the hottest property investment
destination that attracts an increasing number of inflows of
foreign capital. According to the latest report Association of
Foreign Investors in Real Estate London has surpassed New
York, and currently ranks the first market worth investing in.

 The rising Chinese market

In the past few years, Chinese buyers have started to
make their presence felt on the global property market,
snapping up everything from luxurious trophy homes and
vineyards, through to more modest condominiums and
investment
opportunities.
To
many
Chinese,
global
property investment is an emerging opportunity which
until recently was out of reach.

Great rise of the Chinese consumer

China boasts some of the wealthiest people on the planet,
whose
personal
fortunes
can
dwarf
treasuries
of
medium-sized countries. However, the true power of the
Chinese buyer is represented by over 63 million people
whose wealth and incomes provide them with the ability
to purchase international property.

Nearly all wealthy Chinese buyers are self-made. Highly
entrepreneurial,
wealthy
Chinese
have
not
inherited
their fortunes, as quite frankly, until the last 15 yea rs
there
was
not
much
to
inherit.
W ith
such
drive
and
achievement, Chinese buyers want a better life for their
families, and value many opportunities the world has to
offer.


Industry analysts, such as Hurun make the observation
those Chinese buyers already investing internationally
are the early adopters rather than the mainstream rich.
Over the next five years, the mainstream rich will enter
