How will the Chinese Buyers Market Change for Palos Verdes in 2017?

What will the factors be that effect any changes? Chinese New Year, the first Golden Week for 2017, is just a week away. Our latest survey says that 42% of Chinese travelling in 2017 plan to engage in property hunting during their trips abroad

1) China’s GDP growth

remained steady at 6.7% in 2016 [Bloomberg: China’s factories, services cap year of gains as prices rise] and the forecast for 2017 is around 6.5% [2. China State Information Center (SIC)] This is obviously a very strong rate of growth especially when compared to the United States, the UK, Canada and Japan. India clocks in at a forecasted 7.6% GDP for 2017. Bottom line, this type of growth means more wealth to power Chinese overseas buying

2) Currency devaluation

motivating Chinese outbound investment. China’s foreign direct investment hit a record $190 billion in 2016 [Mercator Institute for China Studies (MERICS) and the Rhodium Group “Record Flows and Growing Imbalances: Chinese Investment in Europe in 2016”]. This is driven by the fact that many Chinese investors already plan to increase holdings in the next 2 years and the fact that for Chinese Buyers, the most favored asset class to hold is real estate. “Overseas property purchases are the most popular form of overseas investment for China’s high net worth individuals (HNWIs)”, says Hurun Report [Hurun Report: Immigration and Chinese HNWI 2016]. What does this mean in the number of Chinese Buyers interested in purchasing overseas? It’s estimated that over the next 3 years, this number will be approximately 800,000!

3) The Chinese government

is tightening controls on cash flowing out of China. The controls will effect more commercial investments and less so those of mainland Chinese buying homes overseas. Regardless of the fact that the controls established in 2007 that no more than $50,000 per year of currency may be exchanged, records show that Chinese buyers paid an average of $800,000 for residential property and most of these deals were ALL CASH.
