THE LARGEST U.S. REAL ESTATE SHOWCASE AND INVESTMENT FORUM HELD IN CHINA.

A REAL ESTATE SHOWCASE IN SHANGHAI?

Chinese investors are the #1 foreign buyers of U.S. real estate:

There are key changes driving Chinese investment in the U.S.:• In 2017, rapidly escalating fears of a housing

bubble in China are pushing even more investors to seek investment safe havens

• In 2016, China’s growth rate was the lowest it had been since 1990, further driving interest in opportunities abroad

• Increased consumer confidence in the U.S. in 2017 has made it an even more attractive destination for foreign investment

• A growing number of Chinese companies are looking for U.S. firms to partner with to build their understanding of the market and eventually operate as standalone players

Chinese investors put $33 billion into overseas real estate in 2016, up 53% from the previous year.

GO TO CHINA WITH ?

There is a major disconnect between Chinese investors and U.S. developers and marketers

owing to restricted Internet use and differences in culture, language,

time zone and market familiarity.

There is also increased scrutiny of investors taking money out of China, which requires additional education

and relationships.

IS YOUR CONDUIT TO THE CLOSED CHINESE MARKET.

TRD CAN HELP YOU BREAK THESE

BARRIERS

In the past three years, Chinese investors have maxed out government quotas for investment visas, including EB-5s.

Investors cannot be reached easily: regular

communications channels like Gmail, Google,

Facebook and Twitter are forbidden in China.

Investing through syndicates, LLCs, banks and

insurance companies is often the only option.

An increasingly wealthy population with money to

invest does not have access to relevant, trustworthy

information to do so.
