Chinese take capital abroad to Emerging Markets! Eugene Oregon should especially benefit.

Almost 61 per cent of those surveyed said they planned to increase their overseas holdings in the next two years.
Significantly, wealthy Chinese are not motivated by chasing higher returns when they park their savings abroad. Most respondents expected a return of a maximum of 5 per cent on their investments.
Instead, they are chasing safe havens, such as property and insurance schemes, cited as the top two destinations for cash.
This is driving wealthy Chinese to invest their savings abroad on an unprecedented scale, making China a top exporter of wealth on top of its existing status as number one exporter of manufactured goods.
The US was the preferred destination for 42 per cent of survey respondents seeking a safe place for their cash. Its robust economy, coupled with looser visa restrictions and high quality education is making it a magnet for China’s wealthy class. Next ranked were Hong Kong, Australia, Canada and the UK.
Almost 77 per cent of those surveyed owned at least one overseas home. North America is the biggest draw: half of the top 10 cities in which our respondents had purchased residential properties are either in the US or Canada.
That in many cases is linked to a second factor driving the outbound push by wealthy Chinese: securing a western education for their children, and at the same time acquiring foreign passports.
Many parents are buying apartments in college towns for their children with 38 per cent of respondents citing helping with their offspring’s education as their top motivation for investing overseas.
Long Island, a wealthy region east of New York City, has in recent years seen an influx of Chinese home buyers seeking to tap the area’s high-quality public schools.
FT Confidential surveyed 77 wealthy investors, including high net worth individuals with more than Rmb6m ($950,000), and so-called mass affluent ones with between Rmb600,000 and Rmb6m to invest. It also spoke to immigration firms, private banks, overseas property brokers and auction houses.

Understanding the tax advantages and disadvantages of homeownership #realestate #taxadvantage #taxes #housing #market

It’s no secret that some of the major perks of homeownership are the tax write-offs and advantages that follow the purchase. In fact, according to a 2015 survey by the National Association of Realtors, 80% of homebuyers see homeownership as a good investment, and 43% think it’s better than investing in the stock market. Reaping the rewards of mortgage interest and property tax deductions is just one way to think of your home as an investment. But there are even more real estate–related tax advantages and disadvantages that can slip under a new homeowner’s radar. It can be relatively easy to trigger tax liabilities or perks (and then fail to claim them) on that new piece of  Eugene, Or, real estate . This is why it’s essential to touch base with your tax pro before every real estate transaction, no matter how minor a question you may have. Sometimes planning and timing make a major difference in the financial impact of a real estate–related tax; other times, ...

Team Thayer Real Estate House Flipping Traps! #flippinghouses #eugeneoregon #oregon #housing #market #realestate

If you’ve got several leads waiting to turn into potential deals, you can’t wait for one to suddenly come knocking at your door. Successful real estate house flippers have one trait in common: they place an emphasis on proper planning. Once you’ve secured a deal, you must decide what kind of rehab you will perform. Will you conduct a few simple cosmetic upgrades (like these  10 rehab projects you finish in one weekend )? Or, is the home nice enough to sell after  an easy prehab ? Are there structural damages that will require you to carry out more major renovations? Will you focus on implementing environmentally friendly renovations  – also known as “greenhabbing” – so that you  qualify for certain tax benefits ? Once you’ve determined your strategy, it is important to ask yourself these specific questions before diving into the construction action: What are the current market conditions in my area? What does my ideal buyer look like? Does my marketing cam...
