Chinese Investors Poised For Return
Pre-pandemic levels of interest expected by 2021.

The second half of 2021 will see Chinese investors re-enter the Australian real estate market according to Asian proptech company Juwai IQI.
The property platform’s Asian Investment in Australia Q1 report indicated Australian real estate attracts more than six times the Chinese GDP-adjusted investment when compared to the United States.
Chinese investment enquiries into Australian real estate fell nearly 20% last year, due to the pandemic. However, Juwai is forecasting that number will turnaround in the second half of 2021.
“Chinese real estate enquiry levels in Australia should begin to recover in 2021 as the pandemic recedes and Asian economic wealth-creation machines continue to bounce back from their early 2020 doldrums,” a Juwai spokesman said.
Further, the Juwai spokesman said post-pandemic Australia would continue to appeal to Chinese migrants, second-home buyers, tourists and students with foreign buying made by permanent residents to reach pre-pandemic levels by the end of 2022.

A 120-acre property 35 miles outside of Nashville, Tennessee, is selling off market for $30 million, making it the second-most-expensive home for sale in the state.
Located in Franklin, about 20 minutes from downtown, Cortina Farms is both a private residence and an event venue, which charges up to $56,000 to rent for the day, according to Compass, which is marketing the pocket listing. Erin Krueger holds the listing.
The only residence on the open market with a higher price in Tennessee is another Franklin property, which spans 749 acres and is asking $37.5 million.
Cortina Farms takes design inspiration from the Italian countryside, with stonework heavily featured around the verdant grounds.
The main house, with a stone exterior and a shingled roof, has approximately 2,500 square feet of living space, with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Outside, there’s a covered back porch, an outdoor grill, a pool and a hot tub. There are also two guest apartments off the main house, each with a bedroom and a full bathroom.
In addition to its event business opportunities, the property is also designed for an equestrian, with two barns featuring a total of 12 stalls. Near the stables are four large fenced pastures that equal about 10 acres.
Other amenities include a wellness center, a party barn with a catering kitchen, an amphitheater, two lakes stocked with bass and catfish, and a helipad. Scenic trails for walking, running or ATV riding meander throughout the property past creeks, mature trees and waterfalls, according to information provided by Compass.
The property last traded hands in 2021 for $9 million, records on PropertyShark show. The owners weren’t available for comment.
