【禁闻】中国富豪见房就买 多国房价飞涨

【新唐人2014年12月17日讯】近年来,在中国大陆一股海外买房热潮正在悄然兴起,越来越多的中国+富豪们动辄一掷百万、千万美金,在美国、澳洲、英国、加拿大等国购买房产,造成这些国家房地产价格不断飞涨,甚至一些地区出现泡沫化的迹象,一度引发当地居民的不满和抗议。

据《法国国际广播电台》报导,美国房地产协会的年终报告显示,今年,加州旧金山湾区平均房价比去年上涨了23%。从2012年至今,旧金山湾区的房价涨幅已经高达50%。而房价疯涨背后的推手,就是中国购房者。

报导称,游走于美国各个高级住宅区的中国购房者,“见房就买”,出手大方,有些甚至可以一次性以现金付清。近一年间,中国买家花掉了220亿美元用于购房,其中35%投放到了加州,从而导致该地区房价暴涨。

实际上,不仅仅是美国,澳大利亚、加拿大、英国以及很多欧洲国家都遭遇了同样的“中国+富豪抢房热”。

中国人为什么如此热衷于海外购房?投资、移民、子女教育、资金转移、大陆房地产泡沫、环境不安全等等,专家学者们说法不一。

美国南卡罗莱纳大学艾肯商学院终身教授谢田:“我觉得说明中国国内的生活环境、商业环境、政治环境、再加上自然环境越来越恶化,这些富人,大部分富人实际上也是在这个社会中精英阶层的人士,也能够接触到上层人士,他们可能更加清楚的认识到中共统治、中国的政局从根子上会出现巨大的变化。在灾难来之前先跳出来,这是一般富人常用的办法,他们有这个能力,也有这个资源这样做。”

美国中文杂志《中国事务》总编辑伍凡认为,将钱用于海外购房的人群,主要分为中共官员和商人两大类。

美国中文杂志《中国事务》总编辑伍凡:“第一中国的政治不稳定,‘反腐’、‘打老虎’,甚至于对民企的盘剥,各种各样的税收。所以一些贪官污吏首先要逃跑,那些民营企业家受不了税收,他也要逃跑。”

然而,疯狂的中国买家,也给美国等国的楼市带来了巨大的冲击,各地房价被大幅度推高。数据显示,截止到2014年2月,美国房价已连续14个月持续上涨,加拿大3月份平均房屋价格为40.14万元,比去年同期上升了6%﹔澳大利亚咨询企业RP数据公司发布的数据显示,过去12个月中,悉尼的房价涨了16%,墨尔本涨了11%。

英国《金融时报》6月13号的报导称,今年世界各地的商业地产交易规模预计将增长15%,达到6000亿美元,这在很大程度上要“归功于”中国人的海外“投资”大幅度增长。

中国的海外炒房热导致的房价上涨,使得很多地区的居民受到了严重影响。加拿大、澳大利亚民众纷纷要求政府出台限制中国人购房的政策。据《法广》报导,在旧金山湾区,因房价飞涨而无力买房的工薪阶层不断举行抗议活动。

谢田:“会带来些影响,因为就像报导里面提出的,在旧金山有些地方这些人买了房子以后,也没人来住。他们实质上,只是把根子扎在这,或者留着一个后路,狡兔三窟。但是在中国国内他现在还没有盘点清楚,或者还在继续捞钱、继续赚钱。他们这样做法实际上把各当地房地产市场给哄抬起来。而一般美国的民众收入没有赶上。”

目前,一些媒体的观点指出,美国楼市有可能会因房价过度上涨出现“房市泡沫”。但美国南卡罗莱纳大学艾肯商学院终身教授谢田认为,现在预测美国房地产“泡沫”为时尚早,因为中国财富只集中在少数人身上,富豪数量有限,加上中共正在进行内部清洗,不足以形成强大的热潮使房市真正泡沫化,顶多会撑高个别地区的房价。

China’s Wealthy Buyers Push House Prices Higher in Multiple Countries

ANCHOR:
In recent years, an overseas house-buying boom has
quietly risen.
More and more Chinese tycoons spent a few million or even tens
of millions of dollars in real estate in the United States, Australia,
Britain, Canada and other countries, resulting in soaring real estate
prices in these countries and even bubbles in some areas.
This has triggered discontentment and protests by local residents.

Reporter:
According to Radio France Internationale reports,
the US Real Estate Association 2014 annual report reveals
that the average housing price in the San Francisco Bay Area
of Californiarose 23 percent over the last year.
From 2012 to date, housing prices in the San Francisco Bay Area
have increased by 50 percent.
The driving force behind skyrocketing prices is Chinese buyers.

The report says that Chinese buyers searched in high-end
residential areas in the US.
They generously s"buy any house they see.”
Some can even pay a one-time cash payment.
Over the past year, Chinese buyers spent US $22 billion
to purchase real estate.
35 percent of that has flowed into California,
causing skyrocketing housing prices in the area.

In fact, not just the United States, but Australia, Canada,
the UK and many European countries have suffered
the same “hot house-buying tide launched by Chinese tycoons."

Why are Chinese people so keen
to become overseas house buyers?
Experts have differing opinions, among them investment,
immigration, children’s education, funds transfer,
the mainland real estate bubble, unsafe environment and more.

Tenured professor Xie Tian, University of South Carolina Aiken
School of Business: “I think China’s domestic living environment,
business environment, and political environment
coupled with the natural environment are all getting worse.
These wealthy people are actually the elite of this society,
and can come into contact with the upper class.
They may more clearly recognize that the ruling
of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and China’s
political situation will dramatically change
fundamentally.
Before the disaster, they took the usual way of rich people.

This is a common approach in general
the rich have the ability and the resources to do so."

Chief-editor of Chinese-American magazine China Affairs
Wu Fan believes that the overseas buyers who are buying homes
overseas can be divided into two major categories –
Chinese officials and businessmen.

American Chinese magazine China Affairs Chief-Editor Wu Fan:
“First China’s political situation is instable with “anti-corruption,"
“tigers," and even exploitation of non-state owned companies
with a variety of taxes.
So some corrupt officials need to run from China.

Those private entrepreneurs who cannot stand the taxation
would run away."

However, the crazy Chinese buyers have caused a massive impact
on real estate prices in the US.
The real estate prices have been pushed higher.

According to data, as of February 2014, US housing prices have
continued to rise for 14 consecutive months.
The average Canadian housing price in March was 401,400
yuan, an increase of 16 percent over last year.
Australian consulting firm RP released data showing that
over the past 12 months, Sydney house prices rose 16 percent,
up 11 percent in Melbourne.

Financial Times in Britain reported on June 13 of 2014 that
commercial real estate transactions around the world are expected
to grow 15 percent to $600 billion, which is largely “thanks to"
largely substantial growth in overseas Chinese investment.

China’s buyers investing in overseas real estate has led
to rising house prices.
Many residents of the region have been severely affected.

People from Canada and Australia have asked the government
to introduce a policy to limit Chinese home-buyers.
According to Radio Freedom International, working-class
in the San Francisco Bay Area who are unable to buy a house
due to soaring housing prices continue to hold protest activity.

Xie Tian: “This will bring some impacts as reported.

Some wealthy Chinese people purchased houses
which were previously unoccupied in these areas.
This in fact placed the root here.
One rabbit can have three holes as home.
But in China she was not yet clear about what she should do,
or whether they should continue to make money.
Actually, such a practice increases the prices
of local real estate market.
But the general American populace
cannot catch up with the income."

Currently, some of the media’s point of view t point out
that the US housing market is likely to see housing bubbles
due to the fast increase in prices.

But tenured professor, University of South Carolina Aiken
Dr. Frank Xie, believes that it’s too soon to forecast
the US real estate bubble.

China’s wealth is commanded by
a small number of people.
With ongoing cleansing within the Chinese Communist Party,
at most, these wealthy persons will only push high prices
in individual areas.

There’s not enough for a strong housing market boom
resulting in a bubble.
