ACA does Chinese property investment

Last night, A Current Affair (ACA) presented a detailed segment on Chinese investment into Australian property, which showed frenetic auctions of pre-existing homes being undertaken in Mandarin, along with some interesting interviews with market participants, including Dave Platter who works for Juwai.com, which markets Australian homes direct to Chinese buyers.

Definitely worth a watch, and should place more heat on Australia’s ineffective and broken foreign investment regime.
