Everyone, from average Chinese citizens to the biggest multinational corporations, is likely to invest directly or indirectly in China’s real estate at one time or another, local construction generally advances in leaps and bounds and China represents the largest source of foreign real estate investment globally. These circumstances coupled with the government’s unique viewpoint and policies on property make for a constantly attractive yet sensitive and challenging environment for real estate and construction businesses.
