China is very difficult to create good contacts and there property is only just opening up to the world, many areas foreigners can not buy , unless you set up a company in Hong Kong and transfer the money that way . At this stage we are not negotiating in China for clients at has not yet 100% stabilised (the government can easily change laws retrospectively, meaning you lose your property). If you are interested in deals in the great land of Oz , ping me an email and i will ensure you are sent some sample deals , currently available

I have recently purchased in Richmond myself , it is a private company and the properties are only my personal portfolio, not my companies. I negotiate everything in bulk and ocassionally we are offered projects to clear to assist with construction finance needs or pre mortgagee or the developer wants to sell quick because sales are holding up there next project . I prefer to use rebates (personal preference) as it maintains the vals in the project , it is favourable for depreciation purposes and for tax reasons. I currently have offices in Hong Kong , China (both new) , Singapore , Melbourne and hope to open in Perth in the next 2months.I also have staff at the world property expo in Dubai (just finished) All i do is package deals for investors and benefit as a company of course and buy in the projects myself, it becomes addictive. Eg. Richmond original sales price $540K ( i believe to be too much ) my clients pay $415K ($125K rebate plus receive $100/wk for 4yrs ) or take the annuity as a discount i do not care. the rent will be approx $440/wk + $100/wk ($540wk) . we then finance the purchase price at 80% of $540K to give $416K and the only cost is stamps ,(still under constuction so they are quite low) and you have just purchased a $540K property which you owe $416K giving $540wk for the first 4 years in a bluechip suburb , that $150K property will create $253K equity in 10yrs at 10.4% this would create $912K , i love capital growth:)
PS sorry for the long winded speel but i thought it appropriate to explain in some detail and explain i am talking from actual deals

Many of the major builders and land developers are currently struggling with sales at the moment. Dependant on the area it is a fantastic deal if you buy well. Always remember you don’t get if you don’t ask, and you should ask for a 10% rebate included in the price. Make sure you are not over paying. The 10% can then be contributed to your deposit.Also ensure there is a make good clause so that the property is maintained 100% as it will have high levels of traffic. .How do i know you ask I negotiate property as a full time job ,it is horrible:) You are not doing this to make money for the developer you are doing it to build your own personal wealth.Good luck
