It's not just that house in a leafy US subdivision that interests Chinese investors - they may also be intrigued by a storefront in a shopping center, according to new report.
一份最新報(bào)告稱，中國(guó)投資者感興趣的不只是綠樹(shù)成蔭的美國(guó)住宅區(qū)的房屋，可能還有購(gòu)物中心的店面。
China was the top country of origin in both the buying and selling of US commercial real estate last year, according to the 2017 Commercial Real Estate International Business Trends report, which was released last Tuesday by the National Association of Realtors (NAR).
美國(guó)全國(guó)房地產(chǎn)經(jīng)紀(jì)人協(xié)會(huì)上周二發(fā)布的《2017年商業(yè)地產(chǎn)國(guó)際交易趨勢(shì)》報(bào)告顯示，去年，中國(guó)是美國(guó)商業(yè)地產(chǎn)的買(mǎi)家和賣(mài)家的最大來(lái)源國(guó)。
The top countries of origin for buyers were China (17%), Mexico (14%) and the UK and Venezuela (both at 7%), while sellers were typically from China (17%) or Brazil, Canada, France and Mexico (all at 10%).
美國(guó)商業(yè)地產(chǎn)買(mǎi)家的最大來(lái)源國(guó)是中國(guó)(17%)、墨西哥(14%)和英國(guó)及委內(nèi)瑞拉(均占7%)；賣(mài)家則通常來(lái)自中國(guó)(17%)或巴西、加拿大、法國(guó)及墨西哥(均占10%)。
"For many global investors - including Chinese buyers - US real estate markets offer portfoliodiversification, along with safety of capital and solid yields," said George Ratiu, NAR's directorof quantitative and commercial research and the author of the report.
該協(xié)會(huì)的定量商業(yè)研究主任、報(bào)告作者喬治·拉齊烏表示：“對(duì)于包括中國(guó)買(mǎi)家在內(nèi)的許多國(guó)際投資者來(lái)說(shuō)，美國(guó)房地產(chǎn)市場(chǎng)同時(shí)提供了投資組合多樣化、資本的安全性以及穩(wěn)定的收益�！�
"While top-tier cities like New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles have been attractinginvestment for a long time, with a shortage of inventory in those markets, many investorshave found favorable conditions in mid-tier and small-cap markets."
“雖然像紐約、舊金山和洛杉磯等這樣的一線城市長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)吸引了大量投資，但由于這些市場(chǎng)缺乏存貨，所以許多投資者反而在中小型市值市場(chǎng)找到了優(yōu)勢(shì)資源�！�
In an expanding economy like the US, demand for commercial space increases, which helps toattract Chinese and other foreign buyers, he said.
他表示，在像美國(guó)這樣的擴(kuò)張的經(jīng)濟(jì)體中，商業(yè)空間需求增加，這有助于吸引中國(guó)買(mǎi)家和其他外國(guó)買(mǎi)家。
