http://money.cnn.com/2014/07/08/real_estate/home-sales-to-chinese/index.html?iid=HP_LN"Why are they buying? Only 39% of Chinese buyers said they intended to use their purchases as their main home.
Some may buy condos for their children attending U.S. colleges. They hope that, in addition to saving on dormitory fees, they can make benefit from home price appreciation by the time the students graduate.
Others are becoming landlords, buying cheap homes in distressed economic pockets, like Detroit, and renting them out."

This sounds like the scare when Japanese investors were buying property 20-30 years ago. Everyone thought America was selling out to the Japanese.
Having worked in Asia for several years, the only thing I would suggest is that the US have reciprocal land purchase agreements with every country. It's sickening when someone from any Asian country can buy property here, but in most Asian countries we can not buy property.

Lets go to WalMart and buy more cheap, plastic junk so we can help more Chinese buy probably the only tangible asset we have left in this country.
