Vancouver, Silicon Valley
In North America, moderate weather, good schools and established Chinese
communities are drawing buyers to cities such as Vancouver, which had the
third-highest housing costs among English-speaking cities worldwide in 2010,
according to Canada’s Frontier Centre for Public Policy. Hong Kong and
Sydney were first and second.
Sales of detached homes, townhouses and condominiums in metropolitan
Vancouver climbed 32 percent in March from the previous month, and were just
below a record for the month of 4,371 transactions set in 2004. The median
price of a detached house in greater Vancouver rose 13 percent in 2010 to a
record C$774,000 ($792,000) from C$685,000 at the end of 2009, according to
the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver.
In the U.S., Chinese buyers have helped support home sales and prices in
Silicon Valley and Hawaii, while they are an increasing presence in Las
Vegas and New York, according to local brokers. They accounted for 9 percent
of U.S. home purchases by foreigners in the 12 months ended in March of
both 2010 and 2011, up from 5 percent in 2009, according to a survey
released in May by the National Association of Realtors, a Chicago-based
trade group. That’s second to Canadians, who accounted for 23 percent of
international sales.
Prices Climb Back
Sales of existing single-family detached houses in Cupertino, California --
where Apple Inc. (AAPL) is based -- rose 21 percent in the first quarter
from a year earlier, and the median home price climbed 2.1 percent to $1
million, putting it 13 percent below its 2007 record, according to DataQuick
, a San Diego-based provider of real estate statistics. Nationally, prices
on comparable properties are down 37 percent from the peak in 2006.
California residential resales and median prices also rose in Palo Alto,
where Facebook Inc. is based and which is adjacent to Stanford University;
in Mountain View, where Google Inc. has its headquarters; and in Sunnyvale,
Atherton, San Carlos and Los Gatos, according to DataQuick.
It’s almost impossible to find two-to-four-unit apartment buildings to buy
in Cupertino partly because of high demand from non-U.S. buyers, primarily
Chinese, said Jim Carter, a real estate agent at Intero Real Estate Services
in Los Altos, California.
Circumventing Currency Rules
“If the son or daughter doesn’t have enough money, what happens is the
parents or grandparents from China will help them fund the deal,” he said.
“In most places, it’s all cash. They just transfer the money, like, boom.
”
The annual limit for Chinese citizens to buy foreign currencies is $50,000,
according to China’s State Administration of Foreign Exchange. It’s an
obstacle many can get around.
“Most of these buyers are rich and they have their trade companies or rep
offices in Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur or Singapore,” said Larry Hu, a Shanghai
-based director of the residential department for Knight Frank LLP. “Those
places don’t have currency controls, so they can pay via their companies’
offshore accounts.”
Value of Schools
At Coldwell Banker’s residential office in Cupertino, “we’re seeing a
huge number of all-cash transactions, and most of those are from mainland
China,” said Nina Yamaguchi, managing broker. “The thing that draws the
Asians here is the schools are so highly touted. Cupertino is certainly not
beautiful. It doesn’t have wonderful architecture.”
Yamaguchi estimates that about one-third of her firm’s recent residential
deals have been all cash, primarily at the two ends of the market -- the
most expensive properties and distressed sales.
“I’ve been managing this group of people for over 17 years and we’ve
always had a strong Asian demographic, but now it seems even more so,”
Yamaguchi said.
Checking new listings the third week of May, she saw a house for sale in
near-mint condition located in the Prospect High School district. Meanwhile,
about a mile (1.6 kilometers) up the road, a smaller house in worse shape
listed for $350,000 more because the owner would qualify for Lynbrook High
School, which scores higher on the state academic performance index, she
said. | C********e

Cash deal has been seen in Cupertino area qutie often in the last year or so.
I even noticed one in Sunnyvale (Cupertino school though), closed in 3 days, which most likely means cash offer.
It appears to have something to do with China's policies to cool off real estate market in China starting about a year ago.
Those people can't buy in China so they come to buy international.
The impact in bay area is very limited, only probably to Cupertino, and perhaps Sunnyavle.
Vancouver, BC is much more affected by this wave of Chinese money.
Crazy over there.
