Australia’s northern beaches are gaining interest from Chinese property buyers, reports the Daily Telegraph (15 December 2015). Juwai data reveals suburbs such as North Curl Curl, Manly, and Dee Why have seen a significant increase in property listings views, topped by Collaroy and Seaforth, which have seen a surge of 1,400% and 900% respectively. Simon Henry, Co-Founder of Juwai.com, said most Chinese buyers this year were caring more about the property than the location it was in, a view which challenges previous conceptions. “These buyers like convenience to amenities, water views, good feng shui, good schools and homes that are newly built, or at least well maintained,” he added.
