Now in its third year, Property Showcase China 2015 – Connect With Australia,aims to develop long-term relationships with Chinese investors and assist them in assessing the properties which are most suitable for them.
“Our mission in 2015 is to showcase large-scale agri-investment opportunities from regional Australia to assist the sector expand its production base and capitalise on emerging market opportunities – the showcase will help us achieve this,” explained Mark Brooke, chief executive of Landmark Harcourts.
Fresh produce orchards are among the 10 properties on show from 11-16 August. Paul Reid, a Landmark Harcourts agent for the state of Victoria, said the showcase was extremely timely.
“China has seen a huge amount of growth in wealth and demand in the agriculture sector,” explained Reid. “The showcase will present unique Australian properties to Chinese investors, which could boost the outcome for vendors that they would otherwise unlikely to achieve from local investors.
“In addition, Chinese investors have access to advice from local Chinese agents and I believe that this increases the trust which in the Chinese culture goes a long way in securing a sale for our vendors.”
