In Vancouver, the second most in demand city, inquiries more than doubled to $2.5 billion and Quebec had the biggest jump in interest, with $764 million searches, more than triple the number recorded in 2014.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chinese investment also has soared in countries such as Australia and the United States. The number of Chinese buyers completing on sales for commercial and residential property in Australia has doubled to US$18.4 billion in the 12 months to June 2015, according to the country\u2019s Foreign Investment Review Board.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the United States Chinese buyers have surpassed Canadians as the top foreign buyers of homes, with $28.6 billion of deals in the 12 months to March 2015, according to figures published by the National Association of Realtors.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.propertywire.com\/news\/global-news\/chinese-real-estate-buyers-2016041411797.html\" target=\"_blank\">More Chinese Buyers Than Ever Looking for Real Estate in Canada<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0by Property Wire<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An increasing number of real estate investors from China are looking to buy property in Canada with cities like Vancouver and Toronto proving popular, new data suggests.
