China plowed AUD23.7 billion in investment during the 2017\u201318 period, down from AUD38.9 billion in 2016\u201317.<\/p>\n<p>Approved investments across all sectors in Australia from the US hit AUD36.5 billion in 2017-18.<\/p>\n<p>Real estate constituted the second biggest investment sector in Australia. The sector accounted for 32 percent of all foreign investment, second only to services that took 39 percent and above mining (minerals) that comprised 10 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Victoria received 46 percent or majority of approved residential real estate investments, trumping New South Wales with 23 percent and Queensland with 17 percent.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Barring significant changes in the economic or policy environment, we believe Chinese buyer growth in 2019 will be flat and this group will continue to account for the largest share of all foreign buyer purchases, or about 22 percent of all foreign buying,&#8221; Law said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Juwai.com weighs in on latest FIRB
