Synopsis:
Why invest in Asia?
Although the worst financial crisis in
decades rocked Asia, hitting global demand for its exports, the forces
of population growth, mass urbanization, and wealth accumulated over
decades are helping to bolster domestic demand. The trend can be seen
everywhere in cities brimming with activity, through increased car
ownership, Internet and telecommunications usage, rising consumer sales
and a relatively new trend mass home ownership.
Whether it s the
neon splendour of Tokyo, or French colonial styled Hanoi, author Tim
Murphy takes a top-down, numbers-approach to property investment.
Backed by statistics, colourful anecdotes and real-life investment
successes, he examines how the different Asian macro-economic
landscapes can yield opportunity for every type of investor from the
risk-taker to the prudent-minded. And his 10 steps to buying off-plan
property in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore and other countries where he
has personally invested, serves as a methodical checklist for both
first-time, and seasoned property buyers.
When the world shook on
its financial foundations in 1929, the phrase when America sneezes, the
world catches a cold seized public imagination but now, a continent is
turning that adage on its head in the wake of the sub-prime fallout. In
Turning Crisis into Profit: How to Make Money in Asian Property, Murphy
delivers a candid, revealing read on why Asia can be the promised land
for a properly prepared real estate investor.
