“…GC represents the proportion of Chinese nationals holding green cards out of a state's total number of green card holders, 10 data which are sourced from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. In addition, since obtaining access in Western countries to children's education is a major motivation for middle-class and wealthy investors investing in overseas properties, especially those from China (Robertson and Rogers, 2017; Rogers and Wiesel, 2018), we use per capita education expenditures (in constant 2012 US$) in each state. The data are obtained from the U.S. Department of Commerce's Census Bureau and is also lagged by one year.…”

“…To date, the literature has explored the linkages between migrant practices and the transnational mobility of property capital (Ho and Atkinson, 2018; Koh, 2021). It has also addressed the importance of ethnic connections in global capital flows and real estate investments (Kim, 2017; Rogers et al, 2015; Rogers and Wiesel, 2018). The explicit linkages between migrant mobility, the overseas diaspora, and real estate investment by institutional investors, however, have yet to be fully detailed.…”

Since the 2010s, foreign direct investment in real estate (FDIRE) by Mainland Chinese firms has emerged as a major force within global real estate markets, challenging Western investors’ traditional dominance. It is unclear, however, whether Mainland Chinese FDIRE is fueled by the same motivations as those of investors from advanced economies, which to date have represented both the primary investors and main objects of study. One major difference may be that Mainland Chinese investment originates in an institutional environment comprised of strong state intervention and social networks important for fostering business and ethnic ties. To uncover the potentially unique determinants and heterogeneity of Mainland Chinese corporate real estate investors, we build and analyze a state-level panel dataset of Mainland Chinese FDIRE by state-owned enterprises and private enterprises in the U.S. from 2010 to 2017. Our empirical results reveal the importance of Chinese migrants in promoting Mainland Chinese real estate investment, especially by private enterprises. Our findings also demonstrate that at the state level, Mainland Chinese FDIRE exhibits few agglomerative tendencies.
