I was told by the real estate folks in CQ, that since we are married and the wifey is Chinese a USC name could appear IF IT WAS PAID FOR.And since I'm not loaded like you and we had to finance the our Condo. 10yrs I think.And since the apartment was the wifeys before we married only her name is on the title.Maybe the real estate folks just said this, thinking I was you and thought I was loaded and could pay cash for the Condo.I was also told other crap by the real estate folks, that turned out not to be the truth.Tell you anything to make the sale. Maybe Tony in SH can tell us the hold truth and nothing but the truth so help me SHEEP? Yeap we was out to lunch and dinner.....sorry for sleeping on the job, does this mean I'm fired? Bobby....

Dan R Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 Friends told me foreigners could buy a home in their name as long as it is their primary domicile and not investment property. Anything to this? This applied to a relative of theirs. But they are originally Chinese citizens now with Canadian and U.S. citizenship. But they said it applies to foreigners. The main concern of the Chinese government is to try and control real estate investment and speculation like Roger has done from abroad. Link to comment

As for your other point exactly how would one go about proving this house would be your primary domicile??? If they were formerly Chinese citizens then they probably also had Chinese ID cards. When we bought our places laopo was only asked for her ID card...not her hukou book (which we had with) or any other proof of citizenship like her passport. So are there holes in this law??? Does money perhaps talk??? Do monkeys swing from trees??? More later I'm sure... Link to comment

Tony_onrock Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 on the rules of foreigners buying house in CHina, read Circular 171. Do a search and you will find it. Link to comment

rogerluli Posted January 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 on the rules of foreigners buying house in CHina, read Circular 171. Do a search and you will find it. Tony this sounds like a foreigner who is buying a house for their personal use and will be living there for 1 year is home free. But you must have met these conditions and yet could not buy a house in your name... Link to comment
rogerluli Posted May 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 Okay plans changed... Now will be spending 9 months every year in Qionghai, Hainan (Sep-May) floating down the Wanquan River to the sea every day... Anybody want to buy a really nice place in Yunnan??? Here's a pic of our boat... http://i13.tinypic.com/52qg8ba.jpg Link to comment
rogerluli Posted May 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 Rog, that looks like one of the Emperor's boats. How did ya swing that? Laopo has friends... Trigg says it looks okay if I add fishin' chairs and a trolling motor... Link to comment

rogerluli Posted May 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Okay rather than lose my head over a boat I decided to downsize... http://i15.tinypic.com/63h4gft.jpg also with this boat I'll have no energy costs as it only requires one boatman (ME) to scull while laopo lounges under the canopy like Cleopatra going down the Nile... Trigg also said I can sneak up on fish in the shallows better and club all the carp we can eat... Link to comment
SirLancelot Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Hi Roger, do you know if there's any residential complexes for sale in Bo'ao? City proper QiongHai seems a bit far from the actual beach area but Bo'ao seems to be right on the coast. Or is Bo'ao like Yalong Bay of Sanya where there's only hotels and no private residential complexes? Thanks! Link to comment
