2011年 12月, EB5商业房地产投资会议
(Jia Hu edited 胡佳稿)
The Artisan Business Group hosted a national real estate conference. There were many experts there discussing about EB-5 finance for commercial real estate.
The federal EB-5 Regional Center Pilot Program has been created to
allow foreign investors to invest in commercial enterprises in the
U.S. in exchange for a chance for them and their families to become
legal permanent residents in the U.S. As a result of this unique
federal program, several billion dollars in investment has brought
into various commercial real estate projects and tens of thousands of
American jobs have been created throughout the country.

11月2011与移民局局长的对话与解读
(Jia Hu edited 胡佳稿)
Recently, the president Patty Chen had joined three conversations meeting in two months about the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program with the Director of USCIS, Alejandro Mayorkas, who has done an excellent job of highlighting the importance of the EB-5 visa program in a fast pace, and senior members of the USCIS leadership team. These conversations demonstrated USCIS had made important progress to EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program. It lets USCIS hear more voices from investors and make improvements, also lets our company, as a investor representative, have a chance to state the concerns to USCIS directly.
The first conversation was in the middle of September, 2011, focusing on economic development in the context of the EB-5 (Immigrant Investor) program. They also think this kind of small group discussion complemented the existing quarterly EB-5 engagement program. The following day, Patty had another conversation with them, also a more in-depth discussion, about discrete policy issues related to the EB-5 program. The last conversation was a month later, President Patty asked Alejandro why USCIS decided to accelerate the approving projects to 15 days in Regional centers, and what the influence will be to the existing processing time to EB-5 visa applicants, in particular the time of I-526 petitions. All these questions will have direct impact to the EB-5 investors, either from business decision aspect or from investing aspect.
USCIS Director Alejandro Mayorkas mentioned USCIS has engaged with internal and external stakeholders to learn of their concerns regarding current adjudication policies and practices. USCIS also seeks stakeholder input on these foundational issues before providing greater detail and addressing additional issues. This draft memorandum is a work in progress, and it is shared now to obtain valuable real-time input and to define a collaborative approach with the stakeholder community. The draft memorandum is not operative and will not guide adjudication decisions until it is published in complete and final form. Current policy memoranda continue to guide our adjudications.In response to the stakeholders input, USCIS had announced the adjudication process reforms, including:
- The introduction of direct e-mail contact between the Regional Center petitioners and the USCIS adjudication team. This reform already has been instituted;
- The introduction of accelerated process and premium processing for certain applicants and petitions;
- The use of an expert Decision Board to assist adjudicators in rendering final adjudications on Regional Center petitions;
- Hired economists with business analysis expertise to help guide and support the USCIS adjudication team;
- Hired a consulting firm to help further reengineer the EB-5 adjudication process to deliver greater efficiencies.
第一次谈话发生在2011年9月中,主要集中讨论EB – 5投资移民计划所处的大经济环境。同时双方都认为这种能与投资人进行直接对话补充了现在3个月才一次的参与计划。第二天,与移民局局长又进行了一次更深入的对话,主要就EB – 5计划相关的具体政策问题进行了讨论。最后一次谈话是 在11月9日,帕蒂向移民局局长提出她的疑问,移民局怎么样尽快实行15天加快审批区域中心的项目,以及对现在EB – 5 (條件綠卡)签证申请处理时间的影响,尤其是I – 526处理时间的影响。因为这些都将直接影响到投资申请人的决定,不管是从商业决策的角度还是投资的角度来说。具体情况可参看美亚商旅集团网页这项措施到底能减少多少申请等待时间(www.PattyCProperty.com), 获拨打美亚咨询电话781-690-3107。
对话中,移民局局长提到移民局正加强内部和外部的利益相关者的参与,让其了解他们关于当前的审判政策和相关做法。移民局还征询利益相关者在这些基本问题上的看法和要求,以便提供更细节的解决问题的方法。这个备忘录草案目前还在修改中,是共享的。USCIS可以获得宝贵的实时要求,还可以实时与利益相关者合作。要注意的是备忘录草案并不会影响移民局目前的决定,直道它以完整的和最终的形式发表后。对于回应利益相关者的要求,移民局已宣布在备忘录的新的改革措施:
•建立区域中心的申请者和移民局裁决团队之间的直接电子邮件联系方式。这项改革已经被立法;
•对加快申请进程和优先申请进行了详细介绍;
•使用专家决策委员会,以协助区域中心申请的最终判定;
•聘请有商业分析经验的专业经济学家,帮助引导和支持美国移民局裁定团队;
•聘请了一家咨询公司,以帮助进一步重新设计EB – 5评审过程来提高效率。
移民局还将进行其他的改革。(这些具体的措施到底会给EB-5项目的申请带来多少变化,详情请咨询美亚集团,电话联系方式781-690-3107。)同时移民局审查了各种目前EB – 5政策,并决定将所有的备忘录合并成一个总体政策备忘录,而且备忘录将吸取利益相关者的建设性意见并反映之前颁布的各种备忘录的经验教训。由于问题的大数量和复杂性,移民局将使用不断更新的方式来做这个单一的EB – 5政策备忘录,靠不断征求意见来保证政策备忘录草案的前进。请聯繫:

Can The China Real Estate ETF Survive Bubble Fears?
中国房地产ETF能否在泡沫经济中存活?
Over the past decade, China has become an incredible economic force, surging from an investment afterthought to one of the key nations for trade in the world today. The country is currently the world’s second biggest economy from a GDP perspective and exports more products, in dollar terms, than any other nation on earth. Yet, with incredible growth comes difficult choices as well; inflation in the country has begun to settle at uncomfortable levels with recent readings putting the year-over-year change above 6%(more in the above link).
在过去的十年中,中国已成为一个令人难以置信的经济力量,但是伴随其增长的还有艰难的抉择。通货膨胀到达让人不安的水平,年变化近6%。高涨的价格和中国相对松懈的反应对策可能导致比许多分析家预测的更严重的后果。问题的根源在中国政府及其他们强烈的恐惧,担心经济增长速度的大幅下降会带来经济急剧放缓。为得到民众的更多支持,中国政府采用“新加坡模式”,把经济高速增长作为首要任务。 由于这一政策以及各种投资的限制,许多中国人觉得他们别无选择,只有把自己的钱投放到楼市。这使得全国信贷占全国GDP的200%,在短短的三年内番了近一倍。由于信贷的滥用,房子现在价格高的离谱,与个人收入相比,在一些沿海地区比例甚至达到22:1。投资者应注意,这个比例远远超过以往任何美国楼市泡沫经历。 中国房地产ETF(TAO)随着AlphaShares中国房地产指数(用来衡量和监测公开交易的公司的表现)在过去两周已经失去了接近13.5%的价值。这些沉重的损失超过任何时间的任何其他产品,这表明对中国房地产市场的担心已浮出表面(全文在以上#1 link).

Regions within the United States, hit hard by the economic recession are actively seeking foreign investors to help create more jobs.

Quite a few investors from China are taking advantage of this opportunity(more in the above link).

A top Bay State developer said he’s not convinced that new condos will ever be built again in downtown Boston, especially since everyone is switching over to apartment towers in the wake of the luxury real estate market collapse.
“I assumed our 21-story residential building would be condominiums,” said Stephen Karp, chairman of New England Development, who expects to break ground on the Northern Avenue project at Pier 4 next spring. “But that market has changed so much over the past few years … we don’t think it will come back for a long time, and we don’t know if it will ever come back.”
Karp — who made his remarks to a packed meeting of the commercial real estate group NAIOP at the Renaissance Hotel yesterday — joined a panel of Seaport developers cheering the successes of Boston’s rejuvenated waterfront with a host of new restaurants and offices. But the enthusiasm was tempered with the realization that waterfront condos will have to wait.
Charles Reid, executive vice president of Boston Global Investors, the Boston-based group that expects to start construction next year on Seaport Square, a 6.5 million-square-foot, mixed-use development including residences, offices and retail shops, said the market is not ready for new condominiums. “The biggest four-letter word — beside bank — is condo,” Reid told the Herald. “No lender will finance condominiums right now. Our first phase will be 1,100 apartments.”
Developers say the glut of luxury units and sluggish sales have kept lenders at bay. Three major luxury projects in the downtown have struggled to sell out their buildings. The W Hotel & Residences on Stuart Street has sold just 46 of 123 units, the nearby Clarendon, closed on 66 of 107 units while 45 Province in Downtown Crossing has 44 of 150 units sold, according to the Warren Group.
John Drew, president of the Drew Co., who is planning a 2012 ground-breaking for Waterside Place — which includes a supermarket and 236 residential units across from the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center — said he switched the project from condos to apartments due to market changes.
But Drew said condos could be a part of future development. “Right now, there’s no interest by lenders in projects with hundreds of condos,” he said. “But the markets run in cycles and at some point, they will be back in favor.”
