So, we weren’t a hundred percent sure on where to post this. But Shanghai Real Estate seemed the most fitting.
A complete walk through on what to expect when buying real estate in Shanghai as a foreigner, the process and the fees and payments.

Not a usual post but I thought this might help a lot of you out there looking to buy a property in China’s No 1 Cosmopolitan Jungle.

Well, Step .1 is to get in touch with the best Real Estate agency out there, and check some awesome place at their Sales Site.

:-)

But all kidding aside, number one is really, really find a good broker, there is regulations and restrictions, and if you’re not best bro’s with your company superior and HR (for income statement), make sure you get the guys to make a check on what loans you can get.

Step 1
Souting.
Finding a house can be easy or tough, if you know what you want it’ll be easy, for newer place you’ll find stuff to compare but for rare pads such as old houses and super exclusive boutique compounds you may find that the one place  you’re looking at is the only one for sale.

You won’t be able to compare it with different style housing next door or in the area in most cases as they vary so much…….read the full guide to buying property in Shanghai.
