The current craze for real estate is such that investors are running very nook and corner of the world in order to get the best returns. In 2006 only, global real estate funds have collected funds to the tune of over $55-billion.
With the exposure to the sector increasing, the pressure created by the increasing demand has led companies to look beyond their borders. Any of the deal which looks domestic in nature turns out to be international. Global investments are heading towards U.S followed by countries such as Germany, Britain, France and Japan.
This makes me wonder when this craze will end because if brakes are not applied at the appropriate time it would certainly cause the property bubble to burst with a bang.
