Wow. That last graph is telling.

So, what causes the, in this case, Chinese money influx to move from place to place? Is there an inflection point where it becomes more cost effective to start buying up real estate elsewhere? What happens as the Chinese exist the housing market of an area they had been buying real estate? Do the people who had been pushed out start moving back in as prices fall, maybe bringing back a local economy?

...these are probably dumb questions but this is foreign to me...pinging veen too in case he has thoughts.
