With the economies of China and the U.S. being so closely intertwined, the increasingly wealthy Chinese are eyeing the American real estate market as a good place to invest.
A high-end brokerage with deep roots in Fairfield County is now hoping to lure some of that cash.
William Pitt and Julia B. Fee Sotheby's International Realty has partnered with the online real estate website Caimeiju.com, which focuses on well-heeled Asian consumers, making it the exclusive agent for the real estate firm's offices in Connecticut, Westchester County, N.Y., and Berkshire County, Mass.
Launched in 2009, Caimeiju.com provides services for U.S. real estate agents, including translation of listings into Chinese and a circulation of listings among real estate associates in China. Caimeiju translates both as "selecting a beautiful residence" and "selecting an American residence."
