Stocks, Commodities and Forex Trading News Stories Beverly Hills Land Acquired by Overseas Chinese Investors October 7, 2010 by Samuel Chong LOS ANGELES - Joint Treasure Ltd, formed by a group of Hong Kong- and
Singapore-based Chinese investors acquired on Tuesday a former eight-acre
landmark property in Beverly Hills for US$148.3 million, less than a third
of its sale price of around US$500 million in 2007. The
site was purchased by New Pacific Realty for $33.5 million in 2004, then
sold to Nicholas and Christian Candy three years later for $500 million.
The brothers planned to transform the property into luxury condos, but
defaulted on their loan. The property fell into foreclosure in this year,
and was taken over by Carlos Slim’s Banco Inbursa, the primary lender.
