Smart Calls with Smartkarma | From Crisis to Opportunity: Investing in China's Property Services
While headlines focus on China’s troubled developers, the country’s property management sector operates on a fundamentally different model: asset-light, cash-generative, and increasingly independent from distressed parents.
Pranav Rao speaks with Insight Provider Jacob Cheng to unpack:
• How property management differs from traditional real estate development
• The three key revenue drivers, including high-margin community services
• Two SOE-backed standouts: China Overseas Property and CR MixC
• Governance and related-party risks and examples investors should know
• How leading PM firms are decoupling from troubled developers and diversifying their income base
