Red hot real estate

Just after lunchtime, Chen Chenghuan pops into Great Century House, a property agency in Xiamen, Fujian province. The 44-year-old has just returned from driving his clients around at Xiamen port. In 2004, Chen, a native of Jinmen, in Taiwan province, opened his property agency in Xiamen. He is used to catering to clients from Jinmen, an island covering some 150 sq km near Xiamen.
