With the Chinese realty sector passing the "golden 10 years" and entering the "silver 10 years", more Chinese companies have started to tap the United Kingdom property industry.

The investments take on different forms, as some acquire landmark buildings and others develop buildings for residential or commercial purposes.

Let us take a look at these companies and the investments they have announced.

China Construction Bank

In June 2014, the bank paid 110 million pounds to acquire 111 Old Broad Street, an office building in the City of London.
