I'm sorry if there was any implication of bias against Asians as a group. I don't think I implied that at all, when did I call them shadowy? That smells of your own biases and perceptions. I was simply referencing the region of those I'm aware of. My neighbors home is owned by an investor from the Philippines. Three other houses on my block are owned by investors from China and are rental houses. This information can be confirmed by a simple property tax search.
