The story

Xinyuan is a real estate developer building large-scale residential projects for middle-income consumers in China's Tier II cities. The company was founded in 1997 in Zhengzhou, China and puts up developments aimed at providing middle-income consumers with a community lifestyle. Xinyuan's business model emphasizes high asset turnover, efficient working capital management and strict cost control.

Xinyuan's projects in China extend to Tier II cities: Chengdu, Hefei, Jinan, Kunshan, Suzhou, and Zhengzhou. They have a total of 26 projects and more than 3 million square meters of GFA developed, under construction and under planning.

On December 7, 2005, Forte (Group) Co. Ltd announced that its subsidiary Shanghai Xinyuan Real Estate Development Co. Ltd had successfully acquired 30% stake of Shanghai Baisi Property Co.

Xinyuan's holding company is based in the Cayman Islands. On 18 April 2008, Xinyuan's corporate headquarters was relocated from Zhengzhou to Beijing. On 12 December 2007, Xinyuan made an initial public offering, becoming the first Chinese real estate developer to become listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Underwritten by Merrill Lynch, Deutsche Bank Securities, and Allen & Co, Xinyuan's initial public offering raised US$245m in capital. China Analyst reports that Xinyuan's stock is the 2nd fastest growing within its respective industry as of March 2010.

Xinyuan was selected as one of "China's Sixty Best Employers for 2007" in a survey conducted by China Central Television.

In 2009, Xinyuan purchased a portion of the real estate portfolio of prolific Brooklyn real estate developer Isaac Hager who declared bankruptcy. In 2012, the company entered the United States real estate market as XIN Development Group International, Inc. With a development in Brooklyn, New York, it became the first Chinese developer with a major project in the United States.

In 2017, Lizhou Zhang succeeded Xinqi Wang as CEO.

On January 7, 2024, the company's US division declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. On April 15, 2025, creditors pushed Xinyuan Real Estate into bankruptcy for the second time in a year in order to collect on bonds due back in 2024.
