Business sense suggests you try to buy property at the lowest possible price, but that was not the case for one property in Sydney, Australia.

It was just bought by Chinese buyers for A$88,888,888.88.

The number eight is considered lucky in Chinese as it sounds like the word for "prosperity".

Sydney follows Vancouver, London and Stockholm in the ranking which seeks to identify the world's most risky real estate markets.
