Chinese term or phrase: 纯投资型的购房者
对于纯投资型的购房者来说，应该选择在中心商圈购房。对于先自住再投资的购房者来说，倒未必要去几个圈中扎堆。

如今，中国人成为海外房地产市场的重要买家，其中“纯投资型”的购房者越来越多。一些普通投资者甚至开始“团购美国土地”，希望通过“炒地”获取较高的投资收益。

English translation:investment buyers
Explanation:
or property investors.

But these concepts are usually verbal in English, so I would consider changing the grammar slightly:

"If buying purely as an investment, you should be thinking about the central commercial districts. But if you're buying to live, and only secondarily as an investment, then you don't necessarily have to cram into the crowded centre."
