Chinanews, Beijing, July 4 – Although Chinese government has taken a series of measures in order to cool down the heat in real estate market, sales prices of both new and used houses still increased by the largest range ever last May. Experts point out that government measures might help in curbing1 the fast rise of housing prices, however it will not make real estate market take a hard landing.
In May, housing prices in major Chinese cities soared. In Shenzhen, the housing price hit new records day after day. Information shows that in May, the housing prices in 70 Chinese cities rose by 6.4%. “In many cities, residential2 houses have to be built in suburban3 areas. The average growth of housing price across China was 6.4%, yet in reality, housing prices have grown at a rate far higher than this,” said Gu Yunchang, deputy director of the China Real Estate and Residential Housing Research Institute. Due to the soaring price, an office worker who works in a real estate agency told this reporter that his annual salary could reach one million yuan. In Beijing, due to the high housing prices, many people flock to the countryside to buy houses in villages, although the property ownership right of these houses can not be guaranteed. Since the second half of last year, the floor space of new commercial houses, the building areas of these houses, and the area of houses that have finished construction had increased moderately. During the first half of this year, demand for residential houses kept increasing. As a result, supply of commercial houses became relatively4 insufficient5. According to the latest figures issued by the central bank, during the first four months of this year, the total area of new houses on sale was at least twice the total area of houses being built, while in the same period last year, the total area of houses sold was only 2.55 times the total area of houses being built. At the same time, the vacancy6 rate of commercial houses also declined by 0.8%. Since Chinese economy has been developing soundly, it is very unlikely that housing price will fall in the future. Right now, there are bubbles existing in the property market. What we can do now is to adjust the supply and demand structure in the housing market and to change the structure of housing supply, so that property market can also develop soundly, some experts say.
