In July, the average price of newly built commercial housing in 70 large and medium-sized cities was 0.3% month-on-month and 4.1% year-on-year, down 0.1 and 0.2 percentage points from the previous month; the average price of second-hand housing was 0.1% month-on-month and 3.3% year-on-year, both lower than the previous month 0.2 percentage point.

This is the first time this year, and the effectiveness of regulatory policies is being further released. On the one hand, real estate financial supervision continues to be strict, and personal mortgages have stopped and slowed down; on the other hand, the regulation of the property market in many places has continued to increase. For example, Shanghai has strengthened purchase restrictions and house price verification, and Xi’an, Wuxi, and Shaoxing have formed second-hand housing references. In terms of price mechanism, Beijing, Taiyuan, and Wenzhou have strengthened management for school district housing speculation.

Among all tier cities, the growth rate of various housing prices in first-tier cities has fallen the most. Second-hand housing prices have narrowed by 0.5% year-on-year, and both new and second-hand housing prices have narrowed by 0.3% month-on-month; second-tier cities have been relatively flat, with various housing prices increasing.

The year-on-year and two-year average growth rates of sales area and sales continued to fall from the previous month. From the perspective of a single month, the year-on-year growth rates of the two were -8.5% and -7.1%, respectively, showing negative growth for the first time during the year. The demand side was constrained by the tightening of housing loan policies (the cumulative growth rate of personal mortgage loans narrowed by 6.9 percentage points from the previous month), and the supply side was subject to the tightening of financing policies (the year-on-year growth rate of funds in place by housing enterprises further slowed to 18.2%, of which The decline in domestic loans expanded to -4.5%), prompting both the willingness to buy and sell houses to decrease.

It is still at a high level; the completed area is 420 million square meters, an increase of 25.7% year-on-year, and the same as the previous month’s growth rate.

In response to the central government’s requirement to speed up the improvement of the “land price stabilization” work mechanism, the rules for centralized land auctions were adjusted in many places, and land transfers were postponed or suspended accordingly. As a result, the original “two centralized” land supply peak did not form in July. The area of ​​land purchased in a single month was 17.428 million square meters, slightly higher than the same period last year, and there was no outstanding performance; the monthly land transaction area of ​​100 large and medium-sized cities shown by WIND caliber was only 33.445 million square meters, which was a single month transaction since last year.

  It is expected that the market turnover will continue to grow negatively in August in a single month

Regarding regulatory policies, the regulation of second-hand housing and school district housing may continue to be strengthened. Since its regulation is not as direct as the new housing market, it is expected that more regions may refer to the second-hand housing transaction reference price mechanism, or strengthen the regulation of the real estate market order, and Promote in coordination with education reform.
