  According to statistics released by the Central Plains Real Estate Research Center on July 1, in the first half of 2020, the land sales revenue of the 50 largest and medium-sized cities with the highest income from land sales in China reached 2.29 trillion yuan (RMB, the same below), a year-on-year increase 17.3%. Among the 50 cities, 33 cities had a year-on-year increase in land sales revenue.

  The revenue from land sales in the four cities exceeded 100 billion yuan. In the first half of the year, the revenue from land sales in the four cities of Hangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing, and Guangzhou ranked first, and the revenue from land sales exceeded 100 billion yuan. Among them, Hangzhou topped the list, with land sales revenue exceeding 180 billion yuan.

  Among the 50 cities, 38 cities sold more than 20 billion yuan in land sales. All 50 cities' land sales revenue in the first half of the year exceeded 15 billion yuan.

  Zhang Dawei, chief analyst of Zhongyuan Real Estate, pointed out that in the first half of the year, market liquidity was ample, interest rates fell as a whole, and financing for housing companies was difficult. At the same time, housing sales in recent months have been better than expected. From April to May, the real estate transaction volume in major cities across the country showed a significant recovery compared to February, and the average online transaction volume rose by 80%. These factors have increased the enthusiasm of real estate companies for land acquisition, and reproduced high premium land transactions in many places, which has boosted the land market.

  The data released by the Central Index Research Institute also shows that in the first half of 2020, the total land sales revenue of 300 cities in China was 237.6 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 3%. From the perspective of housing companies, more than half of housing companies did not lose land last year from January to June. The average monthly land value of 50 representative housing companies in the first half of the year was 171.63 billion yuan, slightly higher than the monthly average of 2019 (170.69 billion yuan). Among them, the average monthly land acquisition amount of 27 housing companies exceeds the monthly average of 2019. Aoyuan, Longguang, and the first three housing companies have more than doubled their monthly land acquisition in the first six months.

  Judging from the hot cities where real estate companies take land, Hangzhou is the hottest, and capital cities in the Midwest and hot cities in urban agglomerations have also received much attention. In the first half of the year, the top ten cities with the largest land acquisition by 50 representative housing companies included: Hangzhou, Urumqi, Xi'an, Suzhou, Foshan, Chongqing, Fuzhou, Guangzhou, Changsha and Zhengzhou.
