Changsha, the capital of Hunan Province, is hailed as a "housing price depression" by netizens due to its low housing price-to-income ratio.
What is even more praiseworthy is that Changsha's economic and social development achievements in recent years have also been particularly outstanding.
Housing prices are stable and the whole city is alive, bringing multiple enlightenments.
Living and working in peace and contentment is the "small luck" that every ordinary person expects.
In first-tier cities and some second-tier cities, today's high housing prices have made many young people "want about their houses", and it is difficult to afford a "comfortable home" even with the use of "six wallets".
High housing prices fetter the dreams of young people, dilute people's happiness, and bring about a series of derivative problems.
Because of this, it is not difficult to understand that the "housing price depression" Changsha became popular on the Internet, which was watched by netizens and received widespread praise.
To stabilize housing prices, the regulation must be solid, and the policies must be refined, and the most important thing is persistence.
According to calculations by authoritative organizations in the industry, the housing price-to-income ratio in Changsha is only 6.4 times, which is at the bottom of the second-tier cities.
The reason why Changsha has developed into a "housing price depression" is not only the result of the interaction between market supply and demand, but also the result of long-term adherence to active regulation.
According to reports, the essence of Changsha's property market regulation lies in a set of "combined punches", through measures such as housing price restrictions, land bidding, and purchase restrictions, to precisely curb speculative behavior in real estate and stabilize property market expectations.
Reasonable and stable housing prices can enhance the competitiveness of cities.
For a city, economic and social development is inseparable from a steady supply of talents.
The housing price in Changsha is not high, and it is relatively livable and suitable for work. Young people, graduates, talented people, and industrial workers are all willing to settle and develop here.
Statistics show that as of 2020, the permanent population of Changsha will reach 8.8 million, a net increase of nearly 410,000 over the previous year.
Since its GDP exceeded one trillion in 2017, Changsha's economy has grown steadily and its performance is strong. In 2020, its GDP will exceed 1.2 trillion, ranking 15th among the "trillion club" cities. The relatively low housing prices have become Changsha's competitive advantage.
This year's government work report once again emphasized that it insists on the positioning that the house is used for living, not for speculation.
To ensure the housing needs of the people, this solemn promise is not only a positive response of the central government to the people's expectations for a better life, but also an inevitable move based on the needs of economic and social development at this stage.
To achieve this goal of people's livelihood, it is necessary to unswervingly follow the requirements of the central government, proceed from the principle of "one city, one policy" and precise regulation, and focus on "stabilizing land prices, stabilizing housing prices, and stabilizing expectations".
In addition, all localities should vigorously develop the leasing market and improve the housing supply system.
Through methods such as increasing land supply, arranging special funds, and intensive construction, we will effectively increase the supply of affordable rental housing and shared-ownership housing, and try our best to help new citizens and young people alleviate housing difficulties.
