China News Service, Beijing, January 4 (Reporter Pang Wuji) In 2021, housing prices in China's 100 cities have experienced a “high before but low after” increase.

  According to data released by the Zhongzhi Research Institute on the 4th, in 2021, the price of newly-built residential buildings in 100 cities has increased by 2.44%, which is 1.02 percentage points lower than the previous year, and the cumulative increase is at the lowest point in nearly six years.

In 2021, there will be 15 cities with a cumulative decline in the price of newly built houses in 100 cities, an increase of 2 from 2020.

  The Pearl River Delta is the area with the largest cumulative increase in new house prices in 2021 among major urban agglomerations.

In 2021, the cumulative increase of new homes in the Pearl River Delta urban agglomeration is 3.63%, which is higher than that of the Yangtze River Delta (2.78%), Shandong Peninsula (1.97%) and Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (1.17%).

  Among the top 20 cities with cumulative increase in newly built residential buildings in 100 cities, the Pearl River Delta cities accounted for 4 seats. Among them, cities such as Dongguan, Guangzhou, Foshan, and Zhongshan saw higher gains.

However, the top two cities Xuzhou (9.6%) and Xi'an (9.33%) do not belong to the above-mentioned major urban agglomerations.

  In 2021, the transaction volume of commercial housing will also show a trend of "high before and low".

Chen Wenjing, deputy research director of the Index Division of the China Index Research Institute, pointed out at the real estate market situation analysis meeting held that day that the sales of commercial residential buildings in key cities continued to increase slightly last year, and the market activity dropped sharply in the second half of the year.

  According to the agency's data, in 2021, the average monthly transaction of commercial residential buildings in 50 cities was about 33.24 million square meters, an increase of 4.6% year-on-year and an increase of 5.3% year-on-year.

In the second half of last year, the transaction area fell by more than 20% year-on-year.

In December 2021, the transaction area of ​​commercial housing in 50 cities will be around 32.54 million square meters, a year-on-year decrease of more than 20%, and the absolute scale is at the lowest level in the same period in the past five years.

  Looking forward to 2022, Chen Wenjing said that local governments will implement policies depending on the city, and the city's short-term real estate policies are expected to be fine-tuned, which supports the normal release of reasonable housing demand.

In terms of financing, the supervisory authorities strengthened the reasonable abundance of credit funds, and various financing methods were gradually unblocked. State-owned enterprises, central enterprises and leading private enterprises took the lead to benefit.

  According to the agency’s forecast, the national commercial housing sales area will fall in 2022, the average sales price will run steadily, the newly started area will continue to decline, and the investment will grow at a low rate.
