　　Zhang Bo, Dean of 58 Anju Guest House Property Research Institute, said that since February, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Dongguan and other places have continued to introduce regulatory policies to plug loopholes, control finance, and promote speculation. In particular, Shenzhen's second-hand housing reference price mechanism has been implemented throughout the country. For the first time, it directly intervened in the price of second-hand housing.

The continuous land "two concentration" in 22 cities has promoted the dual implementation of the long-term mechanism on the financial side and the land side, and has a deeper and longer-term impact on the market.

In this context, the transaction volume of the property market in hot cities in February has dropped to a certain extent, and land prices have stabilized and housing prices have stabilized with a more precise grasp.

　　"It is expected that after the first quarter, the overall market enthusiasm will continue to decline compared to the previous quarter, especially in some sectors that were too hot in the early stage, which may usher in a house price correction, and the stability of the property market will be further strengthened." Zhang Bo said.
