China News Service, Taipei, January 5th. In 2020, the total number of houses sold and transferred in six major cities in Taiwan will reach 250,000, which is a new high since 2014.

According to estimates by house brokers, the transaction volume of houses across Taiwan this year will exceed 320,000.

　　According to reports from Taiwanese media such as Zhongshi News Network and United News Network on the 5th, last year, the number of house transactions in Taiwan increased by 7.8% annually; in December, the number of transactions in six major cities was 26,200, an increase of 6.6% from the previous month. An increase of 17.5% over the same period last year was a single-month high in the five years since the implementation of the “integrated real estate and land tax” in Taiwan.

　　Among them, Taipei City’s annual transaction volume was 31,000, an annual increase of 12.4%; New Taipei City had the highest volume of transfers among the six cities, reaching 63,000, an annual increase of 5.5%; in addition, cities with a higher number of transfers also There are Taichung (49,000 buildings) and Taoyuan (46,000 buildings).

Zhang Xulan, chief executive of the Trend Center of Taiwan Housing Group, said that the four cities of "North North Taozhong" have relatively sound infrastructure and mature production and economic environments, and the housing market has received "hot money" injections.

　　Taiwan media noticed that as soon as a new house opened in some areas, it claimed that the sales exceeded 50%, which caused the public's anxiety that "if you don't buy it now, you won't be able to buy it in the future," buyers line up overnight.

Yan Bingli, director and general manager of DTZ, believes that the real estate market is inevitably caused by the "real estate speculation" of speculators. These people only make "excessive money" and there is no such large amount of rigid demand.

　　Chen Nanguang, vice president of Taiwan’s “central bank”, believes that the real estate boom will not be able to drive the prosperity of other industries. It will also crowd out the available resources of non-real estate industries and reduce overall economic growth.

　　According to reports, Taiwan implemented a housing loan restriction policy at the end of December last year, and the relevant administrative departments have successively introduced measures to "offer housing."

The "Business Times" editorial on the 5th pointed out that Taiwan has many opportunities for economic development in 2021.

The article said in response to the recent real estate market that "it has become so hot that we must step on the brakes."
