        Editor's Note: China has taken a series of measures in recent months to curb prices in the residential property market, which soared 11.7 percent in March. This indicated a possible bubble. The market's reaction to the policies is complicated: Transaction numbers decreased, but experts and developers are of different opinions about what prices will do. Here we prepared some facts and opinions so you can make your own judgment.

        April 30: Beijing unveils tough measures to curb housing price rises

        Beijing banned all families from buying more than one home Friday, in a tough set of restrictions designed to curb speculation and soaring home prices.

        The government also ordered the implementation of central government policies that ban mortgages for purchases of a third or third-plus home.

        It also instigated a central government ban on mortgages to non-local residents who cannot provide more than one year of tax returns or proof of social security payments in Beijing. [Full Story]

         

        April 19: Government to punish property price manipulation

        China's top housing authority has pledged to punish property developers who deliberately raise housing prices by delaying proposed sales dates. The rule was issued by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development.

        In the regulation, the ministry also ordered developers not to take deposits for sales of uncompleted apartments without proper approval and barred them from charging "abnormally high" prices. [Full Story]

        The State Council asked related departments and local governments to take strict measures to curb speculative property purchases and to increase residential housing supplies. It also said banks can refuse loans to people buying their third houses in areas suffering from soaring property prices.

        Provincial and municipal governments in areas with soaring prices can also temporarily restrict the number of properties people can buy, in accordance with the situation in their jurisdictions. [Full Story]

         

        April 14: Second home payment raised to curb soaring prices

         

        The Chinese government raised down payment for people buying their second homes to a minimum of 50 percent of the property value from 40 percent, in a bid to curb speculation in the country's property market.

        First-home buyers have to pay more than 30 percent of property prices if the property area is above 90 square meters, the statement said. [Full Story]

        Learn German lessons

        Property policy watch

        Fang Quan, chief editor of Capital Week magazine 

        The new real estate policies issued by the central government are mainly targeted at real estate speculators. This has not been recognized by some scholars and developers. They still expect China's asset bubbles not to burst until 2015. The government must impose a heavy tax upon real estate speculation, because the real estate market is different from the stock market. The well-being of China's 1.3 billion people - most of whom are not rich people - is closely related to the real estate market.

        The policies that China has used to control real estate market will not have a major impact on real estate speculators, and many famous scholars and economists are actually real estate investors and use their intellectual and commercial power to influence policymaking. The continual rise of China's real estate prices has a negative influence on China's overall economy and the people's livelihood.

        We should draw lessons from Germany, which has had quite stable home price growth through imposing heavy taxes on house speculation. If the Chinese government imposes a heavy tax upon real estate speculation, and ensure speculators cannot profit from the real estate market, then China can solve the problem of uncontrollable home prices.

         

        Tackle social issues

        House prices have become a big issue in China. I think it's right for the government to regulate China's real estate market, but I don't think the adjustment should be too drastic, because the current housing price level reflects the country's overall social and economic problems, such as income and regional gaps. So if China simply tries to control real estate prices without being able to solve its overall social and economic problems such as unemployment, the gap between the rich and the poor, monopolies and so on, then the house price problem won't be solved successfully.

         

         

        Management problems

        China's real estate problem doesn't lie in the market, but in the management of the sector. The government is responsible for the current housing price woes. It should improve its real estate policies to satisfy the different demands of different interest groups, such as affordable housing for the poor.

        Legislators had found, for example, that local governments had only delivered 26 percent of their promised supply of low-priced affordable housing. The government, therefore, should bear most of the responsibility for the current real estate troubles. Home prices this year won't rise sharply like they did in 2009, they will be quite stable.

         

        Look beyond big cities

        Property policy watch

        Yi Xiaodi, board chairman of Sunshine100 Co Ltd

        The current home prices in China's big cities are too high, but I am not sure whether the prices will drop or not. The current home prices in China's second-tier cities are not very high yet, but if the government policies take effect, then the prices in China's second-tier cities will drop immediately. Meanwhile, prices in China's small cities are still low, and so we can't jump to conclude that China's overall real estate market has a bubble.

         

         

         

        Target speculators

        Property policy watch

        Yi Xianrong, economist, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences 

        We should not underestimate the effect of the new policies targeted at controlling surging home prices. The intention of the policies this time is very clear, gradually adjusting the preferential policies the government previously implemented to support home sales. Last year, due to the fallout from the global financial crisis, the government released a series of preferential policies to stimulate house purchases. This continued in the first quarter of this year. The new moves, however, are targeted at those preferential policies that raise the cost of speculative housing deals.

        Property transactions in China's major cities plummeted during the May Day holiday - traditionally a hot season for home sales, as the government's tightening measures began to take effect.

        Average daily transactions of completed apartments in Beijing dropped to two units during the three-day holiday, down 96 percent year-on-year, and that of homes yet to be constructed fell 35 percent to 205 units, according to Beijing Real Estate Transaction website. Compared with April, the transaction volume decreased more than 80 percent. [Full Story]

         

        Property speculators yet to feel the heat

        It looks it will take a while before government policies to cool down the real estate market have their desired effect on property speculators.

        According to the Chinese newspaper Economic Observer, the high-end property market in Beijing, which has some of the priciest real estate in China, still performed strongly despite the strong government intervention in the sector since mid-April.

        The newspaper reported that buyers of expensive properties consist mainly of proprietors of private energy companies, as well as senior executives of financial services and real estate companies. [Full Story]

         

        Tough rules set to drop home prices 30%

        Home prices may drop by as much as 30 percent by the end of this year in Beijing, following the introduction of tough new rules that among other things ban families from buying more than one additional home.

        In addition, non-locals are not allowed to buy an additional home unless they have worked in Beijing for a year, the government says. [Full Story]

         

        Real estate sales witness big fall

        The booming property market suddenly cooled down in April - in home sales, at least - after a range of government measures aimed at curbing runaway prices.

        However, the measures are also fueling concerns that growth could slow in the world's third largest economy, already beset by export uncertainties. [Full Story]

        The government's intensive launch of tightening property policies in mid-April has led millions of potential home buyers to adopt a wait-and-see attitude, leading to a plummet in property sales and a slight drop in the prices of some suburban projects. But a large-scale price drop in the country's key cities is unlikely to happen until the second half of this year, industry experts say.

        The recent government measures to cool the red-hot property market will not slow economic growth or lead to a significant rise in the bad debts of lenders, a central bank adviser said on Tuesday.

        Li Daokui, a member of the central bank's monetary policy committee, said the tightening measures would in no way dampen real estate investment, a key component of China's economic growth. [Full Story]
