Reduce the proportion of down payment in many places and loosen the demand side policy. According to the China Securities News, several banks in Heze City, Shandong Province lowered the down payment ratio of personal housing loans in the city, and the down payment ratio of “no house, no loan” buyers fell to a minimum of 20%. Since this year, many places have carried out policy regulation of the real estate market, which is in line with our previous judgment that more favorable policies are on the way. The decline in the proportion of down payment has strong signal significance. We judge that more second and third tier small and medium-sized cities will follow up, and it is expected to gradually expand from provident fund loans to commercial bank loans.

Investment suggestion: the fundamentals are still at the bottom, but the direction of policy easing is clear, and the “overweight” rating is given to the real estate development sector. Previously, we judged that the strength of this round of policies is still insufficient. We expect that more policies are in the way, and the main direction is to improve the capital and demand side of enterprises. Subsequently, the proportion of down payment in many places decreased, confirming the logic of demand side policy improvement. We believe that “the policy continues to be favorable – the industry fundamentals are bottomed out and are expected to recover later – the state-owned enterprises and high-quality private enterprises resume land acquisition and the gross profit margin of land acquisition will be repaired” is the main logic of 2022, which will reach the three-level resonance upward of fundamentals, industries and enterprises in the later stage. Real estate enterprises with good credit qualification, sufficient liquidity, sufficient soil reserves and high quality are the main choice. It is suggested to pay attention to real estate enterprises, including A-Shares Poly Developments And Holdings Group Co.Ltd(600048) , Hangzhou Binjiang Real Estate Group Co.Ltd(002244) , China Merchants Shekou Industrial Zone Holdings Co.Ltd(001979) , Gemdale Corporation(600383) , China Vanke Co.Ltd(000002) , Huafa Industrial Co.Ltd.Zhuhai(600325) , Jinke Property Group Co.Ltd(000656) , Seazen Holdings Co.Ltd(601155) ; H-share China overseas development, green city China, China Resources Land, Longhu group, China Jinmao, Xuhui holding group, China Overseas Hongyang.
