Weekly view:
The government work report emphasizes the protection of people’s housing needs: on March 5, the government work report pointed out that we should continue to ensure people’s housing needs. Adhere to the positioning of housing, housing and non speculation, explore a new development model, adhere to the simultaneous development of rental and purchase, accelerate the development of long-term rental housing market and promote the construction of indemnificatory housing. Support the commercial housing market to better meet the reasonable housing needs of buyers, stabilize land prices, house prices and expectations, and promote the virtuous circle and healthy development of the real estate industry due to urban policies.
The government work report maintains the consistency with the policies of the central economic work conference. Compared with 2021, the position of this year’s “three stable” policy has been adjusted to the support of housing demand after the location of housing is not speculation. We expect that in areas with excess supply, precise demand easing policies will continue to be introduced rapidly and intensively.
Three places released centralized land supply information: 1) on March 4, Jinan announced that it planned to launch 82 residential and commercial land, totaling 2.93 million square meters; 2) On March 2, Xiamen launched 10 residential land with a total construction area of 720000 square meters, starting from March 24; 3) On March 1, Wuhan announced the launch of 11 plots with a total of 320000 square meters, which will be unveiled from March 31.
In terms of plot quality, the transfer of Wuhan is mainly based on the central urban area project, and Xiamen has increased the number of plots on the island; In terms of transfer rules, Wuhan cancelled the rules of competitive construction and self-supporting, increased the profit margin of enterprises, and Xiamen relaxed the payment cycle. The core problem of the East and South China markets where Xiamen and Wuhan are located is that supply exceeds demand. We believe that the relaxation of supply side policies is conducive to increasing the enthusiasm of enterprises to acquire land, so as to increase market supply.
We believe that in 2022, the real estate sector will usher in investment opportunities with continuous improvement of policies and continuous optimization of the competition pattern of real estate enterprises. Three main lines are recommended: 1) leading real estate enterprises under the structural differentiation of financing environment: Green City China, Poly Developments And Holdings Group Co.Ltd(600048) , China Vanke Co.Ltd(000002) ; 2) Regional deep ploughing private enterprises: Hangzhou Binjiang Real Estate Group Co.Ltd(002244) ; 3) High rated and stable private enterprises: Xuhui holding group, Seazen Holdings Co.Ltd(601155) .
