Real estate industry research weekly: what is the effect of urban implementation?

Industry tracking (2022.4.9-2022.4.15)

This round of policy relaxation path: Loan restriction has become the main focus

In the "substance is greater than form - Comments on Zhengzhou New Deal" (March 2, 2022), we proposed that "instead of waiting for the signal of top-down systematic relaxation, it is better to pay attention to local practical actions; instead of entanglement with the form of policy relaxation, it is better to rethink the ultimate goal that the policy wants to achieve". Different from the small cycle of marginal easing in 18-19 years and 20 years (mainly purchase restriction and talent policies), the second and third tier cities represented by Zhengzhou in 22 years have independently broken through the four restriction policies (purchase restriction, loan restriction and price restriction), especially the intensive adjustment of loan restriction policies (the reduction of housing and loan recognition standards and down payment ratio), which represents that this round of urban implementation has officially entered the era of local comprehensive easing.

According to our incomplete statistics, since October 21, Xi'an, Wenzhou and other 27 cities have issued four limit relaxation policies, and many cities have reduced the first / second set of loan interest rates. By summarizing the data of new house sales area, amount, average price and inventory, we found that the year-on-year decline of new house sales area in 15 relaxed cities with data statistics expanded from - 22% of Q4 peak in 21 years to - 45% in January of 22 years. Both the year-on-year decline and the expansion range of decline were significantly higher than those in second tier cities (- 12% to - 30%) and the national average (- 17% to - 35%) in the same period.

Due to the effect of urban policy implementation: marginal improvement in the growth rate of sales price

Since the local government intensively relaxed the four restrictions policy in February, the monthly year-on-year growth rate of new house sales area in 15 relaxed cities has narrowed from - 45% in January to - 32% in March. In the same period, the second tier cities have expanded from - 30% to - 33% and the whole country from - 35% to - 39%. The overall improvement rate is better than that of other cities.

Although the overall fundamentals of the sample cities are still weak, the marginal improvement of the growth rate of the sales price index of new houses shows that the local urban policies still have a certain supporting effect, which is the same as our "passive response on the demand side?" (March 21, 2022) the conclusions of the report are basically the same. However, with reference to the phased weak improvement of 21q4 and the superimposed impact of the current epidemic and income expectation on demand, we believe that the policy effect needs to be continuously observed. The current policy strength may be difficult to establish the improvement trend, and it needs more intensive urban implementation signals, looser policy scales and the driving effect of hot cities to jointly boost market confidence.

Affected by the epidemic, the decline in transactions in new houses, second-hand houses and land markets continued to expand this week
