Weekly report of the real estate industry: the five-year LPR was lowered more than expected, and local policies continued to improve

Zhou Du’s view: this Friday, the one-year LPR was reduced by 15bp, the largest single decline in the five-year period after LPR restructuring; Chengdu, Hainan, Hangzhou, Tianjin, Dalian and other places have successively issued documents to support rigid and improving needs, and the subsequent improvement of local policies is expected to continue. With the development of policies and the resonance of recovery after the epidemic, we believe that the end of the second quarter and the beginning of the third quarter are an important observation window period for the stabilization of the property market. In the second half of the year, the industry is expected to gradually usher in the honeymoon period of policy easing and sales recovery, and the valuation of the sector is expected to be gradually repaired. The development sector is mainly concerned about: one is the relaxation of short-term benefit policies and the improvement of gross profit margin at the land acquisition end, strong operating and high credit enterprises that are expected to seize market share in the medium and long term, such as Poly Developments And Holdings Group Co.Ltd(600048) , China Vanke Co.Ltd(000002) , Gemdale Corporation(600383) , China Merchants Shekou Industrial Zone Holdings Co.Ltd(001979) , Hangzhou Binjiang Real Estate Group Co.Ltd(002244) , Shenzhen Tagen Group Co.Ltd(000090) , etc; One is the subject matter of policy game elasticity with certain support for Fundamentals, such as Seazen Holdings Co.Ltd(601155) , Jiangsu Zhongnan Construction Group Co.Ltd(000961) , etc. The valuation of the property management sector has reached an all-time low. With the deregulation of policies and the improvement of real estate enterprise funds, it is expected to bring high-quality property enterprise valuation repair. Attention is paid to country garden service, poly property, China Merchants Property Operation & Service Co.Ltd(001914) , xinchengyue service, Xingsheng commerce, etc.

Policy environment monitoring: 1) the five-year LPR was lowered by 15bp, and the mortgage interest rate accelerated downward; 2) Local property market policy adjustment continued.

On the first 20 days of May, the average daily turnover of new houses decreased by 53.6% year-on-year, which was narrower than that in April 2pct. With the intensive introduction of local policies, the confidence of house purchase is expected to be gradually reshaped. However, due to the impact of epidemic prevention and control and policy time lag in the short term, the transaction is still under pressure. 2) The proportion of improved demand increased month on month.

The inventory in 16 cities was 102.37 million square meters, down 0.5% month on month. Under the pressure of capital and real estate market, real estate enterprises tend to de convert the existing inventory, the superposition of the epidemic situation repeatedly affects the project and promotion progress, and the short-term inventory scale may decline steadily. 4) The land transaction and premium rate rebounded, and the proportion of the second and third tier increased.
