China News Service, June 15th. The State Council Information Office held a press conference on June 15 to introduce the operation of the national economy in May. At the meeting, a reporter asked a question: In terms of fixed investment, real estate is still declining, and the continuous decline in real estate is very important to China What is the impact on the overall economic situation?
In this regard, Fu Linghui, spokesperson of the National Bureau of Statistics and director of the National Economic Comprehensive Statistics Department, said that at present, it should be said that the real estate market has been in a downward trend as a whole this year.In terms of sales, inthe first five months, the sales area and sales of commercial housing nationwide dropped by 23.6% and 31.5%, respectively, 2.7 and 2 percentage points higher than that in the first four months.Judging from the construction situation, the area of newly started housing in the first five months fell by 30.6% year-on-year, and the decline expanded by 4.3 percentage points.Investment in real estate development fell by 4%, a decrease of 1.3 percentage points from January to April.In terms of funds, the funds in place for real estate development enterprises in the first five months fell by 25.8% year-on-year, and the decline expanded by 2.2 percentage points.Despite the decline in real estate investment, we must also see that with the continuous improvement of the long-term mechanism of the real estate market, we will insist on housing and not speculating, and continue to stabilize housing prices, land prices, and expectations. Construction is conducive to the healthy development of the real estate market.At the same time, various localities are also increasing the implementation of policies and measures to stabilize the real estate market recently, and adopting various measures to effectively meet the reasonable housing needs of residents.In addition, the reduction of medium and long-term loan interest rates for real estate and the reduction of residents' housing purchase burden are all conducive to the stabilization of the real estate market.
Judging from recent surveys, there have been some positive changes in the real estate market.We know that the real estate industry chain is relatively long, and it has a relatively large pull on related industries.With the gradual stabilization of the real estate market, it is believed that the effect on economic stability will gradually emerge in the second half of the year.Of course, to promote the healthy development of real estate, it is still necessary to insist on housing and not speculation, or to meet the reasonable housing needs of residents.(Finish)
