There are 8 parts in this book, which are the general report, reports on land, reports on finance and business, reports on market, reports on management, reports on the regional markets, reports on the international markets and reports on hot issues. The general report analyzes overall the developing trend of the real estate industry and the real estate market, while the rest reports respectively make deep analysis of the secondary real estate markets, regional markets and hot issues.

In 2014, there was a substantial falling down in China’s real estate market and the housing prices in many large and medium-sized cities shown an apparent decrease trend compared with 2013. However, form the perspective of the price trend of the national real estate, the annual real estate transaction price in 2014 was 6323 Yuan, still 1.4% higher than that in 2013. Sales area of the real estate was 1206.49 million square meters, 7.6% lower over the previous year with an obvious cold sale. The real estate sale area in 2014 was 621.69 million square meters, an increase of 128.74 million square meters compared with the end of 2013, but it remained high inventories. The housing rental market continued become colder, the annual rent index dropped 2.2% with a nearly 50% decline. The real estate investment growth rate decreased significantly, and the national real estate development investment was 9.5036 trillion Yuan, increasing 10.5% over the previous year in the name but with growth rate 9.3% lower than that in 2013. The real estate enterprises face great difficulties in funding, and the available funds in 2014 were 12.1991 trillion Yuan, 0.1% lower than that in the previous year. The real estate enterprises obviously are not confident, and the new housing construction area in 2014 was 1795.92 million square meters, 10.7% lower over the previous year. Enterprises declined their land purchasing enthusiasm, and the land acquisition area in 2014 was 333.83 million square meters, 14.0% lower over the previous year. However, the land transaction price of the national real estate enterprises in 2014 was 3002 Yuan per square meter, 446 Yuan per square meter higher compared with that in 2013. In the major monitoring cities, prices of comprehensive use land, business and services use land, housing use land and industrial use land increased relatively over the previous year, showing a moderate upward trend. In 2014, land prices in most cities fluctuated in a steady state, and the number of cities with higher land price reduced compared with the previous year. The total amount of construction land supply tightened substantially, and the commercial, residential and industrial supply area of each use land has been reduced. The national macro-control policies like the “one size fits all” type has gradually fade out, regulation measures tended to be more market-oriented, and the central government’s control policies focused more on long-term and stability.

Looking to 2015, the Chinese economy is in a stage with growth rate shifting, structural adjustment and previous policies digestion overlaid. The economy is shifting from high speed to a medium-to-high speed growth, with an estimated annual growth rate at 7%, and it will face a long process of transition and adjustment. Faced with the new normal of macroeconomic development, a prudent monetary policy will continue to be implemented to optimize the liquidity orientation and structure, and it will implement the “targeted RRR cuts” and its related measures. The money supply will continue the relatively loose trend of the end of 2014. As the real estate market differentiates significantly, the central government will continue to take the principles that different policies in different regions or cities, part of the regulation power will be decentralized to the local governments. Under the framework of the national policies, the local governments will make more refined and flexible policies in favor of the real estate market development without violating any principle. Policies on fiscal, financial, tax and others will also increase supporting efforts to the real estate market. Specifically, the real estate investment in 2015 will continue to differentiate, most of which will be invested in the first-tier cities and part of the second-tier cities; according to the new construction area and the inventory area in recent 3 years, it is sure that the supply is adequate in 2015 in the real estate market; support policies of the central and local governments on the real estate market as well as the corresponding fiscal and monetary policies will further promote the improvement-type of housing consumption, and the housing demand in 2015 will grow significantly. From a comprehensive perspective, it is very probable that the housing price in 2015 will maintain grow at a low rate, but the regional differentiation will be very obvious. The housing price in the first-tier cities with high population aggregation capacity and some of the second-tier cities will go upward, while the housing prices in the rest second-tier cities with low population aggregation capacity and the third-tier, forth-tier cities will continue the falling down trend.
