Core Viewpoint - The real estate industry is entering a new phase of stabilization, supported by proactive adjustments in investment and new construction, leading to improved supply-demand dynamics and a gradual recovery from previous downturns [1][3]. Group 1: New Construction, Investment, and Transaction Dynamics - The balance among new construction, investment, and transaction volumes is crucial for the long-term stability of the real estate sector. In 2025, new construction area decreased by 20.4% to 590 million square meters, with residential new construction down by 19.8% to 430 million square meters, marking a historical low where new construction only accounted for 67% of new home sales [3][6]. - The proactive adjustment in new construction has alleviated inventory pressure, with major cities seeing a decline in narrow inventory levels, and new supply generally falling below transaction volumes. This dynamic adaptation has prevented exacerbation of supply-demand imbalances and ensured the competitiveness of quality new projects [3][6]. - In 2025, total real estate development investment reached 8.3 trillion yuan, down 17.2% year-on-year, with its share of new home sales dropping to 98.6%. This indicates a return to positive cash flow for the industry, reflecting a sales-driven investment model that supports project operations and profit realization [6][8]. Group 2: Financing Environment and Economic Support - The national economy showed resilience in 2025, with GDP reaching 140.2 trillion yuan, growing by 5.0% year-on-year. This economic backdrop, along with rising urbanization rates at 67.89%, provides a supportive environment for the real estate market [8]. - Financial indicators improved, with M2 money supply growing by 8.5% year-on-year. The recovery in resident long-term loans, which increased by 10.6 billion yuan in December, reflects effective market stabilization measures [8]. - Continued policy support from financial authorities, including adjustments to monetary policy tools and loan extensions for "white list" projects, aims to enhance the financing environment and reduce burdens on existing projects, allowing for a more extended adjustment period for the industry [8]. Group 3: Sales and Price Trends - In 2025, new residential sales area totaled 880 million square meters, down 8.7% year-on-year, with sales value declining by 12.6% to 840 billion yuan. The cumulative decline was exacerbated by a high base from the previous year, although monthly data showed signs of marginal improvement [9][12]. - The average price of new homes in December 2025 saw a year-on-year decline of 3.0%, with first-tier cities down 1.7%. However, the number of cities experiencing price stabilization increased to 12, indicating a potential structural recovery in certain markets [12][14]. - The People's Bank of China emphasized the need for a moderately loose monetary policy to support economic growth and stabilize prices, which may provide new support for housing prices in 2026, particularly in areas with high population density and proximity to industrial clusters [12][14]. Group 4: Future Outlook - The real estate market is expected to stabilize in 2026, with sales volume and value declines anticipated to narrow. The proactive adjustments in supply and demand indicators since 2025 are expected to yield positive results, with improved buyer confidence [14][15]. - Inventory reduction remains a priority, with new construction expected to decrease by around 10% in 2026. Policies aimed at acquiring existing properties for affordable housing and adjusting land supply dynamically will facilitate inventory clearance [15]. - The industry is transitioning towards a healthier ecosystem, with a widening gap between investment and sales volumes. The focus is shifting from expansion to optimization of existing assets, which is expected to create a more sustainable operational environment [15].

Group 1: Policy Changes and Impacts - The "white list" projects can now benefit from loan extensions of up to five years, providing a more lenient repayment buffer for real estate companies [7][10]. - The approval amount for "white list" projects has been steadily increasing, projected to exceed 5 trillion yuan by the end of 2024 and surpass 7.5 trillion yuan by the end of 2025 [9]. - The policies are designed to stabilize market expectations and enhance confidence among stakeholders, facilitating project completion and delivery [10][19]. Group 2: Project Delivery and Market Recovery - As financing for projects is secured, the delivery of commercial housing is progressing smoothly, with over 7.5 million units sold but not delivered being completed by October 2025 [13]. - Major real estate companies, such as Vanke and Sunac China, have reported significant progress in meeting delivery targets, with Vanke delivering 117,000 units in 2025 [13][14]. - The successful completion of housing delivery is crucial for restoring market confidence and is a key indicator of whether companies can return to normal operations [15]. Group 3: Debt Restructuring and Risk Management - Since 2025, debt restructuring and corporate reorganization among real estate companies have accelerated, with Kaisa Group being the first major listed real estate company to successfully undergo judicial reorganization, involving debts of 147 billion yuan [16]. - A total of 44 listed companies with outstanding debts of 2.72 trillion yuan are still disclosing financial reports, with 18 companies having announced debt restructuring plans totaling 1.88 trillion yuan [16]. - The ongoing debt restructuring efforts among major firms like Sunac China and Country Garden are expected to clear industry risks and provide confidence for smaller companies to pursue similar restructuring [16][17]. Group 4: Future Outlook - The establishment of the "white list" financing coordination mechanism is expected to alleviate liquidity pressures for eligible projects, enhancing credit support for compliant projects and improving buyer confidence in new home deliveries [19][20]. - The regulatory framework is shifting towards a normalized operation of buyer rights protection mechanisms, supporting real estate companies in returning to normal business operations [20].
