Investment Rating - The report maintains a "Positive" investment rating for the real estate industry [13]. Core Insights - The targeted reduction of housing burdens is primarily achieved through interest subsidies or tax deductions, with the method of implementation being crucial. Sustainability is more important than the magnitude and scope of the subsidies. If subsidies are limited to a few years, their effectiveness in stabilizing prices may be limited. Subsidizing only new homes initially incurs lower costs but may gradually accumulate and increase the replacement of new homes over existing stock. If existing stock is also considered, the policy costs will significantly rise. Income expectations are more critical than interest rates for housing prices, and interest subsidies can gradually resolve the issue of inverted returns, but income expectations depend on overall demand expansion or distribution reforms. Overall, the targeted reduction of housing burdens supports the "small cycle" of good properties and aids in the further development of the "incremental drives stock" logic [2][10].
