Core Insights - The recent surge in homebuyers driven by favorable real estate policies has led to a peculiar phenomenon where west-facing units are selling out quickly while east-facing units are struggling to attract buyers [1][7] - This trend contradicts traditional beliefs that favor east-facing units due to cultural significance and morning sunlight [1] Price Advantage - West-facing units are generally priced lower, with a price difference of approximately 500 yuan per square meter compared to east-facing units. For a 100 square meter apartment, this translates to a savings of 50,000 yuan, making it appealing for budget-conscious buyers [1][3] Technological Advancements - Improvements in building materials and technology have mitigated the traditional drawbacks of west-facing units, such as excessive heat from afternoon sun. New developments now utilize better insulation and soundproofing materials, making west-facing units more comfortable [5][3] Ongoing Issues with East-facing Units - East-facing units still face persistent issues like water seepage during rainy seasons, leading to dampness and mold on interior walls. This ongoing problem discourages potential buyers from choosing east-facing units [7][3] Conclusion - The combination of price advantages, technological improvements, and unresolved issues with east-facing units has resulted in a shift in buyer preferences, highlighting a new trend in the real estate market where rational decision-making takes precedence over traditional beliefs [7][1]
