Summary by Sections Market Overview - The report notes a slight decrease in new and second-hand housing sales in the sixth week of 2026, with new home sales down 3% and second-hand home sales down 4% compared to the previous week [10]. Policy Implications - The report emphasizes the importance of monitoring the pace and intensity of policy implementations throughout 2026, particularly in response to weakening fundamentals [5]. - It suggests that the market should not overestimate the scale of the second-hand housing acquisition, as the willingness of homeowners to participate may be limited due to acquisition price constraints [9].

Quality developers with light historical burdens and strong sales growth expectations [5]. 2. Commercial real estate operations, particularly shopping centers that can maintain stable growth [5]. 3.

Core Viewpoint - The real estate market is experiencing a significant downturn, with increasing listings but declining prices, leading to a "fire sale" mentality among homeowners [2][5][9]. Group 1: Market Trends - From 2021 to the present, the number of second-hand homes listed for sale has risen sharply, while prices have consistently decreased, causing distress among homeowners who purchased at peak prices in 2019 [2]. - As of early 2024, many homeowners are anxious to sell, fearing further depreciation of their properties, resulting in a wave of price reductions in the market [2][5]. - The expectation for significant price increases in 2026 is deemed overly optimistic, as the fundamental supply-demand dynamics remain unfavorable, with high inventory levels and declining new population growth [5][6]. Group 2: Price Predictions - The overall trend for housing prices in 2026 is likely to be a gradual decline rather than a dramatic increase or decrease, characterized by a stable and slow adjustment [8][9]. - The notion that policy changes will lead to immediate price surges is unlikely to materialize, as the current market conditions do not support such a scenario [8][9]. Group 3: Selling Strategies - The strategy of drastically reducing prices to sell homes quickly is not advisable, as it may lead to significant losses for homeowners who do not urgently need cash [9][10]. - An alternative strategy of "renting instead of selling" is suggested, as stable rental income can offset potential losses from declining property values, allowing homeowners to wait for better selling conditions [9][10]. Group 4: New Home Purchases - For potential new home buyers who are not in urgent need, it is recommended to wait and observe the market, as future policy changes may further lower purchasing barriers [12]. - The likelihood of a sudden spike in home prices during the observation period is low, making it a reasonable strategy to delay purchases [12]. Group 5: Market Risks - The real estate market's adjustment period may be longer than anticipated, with risks still present, as many areas continue to struggle with poor sales despite various encouraging policies [14][15]. - If significant price declines occur, properties may shift from being seen as assets to burdens, particularly if property tax policies are implemented [15]. Group 6: Conclusion - The real estate market is transitioning from a speculative environment to one focused on stable living and asset management, necessitating a realistic approach to market conditions and individual asset strategies [17].
