Nanjing Cancels 3 of 5 Land Sales as Housing Market Turns

A set of poor land sales results have highlighted the softening real estate market in Nanjing, reflecting the effectiveness of recent government measures to cool a market that was seen as tipping towards overheating, exemplified by a strong buyer response for a home that had been the scene of a domestic tragedy in 2011.

Land authority officials in the city – the capital of Jiangsu province and the second largest city in the East China region – cancelled three of five planned land sales due to take place during a two-day period ended last Friday, while the remaining two sites were sold for less than those fetched by nearby sites at earlier auctions.

Developers Double Agent Commissions as HK Market Slows

It’s a great time to be a Hong Kong property agent.

In some cases, developers are paying more than double their usual 3 per cent agent commission for selling a flat, as they get aggressive in paying agents to drum up sales. The step signals the growing eagerness of developers to speed up sales as market sentiment continues to sour. The higher commissions are on top of sweeter mortgage deals and discounts that developers are offering potential buyers.

A toxic combination of rising interest rates, a looming vacancy tax on empty flats and the sharp decline in the city’s stock market is making developers jittery. Read more>>
