Why is the housing price in Xiamen so high?

Uncle Fang went to Xiamen on business 20 days ago. Temporarily stay in the express hotel near Xiamen International Center. Surprisingly, the membership price of an ordinary standard room is actually more than 800 yuan a night. At that time, I asked the hotel front desk why it was so expensive, and she said it had been like this all summer. I checked other hotels with my mobile phone, even in remote areas, which are not cheap. Some five-star hotels, such as Lily Hotel and Qiushuishan Hotel in Shenzhen, cost five or six hundred yuan a night.

I visited the downtown area the next day. The urban construction in Xiamen is really good. What caught my eye were blue sky and white clouds, sea water and charming subtropical climate. Mountains, seas, islands, reefs, rocks, temples, flowers, trees, bridges and buildings set each other off in an interesting way, with beautiful scenery and pleasant climate. It combines overseas Chinese customs, Fujian and Taiwan customs, seaside cuisine and exotic architecture.

However, it is found that the consumption level of Xiamen is not low, which may be related to its being a tourist city. But the house price seems to be higher. The average price of a residential area near Xiamen International Center has reached 7. 1 10,000 yuan. According to statistics, in July, the house price in Siming District was 59 108 yuan/m2, in Huli District it was 52,230 yuan/m2, and in Haicang District it was 36 186 yuan/m2. In August, the average price of second-hand houses in Xiamen was 4694 1 yuan/square meter, up 1.46% from the previous month. However, Xiamen's GDP of 20 16 is only over 370 billion, and the per capita disposable income of urban residents is 46,254 yuan, which means that the house price of one square meter is equivalent to the per capita disposable income of citizens for one year, which is very high.

However, why is the housing price in Xiamen so high?

First of all, the supply of residential land in Xiamen is insufficient. Although the area of Xiamen is small, only 1.700 square kilometers, and the resident population is less than 4 million, the population density is not so large compared with Shenzhen 1.997 square kilometers and resident population/.900 million. However, the main reason for housing prices approaching Shenzhen is that the supply of residential land is insufficient in recent years, and many developers can't get land for a long time, which leads to the long-term shortage of Xiamen property market, and housing prices will naturally rise.

Secondly, Xiamen has a livable climate and high happiness index, which is suitable for providing for the aged. So Xiamen is a city with a net inflow of population. At present, the registered population of Xiamen is only 2.2 million, and the foreign population is nearly half. The demand of these migrants for housing makes the supply of Xiamen property market more tight, which pushes up the housing price.

Third, Fujian people's preference for home ownership and optimism about Xiamen make them keen to buy a house in Xiamen. Fujian people have a traditional preference for buying a house. In addition, they think Xiamen is a good place and the only sub-provincial city with the highest level in Fujian Province. Investing in real estate here will not depreciate, so everyone wants to buy a house in Xiamen. According to statistics, 70% of Xiamen real estate sales are foreigners. It can be seen that the housing prices in Xiamen are not determined by the local working class, but guided by the rich in the whole province and even the whole country.

Some people here will ask, can you still buy a house in Xiamen? Fang Shu believes that if you just need it, you can choose a cost-effective house with low unit price and good location. If it's an investment, let's wait and see. After all, the current regulation has changed the property market, and there are fewer and fewer opportunities for investment.
