Working in Shanghai, buying a house in Kunshan or Taicang?

If you need to commute to work in Shanghai, the most suitable area around Shanghai at present should be Kunshan Huaqiao; Huaqiao was connected to Shanghai line 1 1 in 20 13, and Suzhou line 1 1 will be opened to traffic this year. Huaqiao will be the only area around Shanghai with dual subways. The following is my analysis of Huaqiao, and you can have a look if you are interested.

People who often read my articles know that my personal positioning of overseas Chinese has always been the first choice for Shanghai spillover; Starting from 20 19, the main buyers of Huaqiao House were indeed like this, but this year Huaqiao newly increased the investment demand from Shanghai, which made the Huaqiao property market stagnant due to the influence of masks appear new variables, and a new group of people drove the wait-and-see crowd, which made Huaqiao property market quickly pick up in a short time. So why did Shanghai's spillover investment demand come to Huaqiao? Let me analyze them for you. If you have any ideas, please share them.

1. After several years of great turmoil in the property market, house prices in other places have fallen sharply, even in most parts of Suzhou, while the house prices in Huaqiao have been firm. Of course, there are also a few owners who are eager to withdraw funds, and they can basically make a deal that night. Judging from the average transaction price, Huaqiao has been relatively stable. After several years of turmoil, the stability of the property market has risen slightly, which is greater than the ups and downs. 2. Huaqiao is more like a small town on the outskirts of Shanghai, in terms of traffic and population structure; 20 13 10 16 Shanghai Anting Station-Jiangsu Kunshan Huaqiao Station officially opened. Shanghai Line 1 1 was the only inter-provincial subway in China at that time, and there were three stations (Zhaofeng Road Station, Guangming Road Station and Huaqiao Station) in Kunshan. The Shanghai Metro 1 1 line extends to Huaqiao, with an average daily passenger flow of over 50,000 passengers and a peak of over 80,000 passengers. Convenient transportation gradually weakens the sense of distance of "Shanghai-Suzhou", and it just needs to become the biggest basic dish of Huaqiao when it keeps flowing.

These pictures are the overseas Chinese in the evening, just a true portrayal of several communities in many communities of overseas Chinese.

14 line extends to 1 1 line Shanghai Auto City Station, and the next two stops are Kunshan Zhaofeng Road Station! The maximum operating speed of 14 line is 80 kilometers per hour. If the 14 line finally connects with the 1 1 line, it only takes about 30 minutes to get from Kunshan to downtown Shanghai! By then, the travel pressure on the 1 1 line will be greatly reduced, and it will be more convenient to go to Shanghai from Huaqiao!

According to the statistics of overseas Chinese community workers during the epidemic, the number of overseas Chinese commuting to Shanghai and Kunming exceeded 60,000. The following is a schematic diagram of overseas Chinese commuting to Shanghai.

In March 2023, Suzhou Line 1 1 (formerly Suzhou Line 1) was officially put into operation in June 2023, and the transfer was realized between huaqiao town and Shanghai Line 1 1. Suzhou Line 1 1 starts from Weiting of Suzhou Industrial Park Line 3 and passes through Kunshan West, Chengzhong, Chengdong, Lujia and Huaqiao. After opening, the central cities of Suzhou and Shanghai will be connected by subway. The opening of the subway will benefit the local real estate market. For the intersection of Suzhou and Shanghai subways, Huaqiao's property market has also ushered in its benefits.

Is Huaqiao still worth buying now? Whether a place is worth buying depends on its own demand, transportation, industry, population, urban construction and regional positioning. In 2022, Huaqiao Economic Development Zone achieved a regional GDP of 41100 million yuan, with a general budget revenue of 5.42 billion yuan, up 5.2% year-on-year, ranking first in the city, and the added value of service industry reached 310.50 billion yuan. Huaqiao jurisdiction covers an area of 52.3 square kilometers and has a permanent population of 323,000.

Many people say that Huaqiao is a town with only subway and no industry, so the limitations of regional development are relatively large; The actual overall positioning of Huaqiao is Shanghai Satellite City+International Business City. As for Shanghai Satellite City, Huaqiao around Shanghai basically has no rivals. Overseas Chinese, an international commercial city, are also making great efforts to develop. Huaqiao has made great efforts in attracting investment in recent years, and has also made some achievements. At present, Huaqiao industry is mainly developed by regional headquarters economy, digital economy, service economy and high-end manufacturing "3+ 1" modern industrial system. Because space is limited, I will only list a few below.

The traffic, population, economy and industry of Huaqiao are mentioned above. What many people don't know is that the environment of overseas Chinese is also very good. Huaqiao is bounded by 3 12 national highway (Cao' an highway), and there is no factory in the south of 3 12 national highway. The architectural surface of the whole city is clean and tidy, which is very modern. The following is a real shot of the overseas Chinese environment. You can have a look.

Conclusion: Is it cost-effective to buy a house around Shanghai at present? Personally, looking at the demand, buying a house in Huaqiao is suitable for Shanghai's just-needed spillover. The minimum down payment here is 450,000, you can get on the bus, support the Shanghai provident fund loan, and have the Shanghai subway, so commuting to Shanghai is relatively more convenient. At present, Huaqiao is not suitable for pure investors to buy a house, because the starting cost is not low, although it will still rise in the future, but the increase will not be great. Now Suzhou Line 1 1 is about to open to traffic. For those who want to buy Huaqiao, now is a good time to start Huaqiao!

Mainly responsible for the plate around Shanghai, more understanding. Want to buy a house around Shanghai, I don't know where to buy it? It doesn't matter. You can find me in the picture above and discuss it together.
