Xiamen is not a big city, why is the house price surprisingly high?

How high is the house price in Xiamen? This is the fourth high-priced city in China after Shanghai, Beijing and Shenzhen, leaving the first-tier city of Guangzhou behind. And Xiamen's housing prices can definitely be called the boss in second-tier cities. Judging from the current data, the average house price in Xiamen is above 40,000 /m2, while there are almost no houses below 60,000 /m2 in Siming area of the island.

Faced with the high housing prices in Xiamen, many real estate experts are puzzled. From their point of view, it is really puzzling that the housing prices in Xiamen still surpass those in Guangzhou. First, as far as economic development is concerned, there are not many large enterprises in Xiamen that can really get their hands on them. And the industry is weak. Finance is also very general. The only bright spot is the good tourism environment, which promotes the development of local service industry. Xiamen's overall economic development level is not high even in Fujian.

Second, Xiamen's population outflow is greater than the inflow. The population of Xiamen was negative in 20 18. Enterprises in Xiamen want to recruit employees, but they often can't recruit high-end talents, because high-end talents have gone to Beishangguang. Even low-end talents are not so good, because the overall population is decreasing. At present, the income of employees in Xiamen is 4,000 yuan/square meter per month, which can hardly support high housing prices.

Third, land resources are not very scarce. Xiamen island is indeed densely populated and land resources are scarce, but Haicang, Jimei and Xiang' an outside the island. The population is not dense, even outside the island, it is still very deserted. After 10 pm, many places are even less prosperous than ordinary second-and third-tier cities. Therefore, the lack of land resources is not a problem of high housing prices in Xiamen.

In our opinion, there are three main reasons for the high housing prices in Xiamen, second only to the north. First, as a second-tier city in China, Xiamen firmly attracts high-net-worth people in Fujian Province. Because of Xiamen's good educational environment, living environment, pension environment and the beautiful scenery of Gulangyu Island, rich people in Fujian want to buy houses in Xiamen, including many real estate speculators. A large number of wealthy people in Fujian went to Xiamen to buy houses, which pushed up the housing prices in Xiamen, especially in Xiamen Island.

Moreover, there is a problem with the time node of Xiamen's price limit purchase restriction. Purchase restriction and price restriction are originally neutral control policies. When the house price is low, the introduction of purchase restriction and price limit can prevent the house price from rising too fast, so that more local people just need to afford the house. The time node when Xiamen introduced price limit and purchase restriction is already the time when house prices have risen very high, which means that house prices are not expected to drop rapidly. Under the price limit, Xiamen's housing prices will certainly not fall in the short term.

Finally, every time Xiamen auctions land, only one or two plots are released, which can't meet the market demand. In order to get land, Xiamen real estate enterprises can only accept quotations at high prices, and the price of commercial housing in Xiamen will increase when the land price is high. If the Xiamen government strengthens the promotion of land outside the island and the contradiction between supply and demand in the market can be alleviated, then the land price in Xiamen will fall, the land price will fall and the commodity price will be adjusted.

Obviously, it is not the developed local economy, the increase of population inflow and the scarcity of land resources that support the high housing prices in Xiamen. Mainly a large amount of funds from Fujian high-net-worth groups flow to Xiamen to buy a house. At the same time, when Xiamen introduced the purchase restriction order, local house prices had already gone up. The introduction of the purchase restriction order at a low level is beneficial to local demand, and the introduction of the purchase restriction order at a high level is mainly to prevent excessive fluctuations in housing prices in Xiamen. In addition, the pace of land supply in Xiamen has slowed down, which has led to the high cost of land acquisition for housing enterprises and will of course be passed on to buyers.
