Can I still buy a house in Shanghai if I have a foreign account and have paid social security for a long time, but last year I broke it for a period of time, about 6 months, can I still buy a house in Shanghai?

According to your description, you are not qualified to buy a house for the time being.

Shanghai's qualification requirements for foreign residents are: 1. a marriage certificate to purchase a home in the name of the family, and both spouses do not own a property in Shanghai; 2. one of the spouses must have a 5-year record of tax or social security, i.e., 60 months of tax or social security payments in the past 63 months from the date of purchase (interruptions are allowed, but not more than 3 months).

You should check how long your social security record has been interrupted, and whether you can fulfill the requirement of paying 60 months of tax or social security in the past 63 months
