BEIJING - China’s property investment and sales growth both eased to a three-month low in October, suggesting a critical pillar of the economy is softening, but new construction surged in a sign developers are rushing to promote sales.
Property investment is a key growth driver for China. A robust housing market has helped counter a slowdown in the manufacturing sector as a 16-month trade war with the United States slashed profits and investments for factories. The downbeat readings aligned with worse-than-expected factory activity contraction and steepest producer inflation in over three years reported last month.
October's property transactions fell 8% on-year in 25 major tier-two and tier-three cities, data from private research firm CRIC showed.Developers may continue to face pressure on sales as costs for buyers increase amid steadily rising home prices. Some analysts say that reflects developers’ rush to launch more projects in a bid for quicker returns on sales.
