In the country’s 70 key cities, in September, average new home prices headed north by 0.9% from August, which is slower than the previous month's outcome of 1.4% that appeared to be the fastest surge for two years.
In contrast with 2017, new home prices rallied by 7.9%, which is the quickest year-on-year leap since August last year and also faster than August’s 7% leap.
Prices kept soaring notwithstanding tougher curbs expected to tame a near-three-year real estate boom, which has spilled over from megalopolises to the hinterland.
While firm surge in the sector could cushion the influence of a mighty multi-year government clampdown on debt as well as escalating trade clashes with America, it could also generate fears of another bubble if prices surge greatly.
