According to the agency’s forecast, published on Thursday, the volume of sales of residential real estate in the country will total less than 10 trillion yuan ($1.4 trillion) this year, about half the peak level recorded in 2021.

Fitch this week also worsened its forecast for home sales in the PRC: the agency now expects sales to fall by 15-20% this year, rather than the 5-10% previously estimated.

The lowered forecasts show that rating agencies are not confident in the success of a large-scale package of market support measures, the launch of which the Chinese authorities announced in May. In particular, it includes the abolition of the lower limit on mortgage rates, as well as lowering down payment requirements for real estate buyers using mortgages. In addition, Beijing urged authorities in cities with a surplus stock of ready-made houses to buy back properties at reasonable prices for later use as affordable housing.

Prices of new buildings in China’s major cities fell for the 11th straight month in May. According to a report by China’s State Statistics Office (SSO), the cost of new housing in the country’s 70 largest cities fell 3.9% year-on-year last month, the most since June 2015.
