Beijing real estate prices 'are soaring'

Beijing real estate prices 'are soaring'
The cost of real estate in Beijing and other major cities in China is increasing rapidly, experts have suggested.

According to Pan Shiyi, chairman of property firm SOHO China, bidding for land in the country has become "irrational", reports China Daily.

Earlier this week, a parcel of land along Guagqu Road in Beijing was sold at auction for more than four billion yuan ($585 million), which was a record sum for a single piece of real estate in the city.

"A bubble in Beijing's property market is definitely there," Mr Shiyi commented.

His views were supported by a broker with Homelink, who said market analysts used to talk about monthly price growth, but that now "it's more about daily change".

Earlier this week, general manager of investment bank to the real estate market Stanley & Partners Chen Jiaqiang told China Stakes that the value of land has risen again in the country.

He claimed that the sector is strong and that investors are unlikely to lose money by purchasing real estate in China. ADNFCR-1127-ID-19249089-ADNFCR
