New house prices in China fall for the 39th consecutive month

SAPO Notícias15 September 2026 at 04:11

New house prices in China fell in August for the 39th consecutive month, representing a sustained decline spanning more than three years. This drop extends the real estate crisis that has affected the country since 2021.

Although the downward trend continues, the data indicates that the pace of decline has slowed slightly compared to previous months, suggesting a possible gradual stabilization of the market.

In contrast, existing home prices recorded a sharper decline than new homes, showing even greater pressure on the second-hand property segment.

The real estate crisis in China continues to be one of the country's main economic challenges, affecting both the construction sector and consumer confidence as well as the financial markets.

Why this matters

Readers are affected by the Chinese real estate crisis that continues to influence global markets and economic confidence. The slight slowdown in the decline of new house prices contrasts with the more pronounced drop in existing home prices, signaling distinct dynamics in the market.
