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

Sábado15 September 2026 at 07:57

New house prices in China fell for the 39th consecutive month, according to official data from the country.

The analysis covered 70 Chinese cities, of which 49 recorded declines in new house prices in August, representing an increase from the 47 cities that had recorded declines in July.

Conversely, 15 cities showed increases in new house prices during the period analyzed.

This prolonged decline reflects the difficulties of the Chinese real estate market, which has been facing significant challenges in demand and buyer confidence in recent years.

Why this matters

This prolonged decline in real estate prices in China directly affects investors and companies with exposure to the Chinese market, potentially having implications for the global economy. The worsening number of cities with declines suggests a deepening of the real estate crisis, which may influence international investment decisions and market sentiment.

Fatima didn't know how to read or write, signed a paper and ended up without her house: "When they give me a house, I already have one in Benfica cemetery"

A Portuguese elderly woman named Fatima, illiterate, trusted her then husband to handle documents related to the house she had inherited from her grandmother, ending up signing a document she couldn't understand. Years later, during the divorce, she discovered the property was already in her ex-partner's name and, at the time of the report, was living in a room while waiting for a social housing solution. Renascenca emphasizes that this is only Fatima's version, with no court decision proving the transfer of the property. The article warns about the risks of signing documents without understanding them and recalls that 27% of elderly people aged 65 or older living alone were at risk of poverty in 2024.

Rio plans a 'Porto Maravilha 2.0' around Praça XV

The city of Rio de Janeiro plans a "Porto Maravilha 2.0" around Praça XV, transforming the area into a new gastronomic and cultural hub through a private partnership concession. The site, which housed the Municipal Market between 1907 and 1963 and was later occupied by the Perimetral Elevated Highway — demolished in 2013 — remains more of a pass-through area than a destination, even after the Porto Maravilha revitalization. The Carioca Company of Partnerships and Concessions opened a public consultation with the project draft, which aims to revitalize the area around Praça da Marechal Âncora.
