Prices of New Home (Real Estate Project in Shanghai) fall 10%

Price of new home (new real estate projects in Shanghai) were sold at about 10 percent cheaper on average last week as developments in outlying areas dominated the Shanghai's best-selling projects.

The average price of new homes, excluding those built for residents under urban redevelopment plans, fell from a week earlier to 21,146 yuan (US$3,175) per square meter across the city, ending its three-week rally during which it stayed above 23,000 yuan per square meter, Shanghai Uwin Real Estate Information Services Co said yesterday.

New home sales, meanwhile, dipped 0.9 percent week-on-week to 229,000 square meters, almost equivalent to the weekly average volume in the past 12 months.

Lu Qilin, a Uwin researcher, said "Medium- to low-end housing projects located beyond the city's Outer Ring Road grabbed the top 10 spots for best selling projects over the past week, our study found that 8 of the 10 projects were sold for an average price of below 20,000 yuan per square meter."

"Developers will probably face pressure amid tightened liquidity," said Song Huiyong, research director at Shanghai Centaline Property Consultants Ltd. "It is unclear how long such moves may affect them."

A 74,091-SQUARE-METER land parcel in Zhaoxiang, a famous Shanghai Villa area, Qingpu District of Shanghai yesterday fetched 1.62 billion yuan (US$243 million) - a record for the area by per gross floor area price.

The plot, meant for residences, was sold for more than 21,000 yuan per square meter. That compared to the previous record of 14,500 yuan per square meter which was set in July 2009 by Gemdale Corp.

Trade Pro Investments Ltd acquired the land which was offered at a starting price of 556 million yuan. There was market speculation it is a project company set up by Hutchison Whampoa (0013.HK) but it still remains to be confirmed by the Hong Kong firm.

Analysts said the per GFA price of the plot did exceed market expectations, but the developer may still be able to make a hefty profit because housing prices in Zhaoxiang, a high-end residential community in the city, still have room to rise in the next few years.
