In the face of continuous restrictions on purchases and loans in the Mainland, the sales data of developers focusing on first-and second-tier cities in the past six months have also gone from bad to worse. Ye Yingzhi, executive director of China real estate business of Henderson Land (000 12), revealed in an exclusive interview with foreign media that the company's pre-sale amount of mainland properties in the first half of the year was 654.38+04 billion yuan, accounting for only 654.38+04% of the annual target of 654.38+00 billion yuan, but he stressed that he was confident to complete the annual target 100 billion yuan.
Ye Yingzhi said that under the measures of restricting purchases and loans, the demand for speculative investment has been curbed. In the first half of the year, the pre-sale amount of mainland property was only 654.38+04 billion yuan, but he believed that the demand for mainland property was still very large, and he was confident to achieve the annual sales target of 654.38+00 billion yuan. He pointed out that the company's original promotion plan was also concentrated in the second half of the year, in which four or five projects were launched in Nanjing, Suzhou, Xuzhou, Chongqing and Shenyang in July and August, and it is estimated that 4 billion to 5 billion yuan will be cashed out from sales, so it is confident to complete the annual target.
He also said that the company has more than10.50 billion square feet of land reserve in the mainland, and it is estimated that 3 billion to 4 billion yuan will be used to increase the land reserve in the future, mainly in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Liaoning and other areas with rapid economic growth.
When asked if he would consider splitting the leased property in the Mainland and listing it in the form of real estate trust fund (REIT), he said that the rental yield of Grade A office buildings in first-tier cities such as Beijing and Shanghai is relatively low, and will be considered according to market conditions after the rental yield is further improved.
Henderson Land was put on file for investigation on suspicion of fraud and evasion of purchase restriction policy.
Relevant parties have filed an investigation into the "evasion" incident of the developer of Henderson Kowloon Tianyu Project. Once this news was released, it immediately attracted a lot of attention. It is understood that the project was developed by Hong Kong real estate company Henderson Land in Nanjing. Previously, it was exposed that it was suspected of forging the purchase certificate to circumvent the purchase restriction policy (that is, "bypassing the limit"), so that some people who already own two or more houses can buy houses again. According to the reporter's investigation, this situation is not a case in Nanjing's high-end property market.
In this regard, a person in charge of the Nanjing Municipal Construction and Construction Committee told the reporter that the relevant departments of the Committee are investigating and verifying the illegal detour purchase restriction of Henderson Jiuyong Tianyu Project. If the project does violate the rules, the Committee will give a penalty notice according to relevant laws and regulations.
