According to the source, S&P Global and Morgan Stanley expect further weakness in China’s property market in 2026, driven by large unsold inventory, subdued demand, and ongoing developer stress. The downturn is described as a material drag on growth and confidence, with stabilization potentially delayed until 2027 even in top-tier cities.
Source reporting through late 2025 and early 2026 indicates China’s property downturn continues to weigh on household confidence, consumption, and local fiscal conditions. Policymakers are expanding targeted support (notably VAT relief on resales and local easing) while managing developer restructurings and monitoring spillovers to banks and the real economy.
China’s housing market remained under sustained pressure through late 2025, with falling prices, weak sales, and reduced household borrowing weighing on growth. Targeted project support has helped manage delivery risks, but inventory conversion and demand recovery face economic and confidence constraints.
Source reporting citing NBS data indicates China’s housing market weakened further in 2025, with broad price declines across 70 cities and especially sharp drops in first-tier resale markets. The document also points to collapsing investment and growing distressed inventory, suggesting prolonged balance-sheet stress for households, developers, and lenders.
According to NBS data cited in the source, China’s 70-city housing market saw continued year-on-year price declines in December 2025, with especially sharp drops in first-tier secondhand markets. WIND-referenced developer results suggest widespread 2025 losses, reinforcing risks of a prolonged deleveraging cycle affecting households, lenders, and growth.
