CHINA'S urban property prices climbed in August although the pace was slowing due to the effect of rein-in measures imposed by the central government in April.
Real estate prices in 70 major cities on the Chinese mainland rose 9.3 percent last month, extending its year-on-year gain for 15 consecutive months, the National Bureau of Statistics said yesterday on its Website.
That compares to a growth of 10.3 percent in July, 11.4 percent in June, 12.4 percent in May and 12.8 percent in April, the biggest year-on-year gain since July 2005, when the bureau doubled the number of cities it was tracking.
Month-on-month change was not recorded for the second straight month, the bureau said.
"The year-on-year price growth at a decelerated rate since May indicated that the country's tightening policies have taken effect to curb speculations to some extent," said Sky Xue, an analyst with China Real Estate Information Corp, a major real estate consulting and online services provider.
"But on a month-on-month basis, prices stayed firm mainly because of inadequate supply and strong demand from both end-users and investors."
Across the country, prices of new and existing homes jumped 11.7 percent and 6.2 percent in August from a year earlier, compared with 12.9 percent and 6.7 percent in July respectively. In Shanghai, they rose 6.3 percent and 6.2 percent, respectively.
