SALES of new homes in Shanghai continued to be sluggish last week as housing prices remained high.

New home sales, excluding those of affordable housing, fell 1.7 percent from a week earlier to 134,900 square meters while the average price dipped 0.2 percent to 22,313 yuan (US$3,492) per square meter, according to a research released yesterday by Shanghai Deovolente Realty Co.

Sales of luxury homes that cost more than 50,000 yuan per square meter declined 15.2 percent from a week earlier to 6,700 square meters, the data showed.
