This policy is included in the toolbox of &#34;one city, one policy&#34; as a policy tool for cities to choose autonomously. According to relevant officials from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, this policy will allow more homebuyers to enjoy preferential down payment ratios and interest rates for first-time home loans, helping to reduce the cost of home purchases for residents and better meet the demand for both essential and improved housing.
