# China Index Academy: Expectations in the real estate market and buyer confidence have somewhat recovered, with a significant rebound in market activity in October

According to the Zhitong Finance APP, the China Index Academy stated that under the promotion of a package of policies, expectations in the real estate market and buyer confidence have somewhat recovered, with a noticeable rebound in market activity in October. In the short term, considering the lagging nature of online signing data, it is expected that the activity level of online signed transactions will continue into the first half of November. Currently, the core city markets have shown initial signs of stabilizing after a decline in both volume and price. If supportive policies can continue to be introduced to consolidate the effects of previous measures, core cities may be expected to stabilize after the decline.

In October, various central ministries continued to introduce policies to promote the "stabilization after decline" of the real estate market. The National Development and Reform Commission proposed "comprehensive policy measures to promote stabilization in the real estate market in response to its continued weakness"; the Ministry of Finance proposed special bonds to support the recovery of idle land and existing commercial housing; the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and four other ministries introduced a "combination punch" of policies to promote stabilization, proposing "four cancellations, four reductions, and two increases." At the same time, the central bank's interest rate cut was implemented, with both the 1-year and 5-year LPRs lowered by 25 basis points. Supported by the "package" of policies since the end of September, the transaction volume of second-hand homes in key cities significantly rebounded in October, and prices also showed signs of stabilizing after a decline.
