Housing Reform in China

3 stages

The first stage (79-88) an experiment stage when changes were

carried out in a piecemeal fashion tested in a few selected cities;

the sale of new housing at construction costs in 1979, and

extended to old public housing in 1980 with share ownership (82-

85). More attributes: land acquisition, compensation and

provision of local public facilities; halted in 1985.

The second stage (89-98) Large-sale housing reform, investment,

management and distribution

The third stage: (98-)

Housing Reform in China

3 stages

The second stage (89-98) Large-sale housing reform, investment,

management and distribution, privatization of public housing,

rental reform, housing finance.

In October 1991, a major national housing reform conference was held in Beijing.

The conference resolution, On Comprehensive Reform of the Urban Housing

System, compiled by the State Council’s Housing Reform Steering Group, was

issued in November 1991. This resolution led to the large-scale sale of existing

public housing at very low prices, particularly to their current occupiers. In 1993,

concern about the low-price sales of public housing led government to suspend the

housing reform programme. In 1993 the sale of existing public-sector housing at

very low prices had been stopped

Housing Reform in Chinaestablishing:

(1) a dual housing provision system with a social housing

supply providing economic and comfortable housing to

middle- and low-income households and a commercial

housing supply for high-income families;

(2) a public and private housing savings system;

(3) housing insurance, finance and loan systems which

would enable both policy-oriented and commercial

developments; and

(4) a healthy, standardized and regulated market system of

property exchange, repair and management.

Housing Reform in China

3 stages

The third stage: (98-)The overall timescale was set at the end of 1998.

Local authorities were left to decide when the change would take place and the details of subsidy policy. In order to catch the last welfare train, some work units could extend the implementation to the year 2000, and bought housing from commercial developers at market prices to sell or allocate to their employees at discounted prices.

The policy aimed to establish a new system so that housing consumption is no longer a burden to the state or work units.

Urban Land Use Reform Land in urban China is owned by the state and administrated

directly by municipalities, rural land has been owned collectively

by rural communities since the Chinese Communist Party took

power in 1949 (Li, 1999). Municipalities can requisition rural

land at its discretion by paying some compensation and

transferring related rural residents into urban registration.

During the pre-reform era (from 1949 to 1979), land users were

all public work units, thus land allocation was based on

administrative planning, land was nominally worthless and the

acquisition of the land was nothing more than a bureaucratic

arrangement.

Land Use Rights System(LURS)

The Land Use Rights system, literally the “paid transfer of

land-use rights” (tudi youchang zhuanran), was made

official by adding the statement “The right of land use can

be transferred in accordance with the relevant legislation”

to the Constitution (Li, 1999). Land still belongs to the

State, making land use rights acceptable on the basis of the

socialist doctrine.

Land Use Rights System(LURS)Land Use Rights (LURs) are separated from ownership rights and

become tradable in the market by private treaty, negotiation and

auction (Li, 1999). LURs are rights with time limits for different kinds

of land use. The longest leasehold term is 70 years for residential, 50

years for industrial, 50 years for educational/cultural and 40 years for

commercial/office according to the 1990 Provisional Regulations on

the Conveyance, Granting and Transferring of the State LUR in Cities

and Towns. Within the leasehold period, LURs can be transferred and

traded with the permission of the government. At the end of this

contract period, the land and all its attachment would automatically

revert to the state without payment and compensation, but the land

users could renew the contract after paying for extension

Home Mortgages

Home mortgages in China, where available at all, usually

require large downpayments and high monthly installments

that few workers can afford (Rosen and Ross, 2000). The

relatively few Chinese citizens who have taken out these

mortgages were largely private business owners or

employees of foreign-funded enterprises that offered

special incentives to enable their workers to buy a home.

Only three Chinese banks (ICBC, ABC and CCB) were

authorised to provide home mortgages prior to 1998.

Hedonic model In the hedonic model formally rendered by Rosen (1974), a

housing unit is described by a vector of n objectively

measurable characteristics. The housing unit (a bundle of

characteristics) commands a price in the market. Various

bundles and their associated prices reveal the implicit

prices of the characteristics, known as hedonic prices.

Hedonic modelAlthough there is no consensus in the literature regarding the

variables to be included into the hedonic price function,

characteristics in three categories are generally considered

appropriate (Bowen, et al., 2001): housing structural

characteristics (S), social and environmental attributes of the

neighbourhoods in which dwelling is located (N), and other

locational characteristics such as accessibility to CBD,

employment and services etc (L). Given appropriately measured

variables in these three categories, it is generally agreed that

proper specification of the hedonic price function accordingly

expresses the market (cross-sectional) prices of housing units as

P=(S, N, L)
