China Commercial Real Estate Industry Report, 2009-2010

Along with the economic recovery of China in 2009, commercial real estate market showed robust trend with the sales and areas sold soaring month by month.

From January to May, 2010, the accumulative areas sold of office building rose 74.5% year-on-year while that of commercial housing was up 45.7% year-on-year, much higher than the 19.9% growth of the areas sold of commercial residential buildings.
Generally speaking, the regions with relatively developed business real estate are mostly regions with higher level of economic development & opening-up degree and strong business climate, e.g. Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, etc., where there are the blooming demand, active leasing & deals, and good project quality, shaping great disparity with the second and third-tier cities. In 2009, Shanghai, Beijing, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Guangdong ranked the Top 5 in the gross investment of office building nationwide with the total proportion amounting to 56%.
