Most Of Asia Doesn’t Have China’s Property Woes

ASIA

Residential property markets in Asia are mixed with some, such as Singapore, soaring above trend, whereas others are stagnating or declining, and it is not just China. Tighter monetary policy and debt issues have impacted some markets, including Korea. Korean house prices steadied in H2 2023 to be down 4.7% y/y in December but they remain above trend. Housing is not an area of concern for most countries with positive annual growth in prices and some below-trend markets are correcting for a period of above trend house price inflation. Where prices are falling, such as in China, HK and Korea, policy makers have either reacted or are watching developments closely.
