Quake to hurt local property market

The May 12 earthquake could cripple Sichuan province's property market in the short term by dampening consumers' will to buy and reducing investment-oriented purchases, industry experts said.

BrilliantStone, a Beijing-headquartered real estate research and advisory firm, said the "psychological shadow" hanging over the economic losses in Sichuan and Chongqing could diminish enthusiasm for purchasing property in the area.

Yang Hongxu, deputy director of Shanghai-based E-house Real Estate Research Institution, said the quake would also largely reduce investment-oriented purchases in quake-affected areas, putting greater pressure on property prices in the region.

But Bohai Securities analyst Zhou Hu said the quake's impact on Sichuan's property market would be limited.

Most leading property developers only have projects in the provincial capital Chengdu, and few have projects in the nearby counties most devastated by the quake, Zhou said.

In addition, these counties - Wenchuan, Maoxian, Beichuan, Qingchuan and Dujiangyan - haven't traditionally been hives of market demand in the region, he added.

"So while the earthquake would weigh on property sales in Sichuan and Chongqing in the short term, it's unlikely it would hex these markets in the long run," Zhou said.

Some insiders believe the quake would instead boost housing demand, because so many homes were destroyed in the disaster.

Tremors felt

Chengdu is a bridgehead for national real estate companies' expansions into Southwest China, and most firms have been scrambling to snap up land parcels in the provincial capital. However, the earthquake also affected their business in the city.

An Orient Securities report said that among listed property developers, Vanke will be most affected by the quake, because it has numerous projects in Chengdu.

"Vanke has seven projects under construction in Chengdu this year, with completed acreage expected to exceed 600,000 sq m. So far, more than 200,000 sq m have been sold, but the sales process would slow, and the price would also drop," the report said.

R&F Properties President Zhang Li told media earlier the earthquake could shave 100 million yuan to 200 million yuan off the company's business but wouldn't change its 24 billion yuan sales target this year.

The earthquake didn't much impact CapitaLand, a Singapore developer with a number of projects in Chengdu and Chongqing, the company said. CapitaLand China President Lin Mingyan said the firm hasn't wavered in its determination to invest in Chengdu and China.

"Except for the splitting of a wall of a commercial property in Mianyang, we didn't suffer any property or personnel losses from the quake," Lin said.

However, acting in line with relevant stipulations, CapitaLand postponed construction of a residential project slated to break ground in May. But it will go forward with two other residential projects according to their original timetables.

Getting involved

Many property developers have adjusted their business plans in Sichuan to join in reconstruction.

Vanke, the country's largest developer, said in a recent statement to the Shenzhen bourse that it would spend 100 million yuan on reconstruction in earthquake-affected areas within three to five years.

"All of this reconstruction work would be done without commercial intentions and would be free of charge to the beneficiaries," the statement said.

Runfeng Real Estate Co, a mid-sized, Beijing-based property developer, announced a 10 million yuan Sichuan donation plan soon after the earthquake. Of the money, 7 million yuan would be used to rebuild a school and a hospital in the most devastated areas.

"We've signed an agreement with the Red Cross Society of China on the reconstruction plan, according to which both the school and hospital would be located in a village or county," Runfeng Real Estate General Manager Wang Yu said.

Beijing Bocheng Real Estate Co also said it hoped to participate in reconstruction work, although it has no branches in Chengdu or Chongqing.

The company's general manager, Lin Yiming, said the firm would pay extra attention to the buildings' sturdiness and ability to withstand earthquakes.

"In addition to construction quality, location was also important when the quake struck," Lin said. "So we would first rigorously investigate the locations and then focus on construction quality."
