Value of residential housing sold in Shanghai 1995-2022
In 2022, the total value of residential housing sold in Shanghai, China surpassed 693 billion yuan, increasing from the previous year. This growth was mainly fueled by the significant price rise in residential housing in the city. In 2017, the government of Shanghai introduced several strict regulations on the housing market, intending to curb speculations. The policies resulted in a sharp decline in the market between 2016 and 2017, while also causing further price increases in the years that followed.
