CREIS records a 1.45 percent increase in April, following the 1.90 percent increase in March. The big difference was the diffusion: last month the top 10 cities' home prices increased 2.52 percent, well ahead of the 100-city survey. In April, prices in the top 10 cities climbed 1.53 percent, in line with the national figure.
Speculative fever shifted out of the first-tier: Huizhou in Guangdong saw prices rise 6.30 percent, up from 6.05 percent last month.
Huizhou is east of Shenzhen and benefiting from the explosion in Shenzhen home prices. It's also a tourist area with lots of waterfront property. From 2014: Huizhou, Zhuhai Become Ghost Towns; Tourist Areas Hit Hard By Real Estate Slump
As with the 2015 stock market rally, if this rise in home prices is sustainable, it points to much higher inflation. The pace of the price rise is not supported by economic growth or real wage growth.
