A Zigbang official noted, "As the real estate market is shrouded in thick fog of political and economic instability such as impeachment and economic recession, construction companies are expected to deeply ponder their establishments for the first projects in 2025," and added, "In this atmosphere, it remains to be seen whether the planned sales in January will actually materialize into results."
He continued, "Many construction companies have not finalized their annual sales plans for 2025 in this uneasy atmosphere. Some estimate that the planned amount will not even reach 150,000 units. There could be additional amounts from public projects in the first quarter or unconfirmed establishments from construction companies that have not set schedules, so the planned sales for 2025 are very fluid," and emphasized, "As the real estate market shows mixed signals, the standards consumers use to select subscription complexes are bound to become even stricter."
Meanwhile, the sales performance rate for December of last year was reported at 65%. Zigbang surveyed the complexes scheduled for sale in December, totaling 28,070 households, and upon resurveying on the 2nd, it turned out that the actual sales amounted to 18,115 households. The subscription competition rate for complexes nationwide in December showed an average of 3.9 to 1 in the first priority. Although there were concerns that new sales would be significantly delayed amid political turmoil, Zigbang explained that the sales performance rate remained fair as year-end sales proceeded.
