Reuters reports that China issued a series of new regulations on Friday (August 28) aimed at reducing property developers' reliance on pre-sale funds for uncompleted homes. For decades, developers have used the pre-sale model—selling homes before they are built or ready for delivery—to raise capital, a high-debt, high-turnover business model. Since the 2021 real estate crisis, this model has become increasingly unsustainable. Funding shortages and stalled projects have triggered buyer protests and further dampened market confidence. Consequently, authorities hope that the new regulations issued on Friday will control associated risks and revive market confidence.
