The saying, “nine children are born to one mother and nine children are different”, has been taken to the extreme by the 700 buildings of the beijing tianjin。
In 1999, the first group of super-communities outside the northern five ring entered the market, at $265 per square metre, at a price of less than 150,000, and was considered the last ticket to beijing by countless families in need. More than 20 years later, the maximum listing price was close to 56,000, but part of the old building fell by 20,000. On the same ground, the price gap is over 30,000. Why
At the turning point of tianjin, almost every node of beijing house was set. In 2007, the subway line 5 was connected, with the unit price rising from $4,800 to $7,000, an increase of nearly 50 per cent a year; in 2010, it broke from 10,000 to 20,000 in 2013; in 2023, the north segment of line 17 was opened and commuted to the centre of the city in less than 27 minutes, with a maximum of 3 per cent at 42,000. But strangely, the subway went through and the house price went up. The average price of the tamarindium in 2025 was approximately $28,769, down from 33620 in 2024 and 37792 in 2023。
The problem is inside. The unit price of the next new house is stable at over 43,000, and the park of the national hyon palace has even reported $565. 5; the reference price for the zone is only $27161, which is as low as $25191, which is 25 per cent lower than the average price for the zone. In the same community, the goods room with the elevator and the old and no elevators were completely out of the two price curves。
Why is it so hard? First, building age and elevator. A large number of six-storey buildings built in the district between 1999 and 2003 did not have elevators, and young buyers came to ask first. Second, the nature of property rights. Early entry into the market for suitable housing is made up of land concessions, with high transaction costs and difficult loans, and buyers hesitate to settle their debts. Third, household mismatch. The proportion of households of 150 m2 or more in the plate is nearly 30%, with buyers targeting small and medium-sized households. There is a large house of 205 flats, down to less than 20,000 per unit. Fourth, close to the subway. The source of housing in the immediate vicinity of the subway station is nearly $1 million per square metre, two kilometres from the northernmost end of the community。
In april 2026, beijing launched the third round of the day back action plan, with an investment of approximately $34. 3 billion, covering 127 projects, with 10,000 additional parking spaces, 7,800 degrees and a network density of 7. 2 kilometres per square kilometre. The first two rounds had already upgraded 538 buildings, 2. 7 million square metres, and 726 elevators had been upgraded in 2025. These changes must be more comfortable. However, the root of the division of the house price is not compatible with the quality and property properties of the house itself. The policy is likely to take the residential experience upwards, and it may not be enough for five years to keep the old house, which is over 20 years old and out of date, after the last new house at a price。
From $265 to $56,000, the tunnel completed its journey from beijing to beijing through the first steps. The era of widespread housing has turned out to be one in which the quality of housing, the clarity of property rights, and mobility are central to determining the value of a house. The same community, the two sides of the story, is the most straightforward answer from the market。
