Annotations:
1. The data of newly constructed residential buildings in 70 cities are calculated based on the network transaction records data.
2. Since January 2011, NBS started to implement “Survey Program on Sales Prices of Residential Buildings”. In October 2011, 70 large and medium cities submitted network transaction records. Since the initial time of network transaction records submitted in each city is not synchronized, hence, before October 2012, part of the city’s data with historical data is not entirely comparable.
3. The calculation of year-on-year index. Due to the transaction records of network contracts started to report since October 2012, the year-on-year data under the same scope can not be calculated. In order to sustain the continuity and stability for the calculation on the year-on-year data, NBS adopts technical methods on the calculation of year-on-year data, based on the concerning statistical data on housing price in 2011 and transaction records in 2012, according to the mathematics relations between year-on-year and month-on-month. The formula is:
P201201-P201207 stands for price in January and July, 2012.P201107-P201112 stands for price in July to December, 2011.
4. The newly constructed residential buildings includes affordable housing, the newly constructed commercial residential buildings excludes affordable housing.
5. “-” in table denotes no deal record this month.
