Guiyang property market stabilizes amid rising demand for quality housing

The Guiyang Real Estate Association, in collaboration with Guizhou Zhenghe Real Estate Consulting Co, released a housing market report at the end of the first quarter of 2026. The report shows that Guiyang's property market has maintained steady improvement, driven by growing demand for upgraded housing and a continued focus on quality. It is rapidly creating a new development model centered on high-quality residential products.

The clustering effect of leading real estate enterprises and key projects has continued to strengthen. The top 20 developers by sales area accounted for 56.28 percent of total transactions citywide, while the top 20 projects accounted for 44.44 percent, an increase of 19 percentage points year-on-year. Buyers have become increasingly rational, showing a stronger preference for projects with solid brand reputation, reliable delivery, and high-quality construction.

The market structure has also become more diversified and balanced, with State-owned and private developers developing in parallel and the share of private enterprises increasing significantly. Upgraded housing has become the main driver of transactions, with units of 120 square meters and above continuing to gain popularity. Demand varies across districts, with Guanshanhu district and the Guizhou Shuanglong Airport Economic Zone showing particularly strong performance.

Industry experts noted that Guiyang issued the "Technical Guidelines for 'Good Housing' (Trial)" in 2025, promoting a shift toward higher-quality residential development. The guidelines further optimize housing design in terms of spatial layout, sound insulation, green energy efficiency, and smart features, significantly improving the overall living experience.

Meanwhile, supported by its pleasant climate and strong tourism appeal, Guiyang's summer retreat and residential tourism property sector continues to expand, with a growing number of out-of-town buyers emerging as a new source of demand.
