Mortgage Lending in the country has been increasing very noticeably. Within the year 2000 to 2004, the mortgage lending rate has been 54.9%. However, in the year 2003, the entire mortgage lending was only 8.5% of total loans and a mere 11.1% of the entire GDP. Mortgages in China are considered opportunity for best lending, having asset quality and potential for very good development and growth. But the privatizations of housing in the year 1998 has resulted in making mortgage debt a small part of the entire property assets outstanding.
Housing Mortgage in China plays an important role in China Mortgage. The bank which provides most home mortgage loans in China is the China Construction Bank. Four commercial banks are owned by the state and they play a significant role in the sector of China Mortgage. A recent happening in this sector is the government's decision to allow the entry of foreign lenders after the entry of China in WTO.
An agreement has been signed between The International Finance Corporation (IFC) and Advantage Services Holding Limited (ASHL) for investment in Advantage China Holdings Limited (ACHL). This is surely going to have a very positive effect on the mortgage industry in the country.
