Rents in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other major cities also saw rapid increase between January and June this year. The average rental has exceeded the average monthly incomes of many fresh college graduates and migrant workers in major cities.

Analysts are divided on the reasons behind surging rents. Some have attributed it to rising demand from fresh graduates seeking apartments for rent during the peak summer season. Others have argued that tightening measures introduced to cool the property fever in the first half pushed many potential buyers into opting for rented accommodation instead.

Still others have questioned the role of real estate agents, who, they say, may have colluded to boost profit margins by freezing the supply of homes for rent.

——Excerpt from Rental concerns

Apartment rents in China's major cities witnessed sustained growth in the first six months of the year even though property prices saw a gradual drop.

In Beijing, the average rent of an apartment rose to 2,792 yuan (US$410.6) a month in the first half of the year, a year-on-year jump of 18.5 percent, according to data from Homelink Real Estate, a leading property agent in the capital.

——Excerpt from Apartment rents jump in cities

Beijing's real estate agents are far from happy following the release of a regulatory policy in April that has knocked purchasing prices down by around 15 percent.

Chang Yongfeng, an agent with the Anhuiqiao division of Homelink Real Estate, a Beijing-based chain, told METRO the number of clients viewing apartments has risen during the last week but few are buying.

Chang said because speculators are being cut out of the market, due to strict restrictions on households purchasing more than one apartment in Beijing, his remaining customers are genuine first-time buyers.
