Shenzhen denies restricting property price hikes  

深圳规划国土委：并未出台新的“限涨令”政策

针对网络媒体关于深圳出台“限涨令”的报道，深圳市规划和国土资源委员会13日傍晚在其官方微博回应称，深圳并未出台新的“限涨令”政策，而是在近期房价出现异动的情况下，深圳两年来已实行的引导房地产开发企业理性定价的调控机制及时发挥了作用。

Shenzhen (CNS) -- South China's Shenzhen denied media reports that it was imposing a local "price increase restriction" on homes since last week.

The city's Urban Planning Land and Resources Commission said on its official blog on Sina that the city did not enforce any new policy on curbing property prices and that it will stick to the existing one.

It said that in the past two years, the city has implemented rules issued by the State Council, which requires prices for all properties to be marked clearly and be consistent. The city also encouraged real estate developers to price new homes reasonably, it added.

Since Tuesday, reports had spread widely online that Shenzhen has imposed a policy that bars any monthly increases in the average price of new residential projects.
