Major real estate transactions in Beijing have unleashed new market signals. On July 11, the reporter learned from CBRE CBRE that in the first half of 2026, the Beijing property investment market recorded a cumulative turnover of 25.7 billion yuan, an increase of 50% over the previous year, the highest level in the same period since 2022. As of the second quarter, CBRE CBRE data showed that a total of 9 transactions were completed, with a transaction amount of about 12.36 billion yuan. Also, according to the JLL report, the largest transaction recorded in the second quarter was the Dinghao DH3 project, which was taken over by a fund jointly established by Kaicheng Investment and a number of domestic insurance institutions. In addition, buyers for personal use remain relatively active, and the artificial intelligence company Zhipu announced the acquisition of Diamond Tower in Zhongguancun Software Park in the Shangdi region at a total price of about 360 million yuan, and plans to use it as the company's headquarters. As for the reason for the increase in turnover, Sun Zutian, head of CBRE North China Research Department, believes that current demand is gradually being released, whether in terms of transaction volume or transaction volume. Some of the higher-quality investable products are entering the market one after another. Previously, whether it was the quality of the property itself or its cash flow performance, it was not very attractive to investors, or was not attractive enough in terms of price. But now, sellers' pricing is generally more relaxed, and for buyers, this is a good time to enter the market at a lower price.
