Nanjing may inspire cities to ease home-buying policy

More cities in China may follow Jiangsu province's Nanjing in easing property policies to attract talent, but the move does not mean that home purchase restrictions will be relaxed nationwide, analysts said.

Nanjing, the capital city of East China's Jiangsu province, announced on Monday that talent in the city will no longer be subjected to household registration restrictions when purchasing their first homes in the city.

This move was announced immediately after Lanzhou, in Northwest China's Gansu province, said last Sunday it would remove property-tightening measures in some suburbs and central districts in the city.
