Luyang enters 2026 as a rental-dominated powerhouse, with the lack of new residential sales inventory keeping the buy index at a standstill. The market is currently squeezed by high demand for renovated 'heritage' units near the urban core, leading to a steady climb in rental yields to ¥27.5/m². While supply remains tight in the premium sector, the revitalization of old commercial blocks has created a surge in high-end micro-apartments. Verdict: Luyang is the ultimate 'landlord's market' where rental cash flow trumps capital appreciation potential.
