GAULARD, Mylène. The Real-Estate Bubble in China. Prob. Des [online]. 2014, vol.45, n.178, pp.63-88. ISSN 0301-7036.

Although some economists have rejected the hypothesis of a real-estate bubble in China, the rise in real-estate prices has gradually become detached from the increase in real salaries, principally in major Chinese cities. Specifically, the exponential growth in bank loans may stir up fears of problems related to over-indebtedness for a considerable number of real-estate developers in the near future. However, these difficulties are only the tip of the iceberg of deeper problems within the Chinese economy.
