Together, the region accounts for around half of all residential and commercial property transactions in Taiwan.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/northern-taiwan-home-prices-take-off-in-fourth-quarter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>More: Northern Taiwan home prices take off in fourth quarter<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Analysts attributed the slowdown to effects of the Ghost Month, a traditionally slow season for big-ticket purchases. Observance of the lunar month taboo prompted developers to put listings of presale housing projects on hold, according to Ho Shih-chang, research manager at the magazine.<\/p>\n<p>Consequently, the sub-index on presale residential property projects hit 7.63 in August, a decline of 1.09 points from a month earlier. The figure also marks the second steepest monthly decline in the six factors that comprise the index.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the sub-index on transactions reached just 5.16, a decline of 1.88 points on the month. This is the steepest decline among the six factors.<\/p>\n<p>The sub-index decline comes amid media reports that transactions of residential and commercial property in Taipei, New Taipei and Taoyuan had fallen 26 percent, 22 percent, and 20 percent, respectively.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Transactions in Taipei and nearby cities wane in observance of Ghost
