Tips

culture

In China all urban land is state-owned, so developers buy a fixed-term 使用权 (use right, typically 70 years for housing) via auction - the price paid is the 土地出让金. This is the core of 土地财政 ('land finance'): for many local governments, land sales historically generated a huge share of total revenue.
