This represents a 688% first quarter year-over-year growth.
Xinyuan sold 2,144 residential units with a total gross floor area (‘GFA’) of 183,618 square meters in the first quarter of 2008, compared to 297 residential units with a total GFA of 29,827 square meters sold in the same period of the previous year.
Yong Zhang, Xinyuan’s chairman and chief executive officer said, ‘In the first quarter of 2008 we had contracted sales in five cities as compared to only two cities in the same period of 2007. We believe that with our continued expansion in selected Tier II cities, Xinyuan is ideally positioned to benefit from rapidly growing residential housing demand in these markets.’
