The eastern Chinese province of Zhejiang is highly developed and contributes to the real estate business. The paper uses quarterly data from 2011 to 2021 to create a Structural Vector Autoregressive (SVAR) model to explore the empirical dynamics between personal housing credit policies and house price changes in Zhejiang Province, China. Impulse response and variance decomposition research reveal that loan interest rates considerably affect housing values. Interest rates affect property values by 0.85% to 30.19% over time. The initial rise in loan interest rates boosts real estate values, but the successive increase will lower them until stability is reached. Large personal mortgage loans also affect housing prices. Throughout time, the share of factors affecting property prices with respect to mortgage loans ranges from 2.32% to 4.31%. The size of mortgage debt boosts home values. Thus, a corresponding easing of mortgage borrowing ceilings will boost home prices. The causal relationship between GDP and housing price swings is unclear, although its impact is stable with modest variations within a limited range. Zhejiang Province should be cautious when adjusting personal mortgage loans and interest rates while improving regulatory control. These techniques reduce market speculation and negative factors to ensure market stability and longevity.
