The government work report of 2021 proposes: to stabilize land price, house price and expectation, and solve the outstanding problems of housing in big cities; effectively increase the supply of government-subsidized rental housing and shared ownership housing; try our best to help new citizens and young people to alleviate housing difficulties.With the development of new urbanization, there is a "housing sandwich class"  that is neither the object of security nor can it purchase commercial housing, and its scale is growing day by day. In recent years, the housing difficulties of talents in the first and second tier cities have become more and more prominent due to the soaring house prices and rents, which has brought severe challenges to the majority of new citizens and young people. Affected by the soaring house prices and the purchase restriction policy, this group is generally facing the dilemma of not qualified to buy, and can't afford to buy or rent houses.The introduction of shared ownership housing has greatly changed the expectation of price increase in the housing market, allowing the sandwich class and those who have no real estate able to be diverted from the commercial housing market, which reduces the pressure on them to buy houses. Its promotion measures are as follows:First, implement policies according to urban characteristics and clarify the size of the sandwich class in different citiesSecond, conduct in-depth investigation, improve and strengthen the top-level design of the systemThird, strengthen supervision and promote sustainable development of shared ownership housing
