Wuhan: 20 percent discount on house purchases
Wuhan, capital of Central China's Hubei province, recently issued a series of measures to let more graduates buy or rent houses at prices 20 percent lower than market rates.
It will also provide more affordable houses and low-rent homes to fresh graduates.
The city has also implemented a new policy to provide easier access to permanent residence.
Graduates with master and doctoral degrees will no longer be limited by age to get residence registration in the city, and the age limits for university graduates and vocational college graduates will be extended to 40 years old from the current 30 years old.
