Analysts say developers are in a refinancing rush to expand further and replenish liquidity.
But the China Securities Regulatory Commission may not approve a developer's refinancing plan until China eases its property curbs, according to analysts.
The State Council, or China's cabinet, issued a notice in April to tame the country's rising housing prices. It required the CSRC to postpone approval on the listings, refinancing and restructure of property developers.
China's August housing prices rose at the slowest pace in the year, with prices in the country's 70 major cities growing by 9.3 percent year-on-year, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.
