根据上海房地产交易中心发布的政策，一个上海单身户主若登记了一套房子就不能再购买另外一套，中国证券报报道。
As the report said, under the old policy that released in 2011, one single native person in Shanghai can buy a second house after the first one is registered under the owner's name.
据报道，在2011年发布的老政策下，上海的单身本土公民可以在登记了一套房子的情况下购买第二套房子。
Industry insiders believe that updating the rules is to remedy the loophole of the original version.
业内人士分析认为更新的政策是为了弥补原有政策的漏洞。
Xue Jianxiong, research director of China Real Estate Information Corporation noted that the new initiative shows that the real estate market is strongly regulated by the Shanghai government, and it is also a response to rumors that Shanghai intends to loosen real estate market regulations.
Liu Haisheng, general director of Shanghai Housing Support and Housing Management Bureau, said that speculative investment demands in the Shanghai real estate market have been contained and Shanghai will continue to implement the policy of real estate market regulation. There is currently no scheduled date for the abolishment of the restrictions, said Liu.
