Flooding on 11 September not only put a damper on interest in buying in certain areas (like Hsichih, where real estate prices had only started to recover this year), but also subdued the traditional home selling peak that falls around the Mid-Autumn Festival.
緊接著九月發生「九一一水災」，不僅沖掉了部分地區的買氣（例如今年房價開始有起色的汐止），也重挫了九二八中秋節建築業傳統檔期的氣勢。
