據胡潤研究院最新發表的數據，雖然萬達董事長王健林超過阿里巴巴的馬云，榮登中國首富，然而以房地產謀生的人數卻急劇下降。
根據2015年胡潤財富榜，榜上靠房地產致富的人數已經降到最少，從去年的19.8%以及1999年的過半跌落到僅占該榜的16.1%。
1999年開始，中國房地產行業便處于黃金時代，盡管2008年房價大幅跌落，之后便回升，到2013年，大城市房價屢創新高。
然而，房地產行業富人的數量卻減少了，表明在國家經濟中的支柱地位減弱。
此榜也說明，從事制造業與信息科技行業的富人數量急劇增加，這說明中國正處于經濟結構重建的時期。最大的住宅房地產開發商，萬科總裁郁亮表示：“對整體國家經濟而言，房地產行業將不再如10年前那般重要。”
經濟普遍放緩致使許多房地產開發商為了長期發展，進軍其他行業。例如投資影視娛樂，王健林便是很好的例子。胡潤研究院總裁、首席研究員胡潤表示：“僅五年前王健林將其超過總資產的95%投于房地產，而現在投資卻不足50%.”（中國進出口網）
Although Wang Jianlin of Wanda snatches back the Number One position from Jack Ma of Alibaba as the wealthiest person in China, the number of those who make a living in real estate is dropping continuously, according to a newly released data by the Hurun Research Institute.
According to the Hurun Property Rich List 2015, the number of individuals on their Hurun Rich List who made their fortunes from real estate has dropped to the lowest point ever,making up 16.1 per cent of the list, down from 19.8 per cent last year and over half in 1999.
The real estate industry in China enjoyed a golden era for over a decade starting from1999. Although housing price dropped greatly in 2008, it bounced back until 2013 with prices in major cities consistently breaking records.
However, the number of the wealthy in real estate field has experienced a decline,indicating the sector's pillar position in the national economy has weakened.
The list also demonstrates that the number of the wealthy making a living in manufacturing and information technology industries shows a rapid increase, showing thatChina is going through a process of economic restructuring.“The real estate industry is not as important as it was 10 years ago within the overall national economy,” said Yu Liang, President of Vanke, the largest residential real estate developer.
“The general slowdown in the economy has driven many real estate developers to diversify into other industries for long term growth. Investing into cinemas and entertainment,Wang Jianlin is a perfect example of this. Wang holds less than 50 per cent assets in real estate now which took up over 95 per cent of his whole assets just five years ago,” said Rupert Hoogewerf, chairman and chief researcher at Hurun Report Inc.
