Survey Of Beijing's Affordable Housing Chaos: More Than Half Of Listed Transactions Or Rentals

Beijing for recent exposure Affordable housing The authorities responded for the first time.

At 15 o'clock in August 16th, the Beijing Municipal Housing Construction Commission replied to the interview letter. In July 21st, August 2nd and August 8th, the Construction Committee had checked the two items of affordable housing in Xingkang home limited price commodity housing project and Fengtai District Songjiazhuang affordable housing project. It was found that most families could comply with the relevant provisions of the affordable housing, but the surrounding property agency had the phenomenon of rental housing, and ordered the intermediary to immediately rectify and conduct interviews with its responsible person.

The Beijing Municipal Construction Commission said it would strengthen the late management of affordable housing in the future. Measures include requiring property companies to assist the government in the late management of the affordable housing; to investigate the real estate intermediaries' rented housing related businesses; and widely accept the masses' reporting of rent fraud. fraudulently purchase Phenomenon.

However, the reply did not touch on the details of the overall investigation of the affordable housing rent.

In August 11th, our reporter visited the Vanke Red Lion home again, and found that the limited price housing estate still had external rental situation. Many landlords directly gave housing agents to intermediaries.

In addition, this newspaper jointly with an intermediary organization in Beijing found that the first generation of economically affordable housing in Beijing was completed and delivered to about 140 thousand units. At present, about 130 thousand sets of transactions have been converted into second-hand commercial housing transactions through genuine and fake transactions, and the remaining 10 thousand are about 40% of the total rentals. The second generation of economically affordable housing in Beijing has been completed and delivered to about 100 thousand units. Currently, about 25% of them are rented out; two restricted rooms have been built for about 70 thousand sets so far, so far, about 70 thousand have been built in Beijing.

Since the housing reform in 1998, Beijing has been insisting on large-scale construction of affordable housing, but its affordable housing distribution and subsequent management has been criticized by experts and scholars. At present, housing prices are high. Beijing, like many other cities, has jumped into an unprecedented period of affordable housing construction before and after 2011. Obviously, how to properly monitor relevant loopholes is not only a problem faced by a city in Beijing.

Affordable housing lease

According to our understanding, due to the recent Beijing City Construction Commission's severe warning, Beijing's major intermediaries claimed to have stopped taking over affordable housing rental business.

However, the provisions of the Construction Commission did not affect the two landlord Ren Sheng (alias) to sublet him in a single bedroom in Fengtai District Vanke Red Lion home.

The district is the first affordable housing project in Beijing, and the first batch of owners in July 2010. In the same year, in November, Ren Sheng rent a room in the two houses of the district from the intermediary, but so far he has not seen the owner himself.

At present, because of the change of work, Ren Sheng is eager to sublet a single room. Reporters on the grounds of renting revealed that this is a set of 90 square meters of two rooms and one living room, the living room is made by intermediaries into 4 compartments. Because there are too many partitions and no air circulation, the two most ventilated tenants in the summer are unable to endure suffocating and moving away.

Partition of group rent is prohibited by Ministry of housing and Beijing. In May this year, the Beijing Municipal Construction Commission said that the special law enforcement inspection was carried out against the behavior of blocking group rent, but it failed to really eliminate such phenomena.

According to Ren Sheng, the tenants of this apartment are basically migrant workers and graduating students. The house rented by Ren Sheng has two bedrooms plus 4 compartments in the living room. The monthly rental income of the 6 rooms can reach up to 4000 yuan.

He also knew that this was a set of affordable housing and should not be used for rent, but he said he would never be repossessed. He had been here for nearly a year and had not had a check-up.

Benevolence is not empty. You can see everywhere in this new district. Rent Advertising, the surrounding intermediary almost all have multiple sets of rental housing. Although the recent "wind is getting tighter", the general intermediary has avoided taking the lead to temporarily take over the rental housing, but some small agents still secretly represent the rental business of the district.

The reporter tried to contact the real owner of the affordable housing, but failed many times.

What kind of people are these?

Ren Zhiqiang, chairman of Huayuan Real estate, has thrown extreme remarks, "who is the best to protect housing?" Words may not be accurate, but they give rise to echoes.

According to the regulations of Beijing municipality, the annual household income, housing and total net assets of families in the eight districts of Beijing City applying for the purchase of limited price commodities should meet the following criteria: the family population of 3 or less, the annual household income should be below 88 thousand yuan and the total value of family assets should be 570 thousand yuan and below; the family income of 4 or more families should be below 116 thousand yuan and the total value of family assets should be below 760 thousand yuan and below.

But this newspaper twists and turns to understand that some rental housing security housing owners, the name is not only a suite. This group of people's actual living conditions are inconsistent with policies, and have been exposed everywhere.

Previously, a small number of private cars in a low rent housing estate in Shijiazhuang had aroused widespread public doubt. The Shijiazhuang government later held a press conference to say that 3 households were not eligible for low rent housing. {page_break}

When visiting the Red Lion home, it was on the morning of the working day, but the two empty areas in the district were still full of cars. According to the reporter's rough statistics, the total number of households with 1857 sets of affordable housing (including 8000 square meters of low rent housing) has stopped over 100 vehicles on weekdays.

"According to the annual household income stipulated by the Beijing limited price housing policy, how can the new owners of these affordable housing buy their cars economically?" A senior intermediary worker in Beijing is doubtful. He even pessimistic believes that people who really meet the qualification of the limited price room are actually unable to buy the limited price housing.

It is based on the example of a family of 3. If the family's annual income is below 88 thousand yuan and below, generally speaking, the main income of the family is two people, that is, the average annual income of the people is only 44 thousand yuan. That is to say, only those who earn less than 4000 yuan a month can be eligible to apply for the protection of Beijing housing. Today, where prices continue to rise, how can families like this get rid of daily expenses and mortgage loans? Even if you buy a car, the price of oil and parking, including the cost of maintaining a car, should not be borne by ordinary families.

"On the surface, every link of affordable housing can not see loopholes, but the result is a large number of affordable housing for external rental." The intermediaries said.

According to the policy, families living in affordable housing should not own second housing units, which means that the protection of housing rental is not normal at all. In the interview, insiders asked: if affordable housing or limited price housing are rented, then who will protect the affordable housing?

Last year, the reporter investigated Beijing Golden Corner Mei and garden, and happened to encounter the owner himself during the unannounced visits. It was discovered that the real identity of the landlord was a civil servant. He had another suite in other places. Jin Yu's limited price housing was only used for rent, and was prepared to wait until the transfer period specified by the government was sold.

Obviously, many of these are not strict or even illegal.

In twenty-first Century, Lin Lei, vice president of China's real estate market development center, revealed that "most places in the protection of housing access to family income, housing situation as a measure of standards, and set up a variety of threshold for audit, publicity and so on. However, due to the widespread separation of residents and households, the grass-roots government still faces great difficulties in accurately examining the applicants' income and assets. The public will be publicized everywhere, but few people will pay attention to and investigate whether these groups are really difficult.

The intermediaries that assisted journalists in the survey also listed to reporters the current housing security areas with relatively serious rental in Beijing, including Haidian District's Qisheng homeland, Baoli Jiayuan, Chaoyang District Fudi, Beichen Fuli, Fuli sunshine, Fengtai District's Hongye Hing Garden two, Tongzhou District Banbidian Longhu, Dafang, Shijingshan District Jinding sunshine, etc.

Vanke Red Lion home near the Beijing Metro Line 5 South Terminal starting point, on the north line 5, is the famous Beijing Tiantongyuan affordable housing estate, as we all know, it has long been the largest rental housing area in Beijing.

Institutional loopholes

At present, apart from interviews, the government seems unable to find a better way to deal with the late regulation of affordable housing rentals.

An intermediary who did not want to reveal his name said that the Beijing Municipal Housing Construction Commission had no other effective channels to regulate the security of housing rent except the intermediary.

According to the briefing, the Municipal Construction Committee will conduct an occasional check on the rental housing situation of the intermediary stores every year, but after checking, the agency is reluctant to give up the protection of the housing rental market.

The person said, for many years in real estate, he has not yet seen a case of the government's recovery of the insured housing for rent, and the regulation of the rental housing market by late regulation has achieved little success. The problem is that even if the fraudulent purchase of affordable housing is found, it is simply disqualification, and no other cost will be paid.

Lin Lei thinks, "because the price of affordable housing is more than half of the price of commercial housing, the income is huge. Some residents do not hesitate to cheat and evade auditing. And the punishment intensity after being discovered is not enough to frighten the offenders, and encourages the fluke mentality of buying people.

Gu Yunchang, vice president of China Real Estate Research Association, said that behind the proliferation of affordable housing rents, policy loopholes are the root cause. He said that in recent years, the types of affordable housing in Beijing have increased the price limit rooms, but the government has never explained whether the limited price housing is affordable housing or commercial housing.

He further pointed out that in the "Beijing limited price commodity housing management measures (Trial Implementation)", Beijing has stipulated the auditing standards and the allotment requirements, but it has not stipulated that the limited price rooms are not allowed to rent and operate, nor has it stipulated that after the lease is to be repossessed.

Gu Yunchang believes that this is a vague policy, "theoretically speaking, the limited price housing is commercial housing, but in fact, Beijing has incorporated it into affordable housing projects. Since it is a housing guarantee, it should not guarantee the right to rent and operate."

Gu said that the cost of rent seeking in affordable housing is low, and in fact, it encourages people to break the law.

If the defects of policies and systems are not perfected as soon as possible, the negative effects will be beyond imagination.

Let Gu Yunchang more heartache is that this round of affordable housing construction is too fast to pursue speed, the government departments have not considered clearly who is the main body, but blindly pursue "go all the way up".

Ren Zhiqiang once pointed out in his resignation as president of Huayuan Group, "if these affordable housing is not given to the exclusive protection object, it will evolve into the internal distribution of a specific power class, which will have a great impact on China's future."

Assuming that two years later, the problems brought by this round of affordable housing construction will be exposed and will be very serious.
