[경제]During the first quarter of this year, apartment rents in Seoul fell by 67%.

[앵커]

Statistics show that two-thirds of apartment charter transactions in Seoul in the first quarter of this year were contracted at lower prices than in the fourth quarter of last year.

It is evaluated that the change in demand for jeonse to monthly rent due to the increase in loan interest rates has had an effect.

It is an apartment with a size of 1,100 units in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.

In September last year, the lease for a unique area of ​​84㎡ won 1.36 billion, but in February this year, the same area was contracted for more than 400 million won.

An apartment in Geumcheon-gu, Seoul is in a similar situation.

The charter deposit price, which rose to 600 million won a year ago based on a unique 84㎡, is now the top half of 300 million won.

During the first quarter of this year, 32.7% of the transactions in which the deposit was raised or held were 32.7% of the net jeonse transactions for apartments in Seoul, excluding monthly rent with a guarantee.

67.3% of contracts were signed with lower deposits than in the fourth quarter last year.

The ratio of jeonse transactions with a deposit of less than KRW 400 million increased by 7.8% points, but the ratio of jeonse transactions with deposits greater than KRW 900 million decreased by 4.2 percentage points.

[김인만 / 김인만 부동산연구소 소장 : 여전히 높은 금리로 대출 이자 부담이 있고, 최근 전세금을 돌려받지 못하는 상황이 있기 때문에 높은 전세 가격은 부담스러워하는 상황입니다.]

In the second half of this year, there is a high number of occupations, mainly in the Gangnam area of ​​Seoul, and the demand for monthly rent is still high, so it is very likely that the rental price will continue to be weak
