[경제]The government is going all-out on supply… “Remove price and area restrictions”

Government seeks reversal by easing regulations on officetel and sale prices
“Officetel will expand, but demand distribution is limited”
“We will devise a plan to solve the monthly rent crisis by the end of the year”

[앵커]

The government has come up with another measure to solve the problem of house prices that are rarely caught.

It was decided to ease the regulations to speed up the supply, but reporter Jo Tae-hyun pointed out what kind of content it would contain and whether it would have any effect.

House prices are soaring with the momentum to break through the ceiling, and the biggest cause is, of course, a lack of supply.

But as housing supply seldom slowed down, the government pulled out a deregulation card this time around.

The first is the easing of regulations related to officetels.

The plan is to increase the supply of residential officetels by improving the floor heating standards.

In addition, we decided to expand the size of urban living houses.

Although the plan is to utilize officetels that have a faster supply rate than apartments, there are also concerns about side effects.

In the meantime, we also accepted the point that excessive price regulation has become an obstacle to housing supply.

We decided to change the current method of averaging all businesses when calculating the surrounding market price to applying a selection of similar businesses based on size and brand value.

It was also decided to materialize the review criteria for the price ceiling system.

Although the demand from the private sector was accepted, it is evaluated that the sale price will eventually rise considering the recent surge in house prices.

In addition, the government is planning to come up with solutions by the end of the year, such as the increasingly severe jeonse and monthly rent problems and the so-called ‘double price’ problem in the jeonse market.

However, it is evaluated that it is uncertain whether effective countermeasures will be available given the ‘3rd Law on Leases’ that triggered this situation is in good health.
