In the years when we witnessed the rise of the shantytown reform movement, people frequently talked about the myths of demolition households getting rich in various places, which made people feel that the choice of reincarnation was very important. However, with the suspension of large-scale demolition operations, various parts of China have gradually clarified their official positions and pushed the renovation of old neighborhoods to a new stage according to policy adjustments. Recently, the official announcement of new regulations on the renovation of old urban communities has made old houses glow with a "second spring", and even triggered a wave of panic buying. Does your family benefit from this?
Before analyzing the problems existing in the old community, let me first introduce you to the background of this renovation. With the subsidence of large-scale demolition operations, China has recently officially launched a renovation plan for residential areas built before 2000, which is known as "old reform". The aim is to comprehensively improve the quality of the urban environment and the living standards of residents, according to national statistics, there are about 220,000 old residential areas in the country that meet the renovation standards, and more than 1960,000 old residential areas were successfully renovated.
According to the plan, the remaining communities that have not been renovated will be basically completed by 2025. In the process of renovation, it involves replacing obsolete facilities and equipment, reinforcing the corridor structure, installing elevators, adding parking spaces and leisure and entertainment areas, repainting the exterior walls, and configuring property management, which will undoubtedly help improve the safety and comfort of living in the old community. However, judging from the information feedback on the Internet, some old communities still caused some controversy and dissatisfaction among the masses after the transformation, mainly focusing on the following aspects:
1.The "face engineering" argument is widespread: some have questioned that the renovation of old neighborhoods is limited to exterior renovations, such as simple painting of exterior walls, without the necessary replacement or upgrading of old plumbing.
2.Controversy over the demolition of illegal buildings: Although this is one of the necessary means to keep the city clean and orderly, it also involves the interests of some property owners, thus stimulating controversy.
3.Parking dilemma after renovation: Although some old communities have solved the problem of insufficient green space through renovation, it has also led to a decrease in the number of parking spaces, which has further exacerbated the parking difficulties of residents, especially owners with private cars.
4.Decoration safety concerns: In order to improve the appearance, some old communities use inappropriate decoration materials, which may cause potential safety hazards and make the majority of residents feel worried.
5.The problem of property fees**: It is good to introduce property management companies to provide quality services to the community, but excessive property fees may also cause dissatisfaction among some property owners.
The emergence of these problems has undoubtedly caused a lot of inconvenience to the owners of old houses who were originally full of expectations. In order to solve these problems, many cities across the country have adjusted their policies in 2023 to improve the renovation project and better meet the needs of residents.
New policy adjustments
The good news is that the property rights of old houses have been around for 70 years since January 1, 1995. That is to say, if an old house has been used as a commercial house since that day**, its property rights are only 28 years at most. On the other hand, according to the newly promulgated Civil Code of the People's Republic of China, the tenure of the right to use residential land will be automatically renewed after the expiration of the term, and the ownership of the house will still belong to the owner himself, so there is no need to worry about problems such as "the house is too old".
In addition, I would like to share with you that from 2023, my country will start to implement a new regulation - "lowering the threshold, leading the way, and updating the model", which is mainly reflected in the following three aspects:
1.On the question of "lowering the threshold". Taking old high-rise buildings without elevators as an example, it is often extremely inconvenient for the elderly to travel. However, in the previous regulations, the consent of the residents of all floors could only move forward with the installation of elevators, which undoubtedly made this task much more difficult. Once there is a dispute between the residents on the first floor and the top floor, the entire installation of elevators will be deadlocked, which will affect the rights and interests of the residents of the entire building. From this point of view, the appropriate relaxation of restrictions on the installation of elevators will undoubtedly be conducive to the advancement of this livelihood project.
Nowadays, the installation of elevators no longer requires the unanimous approval of all owners, and only needs more than two-thirds of their consent to be implemented, which can undoubtedly better safeguard the interests of the majority of residents.
2.For the topic of "leading the world", we have the following three specific strategies to promote the modernization and upgrading of old communities to achieve greater results.
First of all, carefully formulate a detailed and complete renovation plan and plan to guide the direction and pace of the entire renovation project. Secondly, relevant laws, regulations and policies should be promulgated to make the renovation project have laws to follow and obtain sufficient legal support. Finally, we will go all out to provide sufficient financial support to ensure that the renovation project can be carried out smoothly.
On the whole, in addition to giving preferential policies and financial support, ** will also carry out strict supervision and management of the project to ensure that the old renovation project operates in accordance with the specifications and meets the high quality standards.
3.As for the "model renewal", we will introduce a new co-operation model and mechanism in the renovation of old residential areas to further enhance the work efficiency and quality of the renovation works. For example, it is necessary to attract social capital investment and introduce third-party institutions to participate in the supervision of renovation projects, so as to improve the information disclosure and project quality of the project.
Q03: What types of old houses are easy to snap up?
In the face of the acceleration of the renovation process, those old houses with a deep history will surely become the focus of the renovation project, which will help improve the living conditions of residents and improve the quality of housing. In this context, the following types of old houses will attract much attention.
1. An old community located in the center of the city
The old houses located in the heart of the city are surrounded by facilities such as schools, hospitals, shopping malls and supermarkets, which provide almost all the services needed. Given the unique geographical advantages of these old houses, it is no surprise that they are the first choice for renovation projects.
2. Old houses with distinctive regional characteristics
These houses have been built over the years and are a great feature of the city, making them popular with culture lovers and lifestyle seekers. In the process of upgrading, such properties will be protected and properly restored, so that their value in the process of urban renewal will be more significant.
3. Specific communities participating in the renovation plan
Once the old-fashioned villas are selected into the old reform list, they can really enjoy various subsidies and policy encouragement from the state or local government, which has aroused the favor of many rigid demand buyers and self-housing, because this kind of house is full of strong market atmosphere and is extremely cost-effective.
04.It starts next year
There are significant benefits for both groups of people
With the in-depth implementation of the old area renovation policy, in the near future, old houses are bound to become more sought-after. In particular, there are two groups of people who will benefit greatly from this policy:
The primary concern is the citizens who live in the old neighborhood.
After the renovation, the new facilities will not only greatly improve the comfort and convenience of citizens' lives, but also effectively eliminate potential safety hazards. This will undoubtedly greatly improve the quality of the living environment and living experience of the citizens.
Moreover, given the financial support and tax breaks provided by the local government, they do not need to bear the excessive financial burden, so that they can fully enjoy the many benefits of the renovation project.
Secondly, the same is true for those citizens who live in prefabricated houses.
These prefabricated houses are usually located on the edge of urban areas or in urban villages, and the main building materials used include cement slabs and steel structures. This type of house not only has poor ventilation and sound insulation, but also faces the problem of cold winter and hot summer, and may even have a certain degree of safety hazards. As a result, their living environment is not ideal.
However, once included in the old area redevelopment plan, the owners of prefabricated houses have the opportunity to receive monetary compensation or property exchange, which can further improve their living conditions. This is undoubtedly a huge boon for them.
In general, the renovation of old communities can not only achieve an overall improvement of the living environment, so that the general public can live and work in peace and contentment; More importantly, it will have a profound and positive impact on urban construction and social progress. We're looking forward to it.
