“The president suggested more budget for rental housing and was instructed
“The designation of the regulated area is late… and regulates by identifying where prices will rise with big data”

Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport candidate Byeon Chang-heum announced the idea that the radius of the station area could be increased to 500m and the floor area ratio could be increased to 300% in order to expand the supply of housing in downtown Seoul. It has repeatedly emphasized candidate Byun’s belief that unconventional floor area ratio incentives should be given on the premise of redemption of development profits.

Candidate Byun said, “There is a lot of land that can be developed in Seoul, such as subway stations, low-rise residential areas, semi-industrial areas, etc.” “If there are only 307 subway stations and the area of ​​the station area is 500m (set), it is almost half the area of ​​Seoul.”

According to the current urban plan, it has indicated that it will expand the station area with a radius of 350m. Previously, the radius of the station was 250m, but the government temporarily extended the radius of the station area until 2022 in order to expand the supply of housing.

Candidate Byun said, “The density of the station area is only 160% now. If you are near the station, can I raise the floor area ratio by more than 300%?”

However, Candidate Byun said, “When doing this, you should have a social consensus on how to share the development profits. It is important to share and share the development profits socially, even if it is developed by the private sector rather than the public initiative.” said.

In addition, Candidate Byun responded to a query by Democratic Party member Chun Joon-ho and introduced the conversation he had with President Moon Jae-in at the recent construction event for the 1 million rental housing in Dongtan, Hwaseong. He suggested to President Moon that he should spend 15% more of his budget to build quality rental housing, and said he was instructed to do so.

Candidate Byun said, “The event that day was a place to promote the public by making a pledge to go to a high-quality lifelong housing (rental housing policy). Hwaseong Dongtan rental housing has well-built facilities such as daycare centers and indoor playgrounds. “The budget has been added by 15%.”

Candidate Byun said, “If you spend 15% more in the future, renting other areas can be such a great apartment, and the President also instructed,’If you become the Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, you should push forward strongly.” He said.

Candidate Byun responded to Democratic Party Congressman Park Young-soon’s criticism that’the speed of designating a regulated area is too slow to respond quickly to the market situation’, and also revealed that he will reform the method of designating it as a regulated area.

Candidate Byun said, “The current system has to see if the price has risen for more than 3 months when designating a regulated area, so it is designated too late, so it is ineffective.” “It’s like the’early warning’ system in stocks works. Likewise, we plan to build a system that analyzes big data statistics in real estate to accurately identify where prices will rise and where prices will rise, and apply appropriate regulations accordingly.”

The current method of selecting regulated areas such as areas subject to adjustment is a method of measuring the rate of increase in housing prices over the previous three months and deciding whether to designate them. Accordingly, it was pointed out that end-users are suffering damage after the house price has already risen due to speculative forces.

Candidate Byun said about the real estate supervisory organization promoted by the government, “We must ensure that there are no side effects such as abnormal transactions appearing in the real estate market and raising the prices of other houses.” “We need a systematic analysis system.”
