Seoul home prices have turned down in 10 months. In Gangnam, the Gangbuk area, where rapid sales came out and was highly priced, is also rapidly sinking.

Reporter Han Se-hyun looked at the flow in detail.

This apartment complex in Nowon-gu, Seoul, sold 39 square meters earlier this month for 243 million won.

This is about 12% lower than the average real transaction price last month.

A similar phenomenon occurred in this apartment complex in Dobong-gu.

The 80㎡ model was recently traded for more than 40 million won lower than last month.

[Lee Hyo-soon / Nowon-gu, Seoul Authorized Broker: The house price has been rising a lot now, now. So, 'Isn't this really a vertex' so buyers don't buy it easily.]

The price of homes in Seoul's Gangnam area has been falling, and the rate of increase in the so-called 'Maseongseong' price has also been lowered.

Here, even in the 'Nodo River' region, where the recent increase in house prices has been noticeable, the rise has slowed for three weeks in a row.

Some private surveys have shown that home prices in Seoul have fallen after 10 months.

In particular, the Seoul Apartment Buying Index fell to 81.1, below the baseline of 100.

This means that more people are trying to sell their homes than they want to buy.

[Dr. Dr. Deok-Rye Kim / Head of Housing Research Division, Housing Industry Research Institute: If the price does not rise compared to the previous month, if the sudden sale is traded at a price slightly lower than the previous month, the downtrend indicators may appear.

It is predicted that the stable downward trend in home prices will begin in earnest, following a strong loan regulation, investigation of the source of housing purchases, an increase in the holding tax burden caused by the rise in the public price, and fears of a contraction in the economy.
