Reporter Kwon Aeri, a friendly economist on Friday, is also available. Reporter Kwon, the government discussed the possibility of further regulation of real estate. Maybe the price of the house is writhing again?

<Reporter>

Yes, the 12/16 countermeasure came out, and it's been half a year now. Later on, the Corona Economic Crisis, which was unpredictable at the time, struck.

In the meantime, the price of the house has clearly decreased in Gangnam, Seoul, and overall, the price of the house in Seoul has been prevented from rising sharply.

However, the upward trend of over 900 million won, which is the government's standard for high-end housing, and over 1.5 billion won, which is the standard for high-end housing, has generally stopped. The rising trend has actually been pointed out.

So, at the end of February, so-called tweezers regulations were added to Suwon, Anyang, and Uiwang once again, but then the movement of the upward trend to other regions next to it did not stop.

In other words, it can be said that the power of money to return to real estate at any time was still alive, but this week, the price of Seoul's house has turned upward in 10 weeks.

The downtrend stopped just last week and then turned upward. There is also a growing signal that more and more people are planning to buy a house in Seoul.

In the case of some popular areas centered on the metropolitan area and the central area, excluding Seoul, in fact, there are some areas where the upward trend is not too much to say, even if the situation is like Seoul until last year.

In the case of Gunpo, which is not a regulated area, the average price of homes increased by 9.4% in the past three months, and in places like Incheon Yeonsu, up 6.5%.

Corona 19, the game is the bottom, but the real estate market has a different atmosphere, right?

<Reporter>

Yes, it's definitely a tricky situation. It's clear that we have to turn our money in a serious blow to many areas of our economy, but on the one hand, it's not wrong to say that money overflows.

Even if we look at the stock market right now, even though our stocks have risen to near-corona levels, there are still over 45 trillion won in deposits.

In the first half of the year, if there was such a lot of money in a plunge in the stock market, some of that extra money is now moving back to real estate.

Interest rates are at a record low, so people with a bit of money don't have a place to invest otherwise, and if they're out of regulation, even if they get a lot of loans, the interest burden isn't so great.

In addition, there have been places where recent developments and developments have been announced or there has been a move to rebuild. Places like Jamsil, Yongsan, Mok-dong in Seoul, and Incheon or Daejeon are considered as such areas.

Lastly, on the tax side, the deadline to temporarily lower the transfer tax burden for multi-homed residents in the regulated area is until the end of this month.

In hopes of this, the sale of the products that came out by lowering the price has been over for some time, and the amendment to the law, which included strengthening the general real estate tax, has not been addressed in the 20th National Assembly.

It could be handled by the 21st National Assembly, but there are things that keep raising the standard when calculating the final tax, so even if the house price hasn't changed this year, and even if the amendment to the law hasn't passed, it will go up more than last year.

But in addition, those who expected to pass the final tax incentive within this year may think that the shock may be less than expected.

As these factors were added, the market began to reappear, fearing that house prices could skyrocket again.

So, the government has warned me once, right?

<Reporter>

Yes, yesterday, senior officials such as the deputy prime minister of the economy and the deputy secretary of the Ministry of Technology issued a message saying, "We are watching closely. Regulations can be tightened."

The policy direction to not neglect the increase in house prices is clear. But almost 20 real estate measures have been made so far.

Then, even in the expectation of economic recovery in the second half, there is a voice in the market that real estate measures need to be preemptive and more aggressive.

It means that we need to take effective measures to minimize side effects such as the balloon effect.

[Kim Kyu-Jung/Research Fellow, NH Investment & Securities Real Estate: The flow of short-term investment in mid- and low-priced houses is spreading. That's why it seems that a wider range of regulatory zones is needed now than the previous'tweezers regulation'. However, since there are already a lot of money released in the low interest rate liquid market in various regions, I am worried that the regulatory area setting may be a little late.]

Yes, if this is the case, real estate prices nationwide It can go up, but it's a bubble of course.
