Rent concessions caught off guard
The reporter contacted Miss He, a tenant who has just graduated from Yuhang District, Hangzhou.
Last October, in Douban's rental team, I saw the rental information released by Hangzhou Shixiang Technology Company. Ms. He made an appointment to see the house according to the above phone number.
“The rent is very cheap, and they say that they don’t charge intermediary fees, and they don’t even need a deposit if they have a bachelor’s degree. They only need to pay half a year or pay the rent every year.” Ms. He told reporters that such preferential power is like a “pie from the sky” ".
So Ms. He didn't think much and signed a one-year contract, paid about 20,000 yuan in rent, and signed a one-year house lease contract with Shixiang Technology Company, which expired in October this year.
On August 29 this year, the neighbor next door told her that she knew that the company had gone.
The reporter learned that under the name of Miss He’s landlord, there are a total of 8 tenants, all of whom are rents paid by Xingxiang Technology, and they are all college students who have not graduated soon. The way to defraud the annual payment is also "the bachelor degree does not require a deposit. ".
Ms. He’s landlord stated that the company paid the rent to the landlord on the 10th of each month, and the August rent has been in arrears.
It was not until the end of August that some tenants and landlords learned that the company was closed through the circle of friends of the intermediary company employees.
On August 29, the company kicked all employees out of the group chat, and delayed payment of wages for half a month.
After the incident, 8 tenants including Ms. He and the landlord failed to reach an agreement on renewing the rent.
On September 3, the landlord changed the lock codes of all tenants.
Miss He and other tenants immediately called 110 to the police and called the community street.
After the police intervened in the investigation, they clearly informed the landlord that the tenant contract is valid and the landlord has no right to evict the tenant, but the tenant and the landlord still need to negotiate together.
Hangzhou takes a strong drug for long-term rental apartments
In recent years, the Hangzhou long-term rental apartment market has been active, and long-term rental apartments have experienced frequent thunderstorms.
According to incomplete statistics, Hangzhou has already had long-term rental apartment companies such as Lejia Apartment, Dingjia, Guochang, Woke Apartment, Deyu Technology, and China Select Real Estate, which have experienced capital chain crises.
It is understood that in November 2019, the Hangzhou Municipal Housing Security and Real Estate Administration issued the “Measures for the Supervision of Hangzhou Housing Leasing Funds”, requiring housing leasing companies to set up the only special deposit account for lease funds in banks. Freeze part of the funds in the special account as risk prevention and control funds.
However, due to the impact of the epidemic, in order to help housing leasing companies overcome difficulties and support the resumption of work and production, the implementation of the "Measures for the Supervision of Housing Leasing Funds in Hangzhou" was delayed.
Recently, the Hangzhou Municipal Housing Security and Real Estate Administration issued the “Notice on Further Implementing the Supervision and Management of Housing Leasing Funds”, which clearly requires that from August 31 this year, housing leasing companies pay rents to entrusted lessors and pay Rental funds collected by the lessee, deposits, and funds obtained from rental loans, etc., should all be paid into a special deposit account for lease funds for management.
Before September 30, 2020, the trusteeship housing leasing companies should pay the risk prevention and control funds for the corresponding housing for newly entrusted housing in 2020.
"From mid-September to late October, we will gradually announce the company’s fund supervision account status and the status of the payment of risk prevention and control funds in stages. Landlords and tenants can use the Hangzhou housing leasing supervision service platform to understand the company’s Whether the operation meets the requirements of the regulatory authorities. At the same time, landlords and tenants can also check whether their housing is included in the scope of capital supervision through the Hangzhou housing leasing supervision service platform." A staff member of the Rental Center of Hangzhou Housing and Housing Management Bureau told reporters .
Under supervision is expected to accelerate development
In recent years, long-term rental apartments, which are aimed at the pain points of house leasing, have won the favor of the market, tenants and policies.
From the perspective of the layout of housing companies, as of 2019, about 25% of the TOP100 housing companies directly or indirectly participate in long-term rental apartments, and more than 60% of the TOP30 housing companies are involved in long-term rental apartments.
Policies in the long-term rental sector have also continued to release benefits.
The "Several Opinions on Accelerating the Cultivation and Development of the Housing Leasing Market" issued by the State Council in 2016 clearly stated that "supporting qualified housing leasing companies to issue bonds and real estate securitization products."
Since then, real estate companies have promoted the development of the long-term rental apartment industry through financing through the issuance of bonds and other means.
However, some companies have distorted their good ideas. In the market, rents have changed into mortgages, long-term income and short-term payments, etc.
In the absence of a normal profit model, many companies have aggressively expanded, resulting in constant "thunder" in the field of long-term rental apartments.
In order to promote the healthy development of long-term rental apartments, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development recently issued the "Regulations on Housing Leasing (Draft for Comment)", which particularly emphasized that housing leasing companies have to pay more rents to housing owners than to collect rents from lessees, and the period of collecting rents from lessees is longer than payment. For high-risk business activities such as the rent cycle of housing rights holders, real estate management and other departments shall include them in the list of abnormal business operations, and strengthen the supervision of operating conditions such as rent and deposit use.
According to industry insiders, the long-term rental apartment industry is about to face the strongest supervision and will also usher in development opportunities.
"Regulation is expected to end all kinds of chaos in the industry, which creates a better environment for normal business enterprises."
