  Zhang Bin, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and deputy director of the Institute of World Economics and Politics of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told reporters from China News Agency that the living conditions of low- and middle-income groups in some cities are poor, and migrant workers who go out to work cannot "live" in cities where they live and work , The family has been separated in many places for a long time, "This is a shortcoming in the key livelihood areas that our country needs to make up for at present."

  Ni Hong, minister of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of China, previously pointed out that new citizens and young people often have short working years, relatively low income, and weak ability to buy houses and pay rent. The practical problems of "renting a house" and "not renting a house".

  In fact, Chinese officials are already taking action to help new citizens "live and live".

Data show that in 2021 and 2022, 3.3 million units (units) of indemnificatory rental housing will be raised across the country, which can solve the housing difficulties of nearly 10 million new citizens and young people.

  Yang Decai, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and a professor at the Business School of Nanjing University, pointed out that the survey data in 2021 showed that 70% of new citizens and young people in big cities rely on renting to solve their housing problems, but some new citizens have relatively poor living conditions, especially Group rental housing is still common in coastal areas. Due to the existing restrictive regulations such as household registration and social security, it is difficult for most new citizens to meet the housing security qualification requirements stipulated by the state, provinces and cities.

  To better realize the "safe housing" of new citizens, it is necessary to strengthen policy design and institutional reform.

Yang Decai suggested that according to the housing conditions and needs of different groups such as low- and middle-income families, newly employed workers, and migrant workers in stable employment, a development plan for housing security construction can be compiled.

  Financial means can also contribute to the "settled housing" of new citizens.

Zhang Bin proposed that the establishment of a housing security fund for new citizens can not only help resolve developers' accumulated assets and industry asset restructuring, but also provide affordable housing for migrant workers and low- and middle-income groups.

  In his view, the New Citizen Housing Security Fund is a supplement to the existing housing provident fund policy, highlighting the policy protection for low- and middle-income groups not included in the existing housing security system, and at the same time playing a role in defusing the current real estate market risks and stimulating real estate development. The role of market vitality and boosting domestic demand.

This kind of policy-oriented housing financial guarantee institutions generally exists in developed countries.

  Yang Decai also said that a stable and diversified investment and financing mechanism should be established, the supply of affordable rental housing should be expanded, and a new citizen provident fund payment and deposit management mechanism should be established. Through loan repayment ability assessment and introduction of loan guarantees, etc., a flexible use of provident fund deposits should be established. .

  The People's Bank of China and the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission recently issued a document stating that the development of the housing leasing financial market should be regulated, credit support should be increased, and diversified investment and financing channels should be broadened.

  Chai Qiang, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and president of the China Institute of Real Estate Appraisers and Real Estate Brokers, mentioned to reporters from China News Agency that accelerating the cultivation and development of the housing rental market is the key to solving the housing problems of new citizens and promoting the stable and healthy development of the real estate market. Important handles and key measures.

  He further stated that rent is not only related to the sustainable development of housing rental companies, but also an important part of stabilizing the rental relationship. The government pays close attention to it and the public cares most.

Therefore, whether it is affordable rental housing or market rental housing, it is very important to maintain a reasonable and stable rent level.

  Chai Qiang said that the housing rental industry should have a fair and reasonable pricing adjustment mechanism, and there should be a certain limit on the increase.

When the supply of rental housing is in short supply and the market is booming due to seasonal and other factors, housing leasing companies should bravely assume industry responsibilities, stabilize rents, control increases, and escort the long-term development of the industry.
