In order to stabilize the house price, I ordered more burden on people with multiple houses and increased supply of housing. For more information, we will connect reporters to the Blue House.

Yes, President Moon Jae-in received an emergency report from the Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, Kim Hyun-mi, almost two hours from 4 pm today.

This is because the house price continues to rise even after the recent announcement of the June 17 real estate measures, and the controversy that the real estate policy has not been successful has become serious.

President Moon ordered four things, the Blue House said.

First, he said, "We must definitely reduce the burden on real consumers, first-time buyers, and renters."

To this end, they instructed them to consider ways to increase the amount of special supplies for the first time in their lives for youth and newlyweds, and to ease the tax burden.

It also clarified its policy to regulate speculative purchases, saying, "Strengthen the burden on speculative homeowners like multi-homeowners."

Along with that, the president said to increase the supply of housing, and mentioned the metropolitan area.

Yes, President Moon first said, "The government has supplied 780,000 units, a significant amount of supplies so far, but there is a perception that it is insufficient."

He also instructed him to find a way to increase the amount of pre-subscription to the new city in the third phase, which will take effect next year.

President Moon then said to Minister Kim, "It is important to be willing to get the house price." If you need a supplement, don't hesitate to take further measures at any time.

But did you not give the directive to President Moon Jae-in to revise the comprehensive real estate tax today prior to the report?

<Reporter>

Yes, President Moon gave the order before today's report.

"Promote amendments to the Customs Tax Act as the top legislative task of the 21st National Assembly of the government."

Among the real estate measures announced on December 16 last year, the Blue House revised bill was ordered to take priority over the 20th National Assembly because it was dismissed by the 20th National Assembly, the Blue House explained.
