Core Viewpoints - The core issue is the lack of transparency in the shared area (公摊面积) of housing, which has led to widespread dissatisfaction among homebuyers [4][36] - The shift to selling housing based on the internal area (套内面积) is aimed at increasing transparency and reducing disputes, thereby boosting buyer confidence [6][27] - This change is part of broader efforts to stabilize the real estate market and improve housing quality [7][10] Housing Sales and Pricing - Selling housing based on the internal area does not eliminate the shared area but changes the pricing method, making it clearer for buyers [5][29][40] - The total housing price remains unchanged, as the shared area still exists and is part of the overall cost [30] - This pricing method is expected to become more widespread, with cities like Hengyang and Zhangjiakou already implementing it [32][33] Impact on Housing Quality and Buyer Rights - Reducing the shared area should be balanced with improving housing quality, as excessively low shared areas can negatively impact living conditions [9][25] - The new pricing method ensures that buyers get what they pay for, reducing discrepancies between sample rooms and actual delivered homes [26][27] - Developers may be incentivized to increase the internal area ratio (得房率) to attract buyers [45] Regulatory and Market Implications - Experts emphasize the need for clearer regulations on what constitutes the shared area and stronger oversight to prevent developers from exploiting loopholes [15][39][58] - The policy is seen as a tool to boost market confidence and improve the transparency of the real estate industry [21][22][53] - The shift to internal area pricing may also push property management companies to improve their services, as the shared area becomes a more visible part of the property [14][54] Public Perception and Misconceptions - There is a common misconception that selling housing based on the internal area means the shared area is eliminated, which is not the case [3][40] - Buyers are primarily concerned about the lack of transparency in the shared area, rather than its existence [28][36] - The policy is expected to address these concerns by making the shared area more transparent and understandable for buyers [17][48] Future Trends and Policy Innovations - The introduction of "non-countable area" (不计容面积) policies in some cities aims to reduce the shared area and increase the internal area ratio [56][57] - The policy is part of broader innovations in real estate supply management, focusing on improving transparency and meeting buyer needs [60] - The real estate industry is expected to become more standardized and buyer-friendly as these policies are implemented [22][53]
