Chapter 489 Housing Subsidy, Starting to Sell Houses
Many people with ideas came to Xichun County to express their desire to join the Xichun Square project.
Although it will take a considerable amount of time for the approval to be granted, this is the first landmark in the inland, western, and southwestern regions.
Such a large project will definitely be approved by Jincheng City and Southwest Province.
Jincheng City may also want to build a similar landmark in the urban area, but the urban area is not as convenient as Xichun County.
After all, there isn’t a large open space in the city, but there is in Xichun County.
At the same time, it should also be a plan to have Xichun County set up a model to see how effective it is.
If it works well, we'll set one up in the city center too.
At that time, Xichun Square will truly become a landmark in Southwest China.
If we don't act soon, we might not even get a sip of soup.
But when they arrived in Xichun County and expressed their intentions, they were dumbfounded.
Xichun County does not accept small-scale investment in the Xichun Plaza project, nor does it want small engineering companies or even construction teams to participate.
Instead, they were allowed to participate in the development of Xichun New City.
After all, Xichun Plaza is no ordinary project.
Construction companies should be selected more rigorously and carefully considered.
For such large-scale and super-tall buildings, the construction companies must be the best and most capable.
This is the only way to ensure the quality and progress of the project.
If the work is handed over to small construction companies and teams, the quality and schedule cannot be guaranteed.
Ultimately, what might result is a large, extremely dangerous building with serious quality problems, or even an unfinished project.
As for funding, without several hundred million, you can forget about it.
Xichun County cannot attract too many shareholders.
Small construction companies and teams had no part in the Xichun Plaza project, and even medium-sized construction companies could only do some peripheral work.
The fact that so many people came shows that they have high hopes for Xichun County.
Therefore, Qi Tongwei proposed that they participate in the development of the new city so that it could expand rapidly and take shape as soon as possible.
The textile city has already started recruiting workers, and a total of 3 employees are needed.
Each household in the industrial park and new town relocation area will receive one quota, totaling 1 people.
Of the remaining 2 people, 1000 are in the county seat and 1000 are in each of the 19 townships.
As for the employment needs of other county-owned enterprises and the 337 enterprises introduced by Pengcheng, in the early stages, a portion of the positions will be allocated to the county seat, and the remainder will be distributed equally among the townships.
For subsequent staffing needs, companies are free to recruit as they see fit.
After all, people from not only this county, but also those from neighboring counties and even neighboring cities come to the industrial park to work.
In the short term, nearly 4 people will come to the city to work, and their food, drink and other needs will bring about significant economic development.
This is equivalent to having the population of an additional county.
To boost sales of commercial housing, Qi Tongwei plans to provide housing subsidies.
For migrant workers in county towns and rural areas who are going to work in cities, a subsidy of 5000 yuan will be given for their first home purchase, which can be used to offset the down payment.
This would greatly reduce the down payment burden for homebuyers, allowing many to grit their teeth and scrape together enough money to buy a house.
Of course, employees who moved from Shenzhen with their companies are not eligible for this subsidy.
Because the down payment for their homes was initially paid by the company, and then the county government returned the down payment to the company in batches.
Their down payment was actually paid by the county government.
Qi Tongwei then instructed the city investment company to begin construction of the second and third phases of commercial housing and the second phase of housing for retired employees of Pengcheng Enterprises.
The third phase of the residential buildings will not be redesigned; the design of the second phase will be used directly, since the land area is the same, which will facilitate construction.
In this way, in addition to the three communities of affordable housing, the first phase of commercial housing, and the first phase of Pengcheng Enterprise old employee housing, as well as one community developed by a private enterprise, there are three more communities under construction.
The three residential complexes comprise a total of 8068 units, with a total subsidy of 4034 million yuan.
Given the county's situation, it can barely afford it.
In this way, the urban investment company can recover some funds earlier through pre-sales and alleviate its financial pressure.
There's absolutely no need to worry about ordinary people not buying.
After all, this was developed by the city investment company, which is equivalent to development by the county government.
Then, Qi Tongwei instructed his office and the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau to formulate detailed policies, which were then approved at a county government meeting as part of the housing subsidy policy.
Next, it was submitted to the Standing Committee for study and passed.
After all, a new city can't be built without people.
The county has now built all the public buildings in a unified manner. Once the residential area is completed, these public buildings will be ready for use.
When that time comes, people will have bought houses and their lives will be more convenient.
Then, the county began issuing documents and posting notices at the entrances of county and township governments, work units, and schools.
They posted notices at bus stations and on buses, hung banners at village entrances and alleyways, and advertised on the county television station.
This instantly sparked heated discussions throughout the county.
The news of the county's large-scale development and construction of the new town had already spread far and wide, and was known to almost everyone.
But everyone thinks that not many people will actually buy it.
Although the county's industrial park is under construction and continuously attracting enterprises, it is also recruiting a large number of workers recently.
But most of the people who come to the city to work are from poor families. How can they afford a house if they don't work for a year or two?
After all, even the cheapest house costs 4 yuan, and the mortgage is 1.2 yuan. How can an ordinary family afford to pay tens of thousands of yuan?
Now, the county is subsidizing 5000 yuan per unit, which reduces the down payment burden by more than one-third. By piecing together the money, it's actually possible to buy a unit.
The city investment company's fast renovation sales department arranged sales staff to conduct sales and notified five banks in the county to send people over to process mortgage procedures on-site.
At the beginning, there weren't many people in the sales department.
But soon after, guests arrived to inquire about the county's subsidies.
The sales staff told them that it was true, and that the county had already used the tax revenue from September to prioritize housing subsidies.
It's not that they don't believe in the policies, but rather that these policies are implemented slowly.
Qi Tongwei instructed the Finance Bureau to allocate 1000 million yuan and assign personnel to the sales department to distribute subsidies to homebuyers on-site.
They also had the county television station follow up on the story daily and broadcast it in local news.
1000 million is enough to subsidize 2000 houses. This should allow the public to see the authenticity of the policy and the efficiency of the subsidies.
It allows people with some money to scrape together the down payment.
Soon, the first person to buy a house appeared; he bought a 52-square-meter two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment.
The total price was 3.9 yuan, with a down payment of 1.17 yuan. The county finance bureau paid 5000 yuan on the spot, so he only paid 6700 yuan himself.
The county television station gave it prominent coverage.
After the first one, the second and third followed. They also bought a 52㎡ two-bedroom apartment, and the Finance Bureau paid them a housing subsidy of 5000 yuan on the spot.
The television station continued to give it prominent coverage.
The city investment company sells according to the development sequence, so it sells the first phase of commercial housing first.
Once someone took the lead, many others followed suit, paying money to buy houses, and the county finance bureau immediately paid 5000 yuan for them.
In just one week, 100 units of the 52㎡ two-bedroom apartment and 10 units of the 72㎡ three-bedroom apartment in the first phase of the residential project were sold.
