> The first batch of affordable housing in Guangzhou sold 234 units on the first day this year. Reported by Yang Qiwei, our special reporter in Guangzhou) On September 17, 2011, the first batch of affordable housing in Guangzhou this year began to be purchased on-site. On the first day, a total of 234 households subscribed to the "favorite housing", and 16 households gave up the purchase. The first batch of 3,824 affordable housing units launched in Guangzhou this year are mainly concentrated in Guangni Garden and Anxia Garden, with 120 units scattered in six mature communities. This batch of affordable housing is mainly small and medium-sized units with two bedrooms and one living room. Except for sporadic housing, the other areas are less than 70 square meters, and the base price is 2,470 to 445 yuan/square meter. The highest total price of a house is about 300,000 yuan, and the lowest is about 200,000 yuan. On the morning of September 17, hundreds of eligible citizens from families with housing difficulties came to line up to subscribe. Many people crowded anxiously in front of the housing information board in the sales center, vying to choose a house. The scene was quite heated. Ms. Zeng, who was ranked No. 77, was so excited that she came directly to choose a house without even looking at the model house. She chose a three-bedroom, one-living house located in Guangniu Garden with a construction area of ​​about 68 square meters, and paid a deposit of 10,000 yuan on the spot. "I have been waiting for three years and am impatient," she said. Zhou Zhihui, a 50-year-old disabled person in a wheelchair who was in the subscription queue, particularly attracted attention. He chose an affordable apartment in Jude Garden because of its proximity to the subway and convenient transportation. "The total price of my affordable house is 460,000 yuan, and the down payment is 138,000 yuan. I can barely make it through borrowing from relatives and friends, but the monthly payment is very difficult, which almost covers all of my monthly income." Zhou Zhihui hoped to find a bank to provide a more favorable interest rate, but he consulted several banks on the spot, and the answers he received were that there was no discount or no lower interest rate. "I can only bite the bullet and solve the monthly payment problem." Like Zhou Zhihui, many low-income families with housing difficulties are looking forward to lower down payment ratios and higher interest rate discounts when purchasing affordable housing. In just one day, 234 households have selected their "favorite housing" and realized their dream of housing in peace. However, 16 residents gave up their subscription rights. It is reported that if a total of three abandoned purchases are made, the applicant's qualifications for home purchase will be cancelled.
