The State Council "Housing Project" Conference: Making Important Arrangements for Urban Renewal

Great achievements have been made in housing construction, historic achievements have been made in urban construction, great changes have taken place in rural areas, and the role of the pillar industry of the construction industry has been continuously enhanced ... At the press conference held on August 3 1 with the theme of "Strive to achieve a place for everyone", Wang, Minister of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, introduced the development of housing and urban-rural construction in China.

How to achieve the clear goal of "everyone lives in one place"? This highly regarded meeting released many important signals: to start a new journey, we should speed up the improvement of the housing system, steadily implement the long-term real estate mechanism, fully implement the urban renewal action and rural construction action, and vigorously promote the transformation and upgrading of the construction industry. ...

Clear goals and precise policies and measures. "We must strive to achieve high-quality development of housing and urban and rural construction, so that more and more people can benefit from reform and development, and promote more obvious and substantial progress between * * * and prosperity." Wang said to him.

The largest housing security system in the world has been built.

Wang introduced the development of housing and urban and rural construction in China from three aspects:

First, great achievements have been made in housing construction, and the largest housing security system in the world has been built. In 20 19, the per capita housing construction area of urban residents in China reached 39.8 square meters, and that of rural residents reached 48.9 square meters. More than 80 million sets of affordable housing and sheds have been built, helping more than 200 million people in need to improve their housing conditions. Low-income and low-income families with housing difficulties have basically achieved all coverage, and the housing conditions of lower-middle-income families have been effectively improved.

Second, historic achievements have been made in urban construction. In 2020, the urbanization rate of permanent residents in China will reach 63.89%, the number of cities will reach 687, and the urban built-up area will reach 6 1 10,000 square kilometers. In 20 19, China's urban GDP and fixed assets investment accounted for nearly 90% of the country.

Third, the rural landscape has undergone tremendous changes, which has historically solved the housing security problem of the rural poor. Since the full implementation of the renovation of dilapidated houses in rural areas, 7.9 million households and 25.68 million poor people have been renovated; Simultaneously support10.75 million rural low-income households, and support poor groups such as poor people and poor families of disabled people to transform dangerous houses; There are 23.465438 million+6,000 poverty-stricken households in the country who have set up files to ensure housing safety.

Fourth, the role of the pillar industry of the construction industry has been continuously enhanced, moving from a building power to a building power. In 2020, the added value of the construction industry will account for 7.2% of the regional GDP, providing more than 50 million jobs for the whole society. The level of engineering design and construction has been significantly improved, and a number of world-class landmark major projects such as Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and Beijing Daxing International Airport have been completed one after another.

In this regard, Yan Yuejin, research director of the think tank center of Yiju Research Institute, said in an interview with People's Daily: "The policy of this meeting is clear, which is different from the institutional reform from the market perspective in the past. Whether the housing system reform is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, in addition to the traditional goal of' stable and healthy development of real estate', it is also important to let the reform results benefit the whole people and promote prosperity. "

Wang introduced that the new era and new stage have put forward new requirements for the development of housing and urban and rural construction, and housing and urban and rural construction are facing new problems and challenges. For example, the housing contradiction has changed from total shortage to structural supply shortage; Urban development has shifted from large-scale incremental construction to both stock upgrading and incremental structural adjustment.

Promote the solution of housing problems for new citizens and young people.

In the second half of the year, increasing the supply of affordable rental housing and speeding up the improvement of the housing security system were frequently mentioned again, reaching an unprecedented height.

"The housing problem of new citizens and young people is a prominent problem with the development of urbanization." Ni Hong, Vice Minister of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, said.

Ni Hong said that because new citizens and young people have relatively short working years and relatively low incomes, their ability to buy houses and pay rent is relatively weak. "According to relevant surveys, at present, 70% of new citizens and young people in big cities rely on renting houses to solve their housing problems. However, the location of affordable housing is far away, and the rent with better location is more expensive, which has become a practical difficulty for new citizens and young people to afford and rent bad houses. "

In this regard, the recently issued Opinions of the General Office of the State Council on Accelerating the Development of Affordable Rental Housing put forward five basic systems and six supporting policies, including clarifying the security standards according to the characteristics of new citizens, young people and other groups, giving priority to ensuring small-sized housing with a construction area of not more than 70 square meters, and the rent is lower than that of market rental housing with the same location and quality.

"Accelerating the improvement of the housing security system is an important measure to improve the basic housing needs of the people." Wang said that in recent years, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development has mainly done three things:

First, accelerate the establishment of a housing security system with public rental housing, affordable rental housing and * * * property housing as the main body. Public rental housing mainly solves the housing problem of urban housing and families with "double difficulties" in income. Affordable rental housing focuses on solving the housing problem of net population inflow to key cities, especially urban new citizens and young people. * * * Property houses mainly help urban residents who have certain economic strength and can't afford to buy houses to improve their living conditions.

Second, a relatively complete housing security policy and management system has been established. It mainly includes two aspects: one is the supporting policies of finance, taxation, finance and land, and the other is the access, use, withdrawal and operation management mechanism.

Third, large-scale affordable housing has been built. From the State Council's decision to deepen the reform of urban housing system to 2007, more than 654.38 million sets of affordable housing such as low-rent housing and affordable housing were built nationwide. Since the large-scale implementation of affordable housing projects in 2008, more than 78 million sets of affordable housing and shed-converted resettlement houses have been started nationwide, and more than 22 million needy people have received housing subsidies.

Wang said that during the Tenth Five-Year Plan period, we will focus on the development of affordable rental housing, further improve the housing security system, increase the supply of affordable housing, and strive to achieve the goal of all people living and living.

Yu Xiaofen, vice president of Zhejiang University of Technology, said that China attaches great importance to stimulating the vitality of market players through preferential policies, promoting the transformation of housing security subject from government-led to joint participation of government, enterprises and social forces, and the transformation of housing security object from registered residents to permanent residents. "A country with a huge population of 654.38+04 billion is driving on the road of urbanization and modernization at a speed exceeding expectations, and there is no similar experience to learn from. It is a miracle in the world to achieve such housing security achievements. " Yan said.

Huang Hui, senior analyst of RealData, said that the housing demand of ordinary people has been initially guaranteed, and the housing market in China will also usher in a new wave of digitalization, industrialization, quality, urbanization and institutionalization of housing services. In the future, with the more abundant housing supply level and perfect system in China, people's living environment is expected to be further improved.

China's real estate market generally maintained a stable operation.

The basis of housing's return to residential property lies in "living without speculation", which has gradually become the core logic of China's real estate market regulation since it was first put forward by the Central Economic Work Conference at the end of 20 16.

Ni Hong, Vice Minister of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, said that after more than two years' practice, China's real estate market has generally maintained a stable operation, which fully shows that the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on the long-term real estate mechanism are accurate and effective. "In the next step, we will continue to fully implement the long-term mechanism of the real estate market, stabilize land prices, stabilize housing prices, stabilize expectations, and promote the stable and healthy development of the real estate market."

The reporter found out that since the beginning of this year, the central and local governments have always adhered to the positioning of "housing and not speculating", the regulation of the real estate market has been comprehensively upgraded, and the regulation policies of the real estate market have been "patched" and the loopholes in regulation have been strictly blocked.

Judging from the regulation of urban distribution, the recent regulation of urban transition to the third and fourth lines; Judging from the means of regulation and control, the regulatory framework is basically stable, supplemented by a small number of new clauses, and the regulatory policies are mainly carried out in the form of "upgrading" and "patching", aiming at curbing speculative real estate speculation and implementing the "three stability" goals; Judging from the trend of regulation and control, this year, a number of policies have been adopted, such as "source of funds", "linkage of house prices and land prices" and "restriction of purchases", to strengthen regulation and control according to the results.

Ni Hong introduced that in recent years, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development has focused on three aspects: stabilizing land prices, stabilizing housing prices and stabilizing expectations:

First, always adhere to the positioning that houses are used for living, not for speculation, which is the fundamental follow-up to do a good job in the regulation of the real estate market. Taking this as a starting point, we will continue to tighten the cage of the real estate market regulation system, especially to prevent "speculation" and effectively prevent and resolve market risks.

The second is to implement the main responsibility of the city. Urge the city government not to use real estate as a short-term means to stimulate the economy, and take measures to promote the stable and healthy development of the real estate market.

The third is to establish a new linkage mechanism of people, housing, land and money. We should proceed from reality, and we should not "cut across the board" because of the city's policy and local conditions. At the same time, a new mechanism of monitoring, early warning, evaluation and assessment has been established, and monthly monitoring, quarterly evaluation and annual assessment have been carried out regularly to strengthen the supervision of the real estate market and rectify the order of the real estate market.

In Yan Yuejin's view, the new problems and challenges of real estate have changed. This meeting first put forward the four-in-one regulation content of "house, land and money". From a series of recent regulation, we can really feel the changes brought about by the four-in-one regulation.

Promoting urban renewal with the transformation of old residential areas as the starting point

Since the beginning of this year, all parts of the country have continued to make efforts in the renovation of old communities, encouraging social capital to actively participate in the renovation of old communities.

Yan Huang, Vice Minister of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, revealed that during the Tenth Five-Year Plan period, China will basically complete the renovation of 265,438+9,000 old residential areas completed by the end of 2000.

Yan Huang introduced that from 20 19 to 2020, 59,000 old urban communities will be built and renovated nationwide, benefiting10.88 million households. This year, it is planned to renovate 53,000 old residential areas, involving more than 9 million residents. By the end of July, 42,200 residential quarters had been started, involving 7.64 million households, and 78.2% of the annual target had been achieved.

From the actual effect, the implementation of the transformation of old urban residential areas has improved the supporting infrastructure such as water circuits and gas communication, increased public service facilities such as pension, child care and convenience stores according to local conditions, eliminated a large number of security risks, and improved the living conditions and living environment of residents in old residential areas.

In the next stage, the housing and urban-rural construction department will focus on the people's "urgent difficulties and worries" and increase efforts in promoting the installation of elevators in qualified buildings and improving the property management of old residential areas.

In addition, in response to the "demolition restriction order" issued recently, Yan Huang said that the connotation of urban renewal should be to promote urban structure optimization, functional improvement and quality improvement, and draw an important bottom line for urban renewal.

At the beginning of August this year, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development publicly solicited opinions on the Notice on Preventing Demolition and Construction in the Implementation of Urban Renewal (Draft for Comment) (hereinafter referred to as the Draft for Comment), demanding strict control of demolition and construction, and insisting on paying equal attention to both retention and demolition.

Li Yu Jia, chief researcher of Guangdong Housing Policy Research Center, believes that the core content of the Opinion Draft is to bid farewell to demolition and construction completely and turn to "reservation-utilization-promotion". "This also means that the old reform bid farewell to the demolition and construction of the wind and fire, and moved towards the urban renewal like a breeze."

Li believes that bidding farewell to urban demolition and construction is essentially bidding farewell to real estate dependence and consolidating "no speculation in housing". "Since then, the demand in passive house caused by demolition has surged, and the rise in housing prices and rents caused by planning concepts and speculation has disappeared."

"The urban renewal work has just started and is still in the process of exploration." Yan Huang said that in the next step, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development will promote urban renewal pilot projects, explore ways and means of urban renewal, launch a number of demonstration projects, and actively, steadily and orderly implement urban renewal actions.
