Is the donated area considered property rights area? Uncover the truth about gift area

When developers sell houses, they often put up slogans such as: "One bedroom becomes three bedrooms, two bedrooms become four bedrooms", "All bay windows, terraces and air-conditioning areas are given away". The editor reminds you that you must carefully investigate when encountering such a situation. If the free area is really so appropriate, then why doesn't the developer just lower the price and enjoy it? Next, let’s share the secrets of “gift area”.

1. The free area does not belong to the property area

The larger the free area, the higher the house purchase rate in the minds of home buyers, but the editor is here to tell you: the free area does not Belongs to property area. Developers usually do not include the free area in the home purchase contract. If the home buyer encounters the problem of "shrinking" of the free area after handing over the house, since there is no contract restriction, he is likely to lose the basis for arguing with the developer.

2. The donated area is not a benefit to the developer, but a benefit from the state.

"Stealing area" is of course not really stealing. First of all, I want to tell you the truth. The free area is not a discount given to you by the developer, but has been stipulated by the state.

The current building design regulations stipulate:

(1) The entrance garden and the unenclosed balcony count as half the area; the balcony is completely free;

(2) The net height of the basement is 2.1 meters or more, and the area is not counted if it is less than 2.1 meters;

(3) There are two types of bay windows: bay windows and floor-to-ceiling bay windows. Bay windows are not floor-to-ceiling. , does not count as area. The net height of floor-to-ceiling bay windows is counted as area if it is higher than 2.1 meters, and the area is not counted if it is lower than 2.1 meters;

(4) The area is counted if the net height of the attic is over 2.1 meters, and the area is not counted if it is less than 2.1 meters. .

So, in fact, this is what you deserve. Developers just use these selling points to increase project sales.

In addition, developers often promise top-floor terraces to top-floor owners, basement space to bottom-floor owners, etc. In fact, according to the provisions of the Property Law, this part of the space should belong to all the owners of the building, not the developer. As long as other owners raise objections, the owner who receives the "gift" cannot enjoy the exclusive benefits. . Everyone knows that houses on the top and bottom floors are the hardest to sell, but with these additional conditions, it is inevitable that there will be no hesitation.

3. It is good to increase the area, but practicality is the most important thing

Although it is good to give away area, it still depends on whether it is practical. Some "gift areas" such as entrance gardens often have problems such as dim light, small size and difficulty in use, troublesome decoration, and easy exposure to rain and moisture. In addition, whether entrance gardens, elevated balconies, terraces, etc. can be enclosed, It depends on whether the urban construction and other functional departments approve it, otherwise it may become an illegal building and be ordered to be demolished.
