The government disclosed the selection of four sites for the first batch of simple public housing projects. The outside world was most concerned that the construction cost of simple public housing is more expensive than public housing. However, after checking government data, it was found that the construction cost of simple public housing units was not only more expensive than public housing. It is about 17% more expensive than HOS housing, which should be of higher quality such as building materials, and simple public housing has become "simple and most expensive".
According to government documents, the total construction and design cost of simple public housing is 26.7 billion yuan. Based on the target of building 30,000 units, it is estimated that the average cost per room is as high as 890,000 yuan, which is more expensive than public housing at 650,000 yuan, and is also about 760,000 High The budget for the "cost price" of simple public housing has to reach 26.7 billion yuan. The government documents have not disclosed in detail. "Hong Kong 01" is inquiring about it from the Housing Bureau.
The Local Research Institute estimated that simple public housing still requires piling work, which may be the culprit for driving up the cost. The cost and procedures of simple public housing are almost the same as traditional public housing (more expensive than HOS), but the residence period is only 5 In the next few years, it may be necessary to demolish "abandoned housing" which is extremely uneconomical, and "you can't afford it". It is better to use these lands for the construction of permanent traditional public housing.
The cost of simple public housing design, construction engineering and government administrative manpower is 32.09 billion yuan, and the cost of design and construction alone is 26.79 billion yuan. If divided by the estimated 30,000 units provided by the government, the cost is as high as 890,000 yuan.
According to the Housing Authority's public housing and HOS construction cost budget and related data disclosed at the beginning of this year, the current construction cost of each public housing unit is about 650,000 yuan, an increase of 40,000 yuan from the previous year, and the HOS construction cost is 760,000 yuan, a drop of 140,000 yuan or nearly 16% from the previous year.
Comparing the three subsidized housing projects, the cost of simple public housing is the most expensive.
According to an article written by the Local Research Institute, it is roughly estimated that the average cost of simple public housing is as high as 890,000 yuan per unit. Compared with the upper limit of the cost of transitional housing, which is 550,000 yuan, it is even nearly 40% higher than that of permanent public housing units. It ranks first among other public housing types.
The Native Research Institute stated that it can be seen from government documents that piling works are still required for simple public housing, which may be the "culprit" of driving up costs.
The agency believes that the construction cost and procedures of simple public housing are the same as traditional public housing, but the residence period is only 5 years, and the simple public housing may be demolished in the future. The relevant land is used for the construction of permanent traditional public housing.
