‘닥치고 공급’ 넘어 ‘신속한 공급’…착공기간 절반 줄이고 민간에 금융 혜택

The '8·13 Rapid Housing Supply Plan' unveiled by the government on August 13 focuses on 'quick supply' over expanding supply quantities, which is a notable shift from previous government policies. Notably, it introduces a volume of 23,000 units without specifying the exact amount, prioritizing reducing the time gap between announcing the supply plan and commencement of construction and lease distribution.

The plan's top priority is to establish a 'shortest public land construction model', which dramatically shortens the construction period from the average 68 months to 37 months, a drastic measure unprecedented in any government. This speed is also reflected in the newly designated public land in the towns of Andong-dong, Gwangmyeong City, and Dongducheon, with 21,700 units scheduled to begin construction in 2030.

This is comparable to the supply speed of the Seoul Seocho-gu Seorifulpyeonggu area, which had previously been scheduled to commence construction in 2029. The government's shifting perspective on public housing supply is evident in the push for private developers to offer financial and tax incentives to promote supply in the non-apartment sector.

The government has actively engaged with private sector stakeholders to remove obstacles to construction, including adjusting housing development regulations and providing financial and tax incentives. Despite the absence of a large-scale new supply area in Seoul, the impact of these measures on the market remains uncertain.
