Who is the founder of pool area?

The pool area was founded by Li Ka-shing.

When Li Ka-shing sold the house, it was actually sold according to the pool area, which also caused great controversy at that time. It is also said that the pool area was invented by Henry Fok, known as the land king of Hong Kong.

At first, the so-called pool area concept only appeared in Hong Kong, and was later introduced to the mainland. After that, many developers began to use this concept to sell houses, and the ultimate victims were ordinary property buyers. Because of the pool area, everyone's purchase cost will further increase. Now the house price is calculated according to the building square meters, including the pool area.

Contents of pool area

The pool area includes public hall, corridor, elevator, lobby, stairwell, elevator machine room, pipeline well, water pump room, fire escape, guard room and so on.

Now all commercial houses have a pool area, which is shared equally by all owners. When buying a house, the price of the pool area is generally included. When handling the real estate license, the area above the certificate also includes the pool area. Including the usual real estate fees, it is also necessary to calculate the pool area.

The percentage of pool area is different for different types of houses. If the purchased house is an ordinary multi-storey commercial house without underground facilities, the pool area will be relatively small, between 10%- 15%. But if the house you buy belongs to a small high-rise elevator room, the pool area of this house will be slightly larger, which should be between 15% and 20%.
