Henan 18 New Deal Stabilizes the Property Market

On February 2 1, seven departments, including the Housing and Construction Department of Henan Province, the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, the Provincial Department of Finance, and the Provincial Department of Natural Resources, jointly issued "Several Opinions on Dealing with the Impact of COVID-19 Epidemic and Preventing and Resolving the Risks in the Real Estate Market" (hereinafter referred to as "Opinions"), proposing to support the sales department and construction site in areas with slight epidemic to resume work in an all-round way.

It is mentioned in the Opinions that it is necessary to implement precise epidemic prevention measures on a county basis, fully restore the office space, sales department and project construction site of real estate enterprises in areas with mild epidemic situation under the condition of ensuring epidemic prevention and control, and guide the areas with serious epidemic situation to resume work in an orderly manner. After lifting the first-level response measures, guide enterprises to resume production and work as soon as possible.

Fully implement the "no meeting" approval, improve the efficiency of construction project approval, and implement online information filing for all filing projects through the online approval and supervision platform of investment projects in Henan Province.

Support all localities to speed up the formalities of real estate projects through "notification and commitment system" and strengthening supervision after the event. Planning permission, commercial housing pre-sale permit and other administrative examination and approval items need on-site investigation, which should be fully restored immediately. The construction of the real estate project that has obtained the construction permit is affected by the epidemic situation. When applying for pre-sale, the original image progress requirement is adjusted to be calculated according to the investment amount, and the pre-sale permit can be applied if the investment amount of the pre-sale part reaches more than 25%. On the premise of risk control, explore the form of letter of guarantee to replace the supervision of pre-sale funds of commercial housing, or flexibly adjust the allocation node of supervision funds.

In addition, the opinion also proposes to guide the banking financial institutions in the province to fully grasp the information of real estate enterprises in a timely manner and optimize the credit process. On the premise of preventing risks, real estate development loans will be appropriately issued to real estate enterprises with good qualifications and operating in good faith but seriously affected by the epidemic and difficult to repay when due, according to the actual progress of the project and cash recovery. Loans due before June 30, 2020 with a loan term of less than 1 year may be extended, and credit records shall be submitted according to the adjusted repayment arrangement.

In addition to providing support to real estate enterprises in terms of credit, the Opinions also reduced the burden on real estate enterprises in terms of land acquisition.

During the epidemic prevention and control period, the bid bond can be determined according to 20% of the initial price of the newly transferred land, and 50% of the land transfer price can be paid within one month after the signing of the transfer contract, and the balance can be applied for deferred payment, with the longest not exceeding 1 year. If it is impossible to sign the Confirmation of Transaction or the Transfer Contract on schedule due to the epidemic situation, the bidder may apply for an extension of signing. Affected by the epidemic, the delivery of the sold land has been postponed, resulting in the failure to start and complete the real estate project on schedule, and the opening and completion time has been postponed accordingly.

The "Opinions" suggest that on the basis of extending the tax declaration period in February, real estate development enterprises that are still difficult to apply for tax declaration due to the epidemic situation may apply for further extension according to law; If serious difficulties occur in the production and operation affected by the epidemic, you may apply for an extension of tax payment according to law, and the longest period shall not exceed 3 months.

For real estate enterprises that have serious difficulties affected by the epidemic, if they meet the conditions for reduction or exemption, they may apply for reduction or exemption of property tax and urban land use tax according to regulations. For real estate development projects, if it is indeed difficult to pay the land value-added tax in 2020 according to the prescribed collection rate, it may be appropriately reduced or exempted with the consent of the competent tax authorities.
