What will you do if you encounter these problems? Next, Xiangtan 365 real estate online purchase experts teach you to deal with them one by one and successfully get a big house purchase order.

Question 1: When handing over the house, I found that the area was "short of Jin and two". How should we negotiate?

Housing area "rises" and "shrinks" seriously, and consumer complaints are difficult to solve.

Countermeasures: According to the Measures for the Administration of Commercial Housing Sales, if the absolute error of the area exceeds 3%, the buyer can choose to return the house, and both parties should make it clear in the contract.

Question 2: When buying a house, the property consultant boasted about the gift area 12 square meter, and the owner entrusted the developer to build it. Is it true that the house purchase rate exceeds 100%? What if this part of the building is later identified as illegal?

Giving away the area is usually a small skill of developers' marketing. These gift areas are usually not written into the contract, and the verbal commitment of the property consultant or the marking on the floor plan often has no legal benefit. If the gift area is reduced, it will be more difficult for buyers to claim rights. Most property buyers think it's a big bargain, but it's not. According to relevant national laws and regulations, semi-open balconies can only be included in half of the area, while balconies and home gardens can only be included in half of the area, that is, the other half should be enjoyed by buyers.

Countermeasures: When signing a house purchase contract, something given by some developers must be written into the contract, with a clear concept definition, and drawings must be attached if there are drawings.

Question 3: At present, all kinds of special rooms in the property market are in power, but the word "up" is far from it. What should I do?

During the downturn of the property market, it is an important means to stimulate market demand for developers to exchange prices for quantity and launch special rooms. Although there is a big difference between the special price and the average price of the real estate, it is really attractive, but it is inevitable that there will be a lack of floors, orientations and apartment types, which will affect the quality of living to a certain extent.

Countermeasures: A penny for a penny, buyers should keep a clear head in every link. Get the housing information through various channels. When buying a house, you must carefully weigh the pros and cons and see if the price/performance ratio is appropriate. You can't just stare at the price.

Question 4: I bought a hardcover room, and the price is much higher than that of a blank room. As a result, the decoration materials are shoddy. How can we avoid this situation?

The price of fine decoration is higher than that of rough house. Buyers spend money but can't get the expected hardcover effect. Doors and windows cabinets have become the goods of small workshops, and big brand bathroom wallpaper has become the work of small manufacturers to sell dog meat.

Countermeasures: When buying a house, the brand and quality standards of materials used for decoration and supporting facilities, including environmental protection and maintenance, should be written into the contract with detailed terms. This not only reduces the occurrence of problems when handing over the house, but also ensures the legitimate rights and interests of consumers. In the future, if the developer fails to cash in, these materials can be used as a powerful proof to investigate its legal responsibility.

Question 5: The house has been delivered for a long time, but the real estate license has been delayed. Developers have made various excuses and repeated promises, but they have not been dealt with. What should I do?

When buyers buy a house, developers usually promise to apply for real estate licenses within one or two years after delivery, but the results are delayed.

Countermeasures: When buying a house, it depends on whether the developer has complete "five certificates". The five certificates are: construction land planning permit, construction project planning permit, building construction permit, state-owned land use permit and commercial housing sales (pre-sale) permit. In the commercial housing sales contract, both parties should agree on the time limit for handling the real estate license. Once the developer delays handling, the buyer can choose to handle it himself or bring a lawsuit to the court to ask the developer to handle and pay the liquidated damages immediately.

Question 6: When buying a house, I promised all kinds of perfect supporting facilities, but I didn't deliver them. How to avoid the shrinking of supporting facilities?

A stadium that has never been opened, a stopped fountain, a dried-up swimming pool ... there are supporting facilities, but it is useless. For the owners, are these just gimmicks for developers to sell houses in those days? Before buying, it was agreed that a famous school would settle in and become a private school, but the promise of buying a real estate for admission became a partial order ...

Countermeasures: property buyers should calmly analyze the possibility and rationality of various supporting facilities, not be confused by superficial phenomena, and record all the contents of advertisements in formal contracts. If the developer fails to cash in later, these materials can be used as strong evidence to investigate its legal responsibility.

Question 7: The house is not delivered as agreed in the contract. What if the developer delays the delivery of the house?

The reason for delaying the delivery of the house may be that the developer is facing financial difficulties and the life is extremely tense, which in turn affects the construction progress.

Countermeasures: the owner sends a written notice of delivery, which can be used as evidence of rights protection and can also play a role in reminding developers. If there is still no reply from the developer after the delivery notice is issued, you can consider safeguarding rights.

Question 8: Do I have to pay the property fee if I don't hand over the house? Does the property fee include the water battery fee?

Countermeasures: the payment of property fees is based on the premise that the property contract takes effect. According to industry practice, the property contract is signed when the house is handed over, and there is no property service subject without the house. Therefore, if the property buyer has not signed a property contract before, the property company has no right to ask him to pay the property fee. If the property company does not check in for Mr. Jia at this time, the property buyers have the right to safeguard their rights and interests through legal channels.

Question 9: The proportion of parking spaces in emerging communities is seriously insufficient. What should I do if parking becomes a persistent problem?

Most of the owners of new residential areas are young people, so the number of private cars will be more, and the proportion of parking spaces in many residential areas will be insufficient. As a result, the garage staged a realistic version of "grabbing parking spaces" every day. At the same time, the phenomenon of vehicles parked and placed in the community is serious. As a result, the daily spat and friction between the owners of the community continue.

Countermeasures: The owner can complain to the Planning Bureau according to the relevant technical specifications. Therefore, for private car owners, when buying a house, we must pay reasonable attention to the proportion of parking spaces and regard it as an important condition for buying or not.

Question 10: Is there anything to pay attention to when repossessing the house?

At present, many property buyers have a vague understanding of the concept of repossession. In fact, repossession does not mean turning over the key, but the transfer of house ownership. Many buyers made mistakes in the process of repossession. It doesn't help to sign the notice of repossession blindly without carefully inspecting the house, and then find the problem and go to the developer.

Countermeasures: Pay special attention when taking over the house, and don't hand over the house under the condition of incomplete "three books, one certificate and one form", especially "Certificate of Quality of Building Engineering" and "Certificate of Comprehensive Acceptance of Real Estate Development and Construction Project Completion". We must accept the house before accepting it. Be sure to carefully check every detail of the house, including checking water and electricity, measuring area error, whether the wall is cracked, flat and leaking, etc. , and then check in if there is no quality problem. If housing quality problems are found, developers must be required to rectify them in time.
