The growing demand for degree housing does not match the fixed educational resources, gradually giving rise to conflicts between owners and developers.
With the cancellation of degree housing in Nancheng, Liaobu and other areas, disputes over degree housing have also reached a fever pitch.
April is the deadline for degree application in Dongguan every year. As the deadline gets closer, parents of school-age children begin to rush to prepare materials for their children to apply for a degree.
However, the number of places in public schools is limited, and many families may not meet the requirements for points admission. Therefore, many people prefer to use degree housing to solve their children's degree problems.
However, the growing demand for degree housing does not match the fixed educational resources, which has gradually given rise to conflicts between owners and developers.
With the cancellation of degree housing in Nancheng, Liaobu and other areas, disputes over degree housing have also reached a fever pitch.
Regarding degree housing, there are different voices in the industry.
Some people think that there are too many tricks and unspoken rules behind degree housing, and coupled with the shortage of educational resources, the abolition of degree housing in Dongguan will become a future trend; some people think that scarcity is more valuable, and it is precisely because of the shortage of educational resources that there is a separate degree
properties will become scarce resources and have greater market appeal.
A few days ago, a real estate owner in Guancheng was unable to attend a well-known elementary school in Guancheng because of his daughter. He held a sit-in at the project marketing center to defend his rights, and posted a slogan in the sales department saying "Defending rights does not violate the law and refuses to be drawn by lottery."
The owner, Ms. Chen, said: "I bought this building with hundreds of thousands of yuan, mainly to solve the problem of children's education. At the beginning, the developer promised to buy the project and the children could attend a well-known primary school in Guancheng. Now the developer cannot promise
All real estate students obtain degrees from the same prestigious school, and they can only decide whether their children can attend a certain elementary school by drawing lots. This is unfair to the children who cannot be drawn. In this regard, the owner Mr. Ye said: "We are buying a house."
At that time, I was pursuing a degree from a well-known elementary school, and buying a house also paid a huge financial price." In response to this situation, the reporter interviewed the relevant person in charge of the real estate, and he said: "At the beginning, when selling the project, the marketers promised the owners.
Their children can attend the primary school in Guancheng, but not all owners can attend this well-known primary school. As for why this problem is solved through lottery, this is because there are 78 school-age children in the community, but only 30 in Guancheng.
This solution is also based on fairness and openness about the degree quotas of well-known primary schools. "At present, there are not many real estates in Dongguan that truly support degree quotas. Even if parents can afford degree housing, they cannot enjoy degree resources due to issues such as quotas and household registration."
At this time, degree housing is just a concept. The sales staff will not promote the degree concept when selling properties, but will "hint" parents who are in urgent need of a degree and inform them that there are many well-known schools around the property.
“Parents are so eager to get a degree that they have to pay expensive costs to buy a conceptual degree,” said an industry insider.
Li, a senior real estate lawyer in Dongguan, explained about degree housing: "A degree is a rigid demand and is something that many owners urgently need. Developers will use the degree to promote property sales. If the degree is not easy to achieve, disputes may arise, but it will not be a problem.
Contract fraud, this is because the developer will not write the promise of a degree in the contract, let alone check out without a degree. "It is reported that there are two situations in which a property will provide a degree. One is that the Education Bureau will issue a degree under certain conditions.
Relevant public school degrees are given to real estate, so that home owners have the right to degree; the other is that some large developers open private schools themselves or cooperate with them to solve the needs of property owners for degree housing.
However, some private degrees, such as Chaotian Primary School and Nankai Primary School, are very popular, and their educational resources are also relatively tight.
"For private schools built by developers, they are now recruiting students from all over the city and will provide preferential policies to owners. However, as more and more projects are developed by large developers, they may not be able to meet the needs of all owners." Chen Junliang said.
Degree housing reflects the mismatch of educational resources. At present, the price of degree housing in Dongguan is not as high as that in Guangzhou and Shenzhen. It is often "a sky-high price". However, compared with real estate in the same area, the price of degree housing with "degree" as the selling point is slightly higher.
In order to obtain a degree, owners are willing to pay high costs.
The reporter learned that some developers paid a certain amount of education supporting funds to the government, corresponding to the degree indicators.
After all, degrees are limited, and the school’s educational resources cannot keep up with the progress of project development and sales in urban areas. Demand exceeds supply. Developers may not be able to guarantee that every owner has a degree indicator. There are many variables in the matter of degrees.
When supply cannot meet demand, disputes tend to arise.
In recent years, conflicts between developers and property owners have increased due to the shortage of academic resources.
In 2013, Liaobu and Nancheng successively suspended degree housing.
Are Nancheng and Liaobu facing a shortage of degree resources? Let’s take Nancheng as an example to calculate an account. According to data provided by the Dongguan Market Research Department of Hefuhuihuanghuang, there were 6,673 residential units sold in Nancheng in 2013.
If calculated based on 3 people per household, 20,000 people will move in. Calculated based on the city's annual birth rate of 10%, 2,000 people are born every year. According to current national regulations, if the class capacity is ≤50 people, an 8-track school needs to be built.
system school.
If the nearby primary schools and middle schools related to the project are at full capacity and unable to expand enrollment, then the children of 7,143 households will face the situation of having no school to attend.
