What is the important difference between affordable housing and commercial housing, and what is the approximate price difference between affordable housing and commercial housing. What matters need to be paid attention to? Affordable housing refers to housing that has been included in the national plan, built by the city government through real estate development companies or fund-raising housing construction units, and sold to low- and middle-income families in urban areas at a low profit. It is a commercial housing with social security properties. It has the characteristics of economy and applicability. Economy means that the housing price is moderate compared to the market price and can adapt to the affordability of low- and middle-income families. Applicability refers to emphasizing the practical effect of housing in terms of housing design, single unit area setting and construction standards. The price of affordable housing is determined based on construction costs. Construction costs include land acquisition discount fees, survey, design and preliminary engineering fees, construction and installation fees, infrastructure supporting construction fees in the community, loan interest, taxes, and management fees of 1% to 3%. Affordable housing is sold at a slim profit margin. Only for sale, not for rent. The cost price is composed of 7 factors (land acquisition and relocation fees, survey and design fees, supporting fees, construction and installation fees, management fees, loan interest, and profits within 5%). The sale of affordable housing is subject to government-guided prices, and the selling price is determined comprehensively by the municipal and county people's governments based on the above factors. And regularly announce that no unauthorized price increases are allowed. The biggest differences between affordable housing and ordinary commercial housing are: 1. Land is allocated rather than transferred, so affordable housing does not have land use rights when purchased; 2. The area and type of affordable housing have strict national regulations; 3 . The purchase of affordable housing must meet the corresponding national regulations, that is, the per capita living area and per capita household income must meet the corresponding local standards; 4. The price of affordable housing is subject to government guidance, and developers cannot set or adjust prices at will; 5 . There are different regulations on the transfer of affordable housing in different regions. Generally, the transfer is not allowed within a certain period of time. 6. During the transfer of affordable housing, land transfer fees must be paid to the state. Personally, I think the price of affordable housing will be cheaper than that of commercial housing, but the quality of commercial housing will be better than that of affordable housing. It depends on how you choose. If you have enough funds, you can choose commercial housing, which will have more discounts.
