Seung-min Yoo, a former member of the Future Integration Party (now the power of the people), also said, “It’s amazing. Who would see it as a solution? ”▶ Restored the 3rd Leasing Law ▶ Revised the origin of real estate countermeasures.

In the hotel industry, there was talk that the hotel renovation policy was desk management. A hotel official in Gangnam-gu said, “The basic structure of the building is completely different for accommodation and residential use. We need to provide additional facilities such as city gas connection and garbage separation facilities, and we need to pay attention to surrounding traffic. ”

For a hotel to fulfill its residential function, it would have to undergo major renovations, which can be more expensive than reconstruction, the official said. He also said that when only part of it is converted for residential use, there can be confusion in the laws and regulations of the facilities.

He criticized: “In particular, in the Gangnam area, if a hotel next to a pre-sale department becomes a rental housing, there will be more opposition,” he said. “It seems that the government has created a defeat and has devised an impractical policy to try to recover somehow.”
