As a result of a joint government investigation, it was found that 15 of the 20 Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) employees who purchased land in the third new city in the metropolitan area were concentrated in Gwangmyeong and Siheung, and exist doubts and against words. Recently, in Gwangmyeong and Siheung, a suspicious situation intended to compensate, such as the planting of rare trees (dragon willows, etc.) from LH employees who bought the land, was revealed one after another, and it was pointed out as a place where it was Find LH employees have probably grasped the information about the development of the new city beforehand. As a result of this survey, it was found that of the eight new cities, buyers from Gwangmyeong and Siheung accounted for 75% of the total, raising suspicions. However, it is not easy to predict whether LH employees will buy land after capturing the information about the development of new cities in Gwangmyeong and Siheung until the investigation by the joint government investigation headquarters reveals the truth. In the real estate industry, some LH employees are giving importance to the possibility that they have purchased land from Gwangmyeong and Siheung in some way with the aim of offsetting development and increasing assets. Gwangmyeong-Siheung was a land that could be created as a public housing district at any time, as the Bogeumjari housing district was raised in 2015 and private development was restricted until 2025 as a special management area. Thus, it has emerged as a promising new candidate city since September 2018 when the government announced its supply measures to develop large-scale public housing districts, as the third new city in the metropolitan area to expand the housing supply. It is highly likely that after at least September 2018, LH employees would have started purchasing land, considering that the Gwangmyeong and Siheung areas are likely to develop as new cities in the near future, even if they did not get specific related information. with the development. information. In particular, some LH employees bought the land in Gwangmyeong and Siheung in 2017-2019, and then additionally bought a field in Guarim-dong, Siheung-si in February last year, and then divided (divided) it into four lots of 1,000 square meters or more in July Experts point out that it seems to be a situation oriented towards the special offer of land for single-family homes or apartments transferred to the negotiated transferor who gives the land at the appraisal price. The policy of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport was confirmed internally in May last year. Therefore, it is suspected that these employees, who were in charge of compensation at LH’s Gyeonggi Regional Headquarters, were preparing for compensation since at least the second half of last year prior to the designation of a new city in Gwangmyeong. and Siheung (February this year). . Experts draw a line that, as a result of the government’s comprehensive investigation, the land transactions of LH employees in the new city area were less than expected, and that the results of the investigation, including relatives and loan transactions in name, must be observed. Choi Min-seop, professor at Seoul Venture Graduate University (Department of Real Estate), said: “As Minister Byeon Chang-heum mentioned, actually an LH employee bought all the answers in preparation for retirement, but there may be cases in which unfortunately designated as a new city. What he claimed before even investigating were frivolous words and actions. ” By Choi Jong-hoon, Staff Reporter
