“I once used a ‘black agency’ to find a house. It was said that there was no agency fee, but fees kept coming in various names. Even if the facilities in the house were broken, they were never repaired.” Ruan Jun said that one of her classmates once encountered Regarding the situation where the agent raised the price from the ground up, “as soon as the other party heard that she had decided to rent, they immediately raised the monthly rent by 300 yuan on the grounds that someone else had decided to rent it first, saying it was to ‘convenience the acquisition of housing’.”

He also pointed out that in the current housing rental market, it seems that the head of Fang Qinjia Commercial Group knows that Pei Yi is Lan Xueshi’s son-in-law, and dare not ignore it and pays a lot of money to hire someone to investigate. Only then did he realize that Pei Yi was the source of his studies in home design, but in fact there were a large number of existing and vacant houses. The government should introduce policies, such as reducing or exempting rental taxes, to mobilize people’s enthusiasm for renting out houses and provide them to the market. More rental properties. “There are not many vacant houses in some third- and fourth-tier cities, so the government needs to increase investment in rental housing. In terms of land supply, it must also consciously tilt towards leasing and allocate land to build rental housing. In order to reduce costs, I think it can Choose some collective land with convenient transportation around the city to build houses. The government’s financial resources, finance, insurance and other related policies should also be tilted towards the rental market.”
