- Stable Commercial District Formed by Fixed Demand from 250 Mixed-Use Apartment Households and Abundant Floating Population
- Pre-Leasing Contracts with Hospitals Completed... Investment Stability Secured with No Vacancy Concerns
In the commercial real estate market, vacancy is considered the biggest burden for investors. This is because, in addition to factors such as location and product competitiveness, the actual ability to secure tenants ultimately determines both profitability and asset value. Against this backdrop, "pre-leased commercial properties," which secure tenants before the sale is completed to minimize vacancy risk, are emerging as an alternative investment option.
Recently, commercial spaces that have already signed lease contracts with businesses that prefer long-term tenancies, such as hospitals and pharmacies, have been gaining particular popularity. Due to the high initial investment required for medical businesses, lease contracts of over 10 years are common. Additionally, the increase in medical demand driven by an aging population is expected to provide mid- to long-term income stability.
Amid this trend, "Villiv Centhai Golden Place," supplied by Shinsegae Engineering & Construction, is attracting the attention of investors. The complex is notable as a mixed-use commercial facility with both residential demand and a prime location near a transit station, and includes several units that have already secured pre-leased contracts with hospitals.
"Villiv Centhai Golden Place" is a street-type commercial complex located on the first to third floors of the "Villiv Centhai" mixed-use development in Hwado-eup, Namyangju-si, Gyeonggi-do. The complex consists of a total of 97 units. Currently, several units have already completed pre-leasing agreements with hospitals, and these lease contracts are directly transferred to the new owners upon sale. This structure allows investors to secure stable rental income immediately, without concerns about vacancy, which significantly enhances its investment appeal.
Strong demand further boosts its popularity. First, the 250 households in the "Villiv Centhai" mixed-use apartments (with 100% of contracts completed) provide exclusive demand for the commercial units. In addition, there are more than 16,000 people in the floating population within a 200-meter radius of the site. The fact that this is the first large-scale commercial complex near a transit station to be developed in the Maseokuri area, which has a catchment population of 110,000, in 20 years, is also a noteworthy factor.
Furthermore, the property is located in an educational district, with various schools such as Simseok Elementary, Middle, and High Schools, as well as Songra Elementary and Middle Schools, situated nearby. Transportation infrastructure is also expected to improve, with the GTX-B line scheduled to open at Maseok Station, a 10-minute walk away, in 2030.
The comfortable environment for commercial use is another standout feature. The main street design encourages natural customer flow throughout the commercial area, and customer convenience is enhanced through the installation of escalators and heating and cooling systems in all units. Considering the high volume of vehicle use typical of commercial facilities, the first basement level has been secured as a parking lot exclusively for commercial tenants and visitors, further adding to convenience.
According to representatives, "Villiv Centhai Golden Place" is being developed as a multi-purpose lifestyle platform capable of attracting not only residents of the complex but also external foot traffic. To achieve this, the property is being constructed as a street-type commercial area linked to a nearby riverside park, with plans to attract trendy dining establishments and daily convenience businesses.
A sales representative stated, "Given the location, which accommodates both residential and medical demand, and the completion of pre-leasing contracts, the response from both end-users and investors has been positive. This is an opportunity to reduce operational risk and secure stable, long-term returns, and inquiries continue to come in steadily."
The sales promotion center for "Villiv Centhai Golden Place" is located in Hwado-eup, Namyangju-si, Gyeonggi-do.
