- 100% Construction Completion... Special Sale for Officetels and Commercial Spaces Ready for Immediate Move-in and Operation
Issues regarding defects in pre-sale apartment complexes, such as the quality of finishing and interior materials and the overall completion of interiors, continue to be raised. In addition, with a shortage of new housing supply, "build first, sell later" complexes are gaining attention.
In October of last year, the Defect Review and Dispute Mediation Committee of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced that it had handled an average of about 4,400 defect disputes annually since 2019. In 2023 alone, the committee processed 3,525 defect cases by August, which is about 20% more disputes than in previous years. Notably, the proportion of cases actually determined to be defects reached nearly 64%, indicating a significantly high defect rate.
In "build first, sell later" complexes, prospective buyers can directly check the quality and completion of living spaces and on-site facilities before making a purchase, ensuring greater residential stability. These complexes are also free from issues such as construction delays or builder bankruptcies, and unlike pre-sale complexes that require a long wait before move-in, they allow for immediate occupancy.
Against this backdrop, the residential officetel "Sangbong Station Ubora Firstrive," which has achieved 100% construction completion and is ready for immediate occupancy, is drawing attention as it prepares for discretionary sales.
This complex will announce its sales notice on June 13 (Friday), and subscription applications will be accepted over two days, June 18 (Wednesday) and June 19 (Thursday). Winners will be announced on June 24 (Tuesday), and any domestic resident aged 19 or older can apply without a subscription savings account.
Sangbong Station Ubora Firstrive is located in the Sangbong Station area of Jungnang-gu, consisting of 196 units across 7 basement floors and 18 above-ground floors, with exclusive areas ranging from 39 to 84 square meters. It offers a variety of unit types, including 1.5-room, 2-room, and 3-room layouts, making it suitable for both owner-occupancy and rental purposes. The living spaces are equipped with a smart IoT system, and the complex features premium community facilities (such as a book cafe, guest rooms, and a rooftop garden) and commercial spaces, providing excellent residential convenience. The adoption of 100% self-parking design is another advantage, ensuring convenient parking for residents.
The complex is located within walking distance (approximately 160 meters) of Sangbong Station, which is emerging as a new central hub in northeastern Seoul, offering easy access to the metropolitan transportation network. Sangbong Station serves as a transfer hub for four lines: Subway Line 7, the Gyeongchun Line, the Gyeongui?Jungang Line, and the KTX Gangneung Line. If the planned GTX-B line is added, it is expected to become a super-regional transportation hub for the Seoul metropolitan area. In addition, the complex offers premium accessibility to major business districts such as Seoul Station, Yeouido, and Yongsan, all within 20 minutes.
Furthermore, the development of the Myeonmok Line (Cheongnyangni~Sinnae) light rail and the Sangbong Station integrated transfer center is actively underway, which is expected to further improve the transportation environment in the Jungnang-gu area.
The rapid improvement of residential conditions in the Sangbong-dong area is also noteworthy. The area has been designated as a "Reconstruction Promotion District," and a total of 7,800 new housing units are set to be supplied sequentially. In particular, a large-scale mixed-use development project that will fundamentally transform the urban structure of Jungnang-gu is underway, centered around the former Sangbong Terminal site. This project will create a new urban center integrating apartment complexes, officetels, retail, and cultural facilities.
The area is already well-equipped with infrastructure. Large-scale commercial and cultural facilities such as Costco, Homeplus, Enter6, CGV, a mega-sized Daiso, and Jungnang Art Center are clustered nearby. There are also a variety of elementary, middle, and high schools within walking distance, providing an excellent educational environment for children. Residents can also enjoy a pleasant living environment, with abundant green spaces such as Mangusan, Bonghwasan, and the Jungnangcheon riverside park in close proximity.
A sales representative commented, "Not only is immediate move-in possible since construction has already been completed, but the ability to verify the property in person increases trust in its quality, making it attractive to both end-users and investors. The prime location of Sangbong Station Ubora Firstrive, which allows residents to enjoy extensive infrastructure and various development benefits, is another reason it deserves attention."
Meanwhile, the commercial facilities within the Sangbong Station Ubora Firstrive complex will also be offered for sale alongside the officetel units. Related information can be found on the official website or by calling the main inquiry number.
