- As Home Prices Continue to Rise, Last-Minute Buyers Fuel Surging Demand on Day 3 of Legitimate Contract Signing
- Legitimate Contracts Close Today: Flat 10 Million Won Initial Payment and Interest-Free Interim Payment Benefits Offered
The legitimate contract signing for HDC Hyundai Development Company's "Chuncheon Lake City Phase 2 I-Park," which has attracted significant expectations and interest from consumers and investors in Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province and the Chuncheon area, is drawing remarkable enthusiasm.
Since the start of legitimate contracts on Monday, September 22, "Chuncheon Lake City Phase 2 I-Park" has now reached its third day, with a large number of people visiting to sign contracts, resulting in a soaring contract rate. This is in stark contrast to the polarization and unsold inventory concerns in the regional real estate market, fueling expectations that all units will be sold out soon.
During the first-priority subscription, the project recorded an average competition rate of 27.35 to 1 and a peak of 40.1 to 1. It was the only project in the Chuncheon area since November 2023 where all housing types closed in the first round. Real estate experts say that, given these results, a complete sell-out is virtually certain.
In fact, "Chuncheon Lake City Phase 2 I-Park" has shown heated contract activity every day from the first day up to today, the third day. If there are any ineligible subscription winners after the contract period, contracts will be offered to reserve winners. There have already been inquiries about this process, even though the schedule has not yet been announced.
Some observers attribute this to the perception that now is the optimal time to buy a home. This is due to the sharp rise in private apartment sale prices nationwide, as well as the fact that Seoul housing prices-considered a leading indicator-are hitting new highs day after day.
As concerns grow that the sale prices of new apartment complexes will not remain at current levels, more people are rushing to sign contracts to avoid missing out.
For consumers and investors, this means it will soon become difficult to find brand-name apartments from major construction companies at reasonable prices. At the same time, projects that offer both satisfactory pricing and quality are those whose sale prices have already been set in the current market.
A contract signer from Hyoja-dong shared, "With it becoming clear that apartment sale prices go up overnight, I couldn't delay buying a home any longer. The longer I hesitated, the later I would move into a new apartment, and my living costs would also increase. I am extremely pleased to have signed a contract for this apartment, which I judged to be reasonably priced."
On its third and final day, HDC Hyundai Development Company's "Chuncheon Lake City Phase 2 I-Park" will conclude legitimate contract signing today (September 24). With strong interest in both the subscription and contract processes, the project is expected to establish a leading "I-Park" brand town in the area, thanks to its outstanding product features and location advantages.
