The annual graduation season is approaching. Say goodbye to the ivory tower and enter the society. In addition to getting an offer, renting a house of your choice is one of the important tasks faced by many graduates.

In order to gain an in-depth understanding of the details of Shanghai’s centralized long-term rental apartments, recently, News Morning Post·Zhouzhou and Lianchengxing jointly conducted a survey of nine major centralized apartments in five central urban areas: Jing’an, Changning, Putuo, Hongkou and Yangpu. 55 stores of long-term rental apartment brands were evaluated (evaluation results are shown in the table).

Rent

The average monthly rent is 3,900 yuan, which is a "premium" of 30 yuan compared with individual rentals

The lowest rent for long-term rental apartments is on Hutai Road, V Territory, located in Jing'an Shop, the average rent is 1,850 yuan/month. This is not common in bustling downtowns, but tenants will inevitably have to sacrifice some indoor space and external environment for this purpose. Next is the Youmi International Community Qinzhou North Road store located in Xuhui District. The average rental price is 3,000 yuan/month. Because Youmi Community is mainly targeted at newly graduated college students, the total rental price will not be too high.

The long-term rental apartments with the highest rents are in Xuhui: the boutique baseLIVING Wending Road store and Hongqiao Road store, with an average rent of 17,300 yuan per month. According to the person in charge of the Wending Road store, the area of ??the houses ranges from 31 square meters to 113 square meters, and the unit types are mainly 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, LOFT, etc. The tenants are mainly middle- and high-rise people from multinational companies.

According to the statistical analysis of Lianchengxing, the average price of the 55 centralized long-term rental apartments is about 3,900 yuan/month. Compared with the surrounding scattered rental apartments (1 bedroom), the rental price is The gap is about 30. The main reason is that long-term rental apartments can be more refined and centralized management, and regularly provide various additional services to meet the needs of tenants; they have better quality living space, more uniform decoration, simple and exquisite style, and complete indoor facilities. , in line with the aesthetics of the current mainstream customer groups; you can live with peace of mind, the lease term is stable, and you don’t need to worry about the landlord suddenly issuing an eviction order; there is a corresponding public space that allows tenants to socialize offline.

Transportation

More than 90% of apartments have rail transit within 1 kilometer.

In a recent survey by reporters on the housing rental questionnaire for graduation season students, respondents generally requested The house you rent is close to your workplace and the subway station, and the commuting time is best within half an hour.

Among the 55 centralized long-term rental apartments evaluated this time, more than 90% (51 apartments) have rail transit within 1 kilometer of their door.

For example, Rubik's Cube Apartment Hanzhong Road Branch has five intersections within 1,000 meters. Exit 4 of Hanzhong Road Station of Metro Lines 1, 12, and 13 is right downstairs. It can be described as a real zero-distance subway room. .

Environment

Elevator access, abandoned terraces, and defects in public areas

During the evaluation, the reporter visited more than a dozen centralized long-term rental apartments , found that these branded rental apartments can greatly improve tenants' living satisfaction under unified butler service and management. Private social spaces such as video rooms, gyms, book bars, and kitchens also make it easier for tenants to connect with each other. However, there are still more or less flaws in the operation of public areas.

Many centralized long-term rental apartments were transformed from original office buildings, factories, and shopping malls. This brings considerable difficulty to the transformation and management of their public areas. For example, the Rubik's Cube Apartment Jiangning Road store is located on the 12th floor of the Waiwai Lian Apartment at No. 777 Jiangning Road. The building has more than 20 floors. There are no less than 30 law firms, offices, and companies scattered on each floor. Due to the "congenital shortcomings" of the building, This also brings great difficulties to the management of the apartment, so the "public area environment" is 0 stars.

For the first time when I came to the Gulfstream International Liuying Road store on Hutai Road, the reporter thought that I had gone to the wrong door. The signs of "JD Express Shanghai Luochuan Station" and "HARBOURCO-LIVING" are hung together, making people mistakenly think that the current cross-border cooperation in rental apartments is so imaginative. A closer look shows that the apartment is located on the third floor, and the entrance to the apartment is obviously the freight elevator entrance left by the original shopping mall.

In this regard, the staff of the apartment also admitted frankly that the entry lobby and elevator have indeed dropped in price. “We also want to replace it, but because it is a historical legacy of the original shopping mall, we need to replace it on the 1st to 4th floors. Only when all merchants agree can they be updated."

In addition, the "predecessors" of many long-term rental apartments are hotels, even quasi-four-star high-star hotels, and the hardware facilities of the original public spaces have been replaced. Pretty good. However, during the reporter's visit, we found that the public spaces in many centralized long-term rental apartments are just for show, and the shared spaces that are originally convenient for tenants to communicate with each other have been covered with a thick layer of dust. .

For example, the public area on the first floor of Boyu Shanghai West Station Branch is equipped with a billiards area, a living room, a book bar, an unattended convenience store, express cabinets, coffee machines, a gym, and ** * Enjoy 24-hour self-service facilities such as kitchens, but reporters found that even between 18:00 and 20:00 after get off work, few people care about these facilities. Whether it's a book bar, billiards room or gym, few tenants come to play. In this regard, many tenants who have just entered the workplace said, "The work pressure is too great and I can't play at all! Work consumes 'half a life', commuting to and from get off work and squeezing the subway consumes 'half a life'. When I go home, I can't do anything." I want to stay in the house and don’t want to go anywhere.” Another tenant told reporters that the reason why he did not use it frequently was because some of the facilities were not well maintained. He had expressed interest in using the public kitchen once before. Induction cooker, “But I don’t know if it was moisture or some other reason, but there was always a short circuit that day, and I didn’t cook anymore.”

In addition to the Boyu Shanghai West Railway Station store, reporters in different apartments They all found that their terraces and rocking chairs, which are very suitable for relaxing, were filled with dust and even damaged due to the operator's negligence. Some tenants lamented, "Our house can be cleaned regularly by the housekeeper, so what about the gym?" Can public space facilities such as equipment, terrace tables and chairs be maintained and cleaned regularly? ”
