When buying a house, you need to look at the housing availability rate. There are some misunderstandings that you should know in advance.

The "house acquisition rate" refers to the ratio of the area available to residents (that is, the built-up area in the apartment) to the built-up area of ??each household (that is, the sales area).

The building area in the condominium = the usable area in the condominium + the wall area in the condominium;

The sales area (also called the condominium building area) = the building area in the condominium + the allocated public buildings Area (commonly known as "shared area");

House acquisition rate = (Building area - Shared area)/Building area; Housing acquisition rate is an important indicator for buying a house. When calculating the area of ??a house, the building area is calculated, so the housing acquisition rate is too low and unaffordable; too high and inconvenient. Because the higher the housing acquisition rate, the smaller the area of ????the public area, and residents will feel depressed.

It is a misunderstanding to blindly pursue a high housing acquisition rate

The "housing acquisition rate" of each property is very different. Generally speaking, the "housing acquisition rate" of multi-story residential buildings is The "occupancy rate" of small high-rise residential buildings is between 85 and 90%. The "occupancy rate" of high-rise buildings is relatively low, generally between 75 and 80%. The "occupancy rate" of serviced apartments will be even lower.

Generally, it is more appropriate for the housing acquisition rate to be around 80%. The condominium is spacious and elegant, and the shared area is not too much, making it more affordable. Generally, the occupancy rate of multi-story buildings is 88%, that of high-rise buildings is 72%, and that of office buildings is 55%.

What are the factors that affect the "house acquisition rate"?

Industry insiders said that the proportion of shared area in different real estate projects is different, and there are many influencing factors. For example, whether the building is a slab or a tower, the number of elevators and other supporting facilities, etc.

Generally, the higher the floor and the more complex the floor structure, the higher the proportion of public stalls.

The main difference is whether the building form is a tower or a slab building. If it is a plank building with north-south openness, the "occupancy rate" is usually above 80%, and the square shape of the house is easy to fully utilize. For multi-story residences, public areas such as elevators and water supply equipment rooms can also be saved.

The tower structure can achieve a high floor area ratio for multiple households in one elevator, but the "occupancy rate" is usually only 75%, because in addition to the elevator shaft, distribution room, etc., which are all counted as public spaces, the first floor The multi-family design also makes it difficult to use space efficiently.

In addition to different architectural forms, some developers will increase the "occupancy rate" through other methods. They will try to expand the usable area in terms of indoor design without adding additional public spaces. The best trick is semi-enclosed balconies. and large bay windows.

Analysis of factors affecting the housing acquisition rate

The most direct reason affecting the housing acquisition rate is the size of the shared area. The common area includes two parts. One is the construction area of ??elevator shafts, stairwells, garbage chute, transformer room and other public and management rooms that functionally serve the entire building. The second is half of the horizontal projected area of ??the dividing wall between the suite (unit) and the common building space and the exterior wall (including gable). Specifically speaking, it is mainly reflected in several aspects:

①. House type structure (several stairs and households). For example, one apartment with multiple households may have the same common area as one apartment with two households. However, as the number of households increases and the total building area increases, the common area that each household needs to apportion will decrease.

②. Real estate form. Generally speaking, high-rise buildings have the lowest room availability rate, small-rise buildings have a higher room availability rate, and multi-storey buildings have a higher room availability rate.

③. Property type. Generally speaking, the board type has the highest room acquisition rate, followed by the stacked type, and the point type has a lower rate.

④. The size of the public activity area. Generally speaking, high-quality properties often have high-ceiling lobbies, spacious elevators, and indoor garages. These occupy a large amount of shared area, so the occupancy rate is relatively low.

⑤. What kind of area is not counted as a shared area?

Spaces with independent functions such as garages and clubs; self-operated and self-used houses by the sales unit; guard rooms, management rooms, equipment rooms, etc. that serve multiple houses.

When it comes to the “housing rate”, the higher the better?

Many home buyers think that the higher the housing acquisition rate, the better. This is not entirely correct. Relevant people said that the housing acquisition rate is often linked to the relevant supporting facilities of the community, such as the width of the stairs, the corridors of the public corridors, the number of elevators, etc. If the housing acquisition rate is particularly high, it can only mean that the supporting facilities of the house are not very good. . There is no fixed standard for the most appropriate housing acquisition rate. It mainly involves two important aspects: the supporting public facilities in the community and the housing type itself.

Some people in the industry also mentioned that there is a planning control text for community supporting facilities when the land is developed. This control text gives the minimum area ratio that the community needs to support (such as community housing, property housing) , property management buildings, etc.), developers have their own countermeasures when dealing with this ratio. Some developers want to develop a high-grade, fully equipped, and comfortable community, so they will build larger clubs, leisure and other public buildings. , these areas must exceed the lower limit of planning control. In the end, the proportion of the total residential area in this community may be slightly lower, and the proportion of public housing area may be higher, but the overall grade of the community is higher and the quality has been improved, and it is still a good building.

“Developers have different ideas for making money. Some developers do not want to build too many community houses, so they will keep this area to a minimum, and will not consider clubhouses, leisure and other spaces. In the end, although this building It complies with the specifications and has a high room acquisition rate, but it has no quality and is not high-grade.”

We cannot blindly emphasize the room acquisition rate for the apartment type itself. It depends on whether the apartment design is reasonable. Although the room acquisition rate is high, it is very deep and has many corridors, dark rooms, etc. This makes the room acquisition rate so high that it is meaningless.

The "house acquisition rate" affects the usable area of ??the house you purchase, and measures the comfort of a house in use. However, when choosing the numerical value of the "House Acquisition Rate", one should not blindly choose a high value one-sidedly, but should conduct a comprehensive study based on the actual situation.
