2.Loan pre-approval first: It is recommended to complete the bank pre-screening before signing the contract to avoid default due to qualification issues.
3.Take advantage of tax benefits: The first home can enjoy a 50% reduction in deed tax (a proof of no-house ownership is required).
4.Property rights processing: You need to be present in person to apply for the real estate certificate, and the entrusted notary must be certified by the Shanwei Justice Bureau.
6. Risk warning
• Some township projects have small property rights risks and require inspection of the original "Five Certificates"
• The average listing cycle for second-hand houses in Shanwei will be 8 months in 2023, so investment needs to be cautious
• The "guaranteed settlement" policy promised by the developer has been completely cancelled, and points must be used to register through formal channels.
Note: The statistical period of the above data is October 1-10, 2023. The specific implementation is subject to the latest documents of Shanwei Municipal Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau. It is recommended to consult a professional agency before purchasing a house to ensure that there are no changes to the policy.
