Houses without a certificate and fire safety are still being advertised for sale at high prices
Despite not ensuring fire prevention and fighting safety conditions (PCCC) and lack of legal documents, many apartments are still being advertised for sale at high prices in Hanoi.
Although it has been handed over to residents for 10 years, this building has not yet been PCCC-approved and does not have an apartment ownership certificate.
On May 22, an apartment on the 15th floor of the building caught fire "in a closed state" because the fire alarm system was not working, with many dangers lurking, however, on the buying and selling sites, the apartments here are still being advertised for sale at quite high prices.
"Selling houses in the core center of Ha Dong district, opposite Ha Dong District Party Committee, convenient traffic connection. Near the school, market, supermarket, elevated train station, bus station for public transport is extremely convenient. The 2-bedroom apartment, area of 96 square meters, has a peak price of 4 billion", Ms. Lien introduced herself as the owner of the apartment for sale.
With a price of about 40 - 45 million VND/m2, many times higher than the starting price (18.3 million VND/m2 in 2015), lacking safety and legal conditions, however, when selling a house, most of this information is not mentioned by sellers and brokers. See more...
