Should We Aim for the 4th Pre-Subscription with Good Transportation and Location? Interest in Goyang Changneung and Namyangju Wangsuk

Last Pre-Subscription of the Year, Attention Real Demanders
115 Units in Seoul Daebang... Prime Location Near Line 1 Station
Daegjang-Hongdae Line Benefit... Includes Bucheon Daegjang
General Supply is a Good Choice in 'Goyang Changneung'
Next Year, Expanded Private Pre-Subscription Quotas in Seoul

With a total of 16,876 units supplied as the last pre-sale quota of the year, real demand buyers' interest is focused. Not only are many units from the 3rd generation new towns with good locations and transportation, such as Namyangju Wangsuk and Goyang Changneung, included, but for the first time in this 4th round, some units in Seoul are also included, so it is expected that subscription applications will flood in. Experts advise that a strategic approach is necessary to increase the chances of winning, as competition rates vary greatly depending on location, quantity, and sale price.

First Seoul Units Released... Prime Location Near Line 1 Subway Station

According to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport on the 29th, the government announced the recruitment of residents for a total of 16,876 units, including 13,552 units for the 4th public pre-sale and 3,324 units for the 2nd private pre-sale, and officially started the subscription schedule. Public sales will be conducted at a total of 12 locations. Among the 3rd generation new towns, units from Namyangju Wangsuk, Goyang Changneung, and Bucheon Daejang are released, and Seongnam Geumto and Guri Galmae are also included.

The most notable place is undoubtedly the military housing site in Daebang-dong, Seoul. Originally, the government planned to conduct pre-sale subscriptions for the site of the Capital Defense Command (Subangsa) in Dongjak-gu, Seoul, but due to delays in the approval process, the location was urgently changed. Although the supply quantity is only 115 units, it is located just south of Yeouido and is a prime location near Line 1 subway station, attracting much attention.

This site was previously decided for housing complex development by the Ministry of Strategy and Finance in 2019 through approval by the State Property Policy Review Committee to support housing for young people. It will be developed as 115 units of Newlywed Hope Town and military apartments. All units are 55㎡ (exclusive area), and the estimated sale price is 724.63 million KRW, which is relatively high, but nearby similar-sized units exceed 1 billion KRW, so a capital gain of several hundred million KRW is expected. Since 100% of the supply is for the local area and the quantity is small, it is expected to be a 'lottery' subscription in practice.

Namyangju Wangsuk, Bucheon Daejang... Good Transportation and Location

Namyangju Wangsuk, which supplies the largest quantity of 2,352 units in the 4th pre-sale, also draws attention. Since Namyangju Wangsuk 2 District recorded an average competition rate of 34.2 to 1 in the previous 2nd pre-sale, it is highly likely that this area will also record a high competition rate. Future establishment of the Seoul Metropolitan Express Railway (GTX) Line B is expected to improve access to Seoul, and 689 units of the highly demanded 84㎡ size will be supplied.

Bucheon Daejang (1,863 units), close to Seoul Magok and Gimpo Airport, is expected to have many office worker demands. Currently, there is no subway connecting to major areas in Seoul, but the GTX-B line is scheduled to open at the nearby Bucheon Sports Complex Station, and the Daejang-Hongdae Line connecting Daejang District to Seoul Hongdae Entrance is planned to start construction in 2023. Using this line, it is possible to reach Yeouido in about 20 minutes and Seoul Station in about 30 minutes.

In Goyang Changneung, adjacent to Seoul's Eunpyeong-gu and Mapo-gu with excellent access to Seoul, 1,697 units will be supplied. Once the GTX-A line is completed, it will be possible to enter Gangnam in about 10 minutes, and through the Goyang-Seoul Eunpyeong urban railway (scheduled for completion in 2029) connecting Goyang City Hall Station to Saejeol Station on Line 6, it will be possible to reach Yeouido in about 30 minutes. Therefore, among real demand buyers, it is frequently mentioned as the first priority.

Expanded Pre-Sale Opportunities in Seoul and Other Areas Next Year

In the 2nd private pre-sale, a total of 3,324 units will be released in Incheon Geomdan and Pyeongtaek Godeok. Although relatively farther from Seoul compared to public sales, 94% of the total units are 84㎡ or larger, which are preferred by demanders, and 709 units of large sizes exceeding 100㎡ will also be supplied. Incheon Geomdan is convenient to access Seoul via Incheon Subway Line 1, and Pyeongtaek Godeok is also considered a highly demanded area.

Even if you do not win in this pre-sale, more opportunities will come next year. The government plans to supply a total of 70,000 units next year, including 32,000 public pre-sale units and 38,000 private pre-sale units. In particular, in the private sector, pre-sale subscriptions will be conducted for 4,000 units of the urban public housing complex projects promoted in Seoul.

Jeong Ji-young, CEO of I'm Happy and a subscription expert, said, "For those who do not qualify for special supply, Goyang Changneung seems to be a good choice, and Guri Galmae and Seongnam Geumto also have good locations," adding, "It was practically difficult for Seoul residents to win pre-sale subscriptions this year, but next year, as private pre-sales and the Subangsa site in Seoul are released, opportunities are expected to increase."
