The opinions of the owners are not unified, and the low-rise residents disagree, so it is difficult to coordinate the cost sharing ratio. ...

These factors often hinder the pace of renovation of old residential areas. The high upfront cost of installing elevators has also become the biggest obstacle for the owners to make up their minds to install them.

Various solutions have been explored for the funding problem. Some places plan to provide financial subsidies, loans and provident fund support for the installation of elevators, and some cities propose a paid use lease model.

According to Xinhua News Agency reported on September 2, the reporter learned from Yinchuan Housing Provident Fund Management Center that in order to encourage the installation of elevators in old residential areas, the policy of "existing residential owners can withdraw housing provident fund to pay for the installation of elevators" officially landed.

Yinchuan owners can raise the provident fund to install elevators.

Elevator installation in existing houses generally raises funds through self-financing by owners, government incentives and subsidies, social capital investment and other channels. According to Xinhua News Agency, Yinchuan City allows owners to apply for the use of housing provident fund or special maintenance funds for houses to pay the expenses that individuals need to share when installing elevators in their communities.

Yinchuan Housing Provident Fund Management Center further clarified that for residential quarters that meet the relevant requirements for elevator installation and have gone through relevant planning and construction procedures, owners and their spouses who did not have housing provident fund loans and did not handle the withdrawal business in that year may apply for housing provident fund withdrawal.

When withdrawing the provident fund, the qualified owners should not only carry ID cards, house ownership certificates and other documents, but also provide the installation contract, letter of intent, fund allocation plan and invoices for actually paying the elevator installation fees.

The owner himself and his spouse can only withdraw 1 time within 3 years from the date indicated in the invoice for elevator installation, and the total amount of withdrawal cannot exceed the total amount of expenses to be shared for elevator installation.

Explore different models in many places

Every time Bian Xiao noticed, except Yinchuan, Chenghang and other cities have passed or are soliciting opinions, and it is planned to allow owners to withdraw provident fund as the funds for installing elevators.

In addition to the provident fund, many cities across the country are exploring other solutions, such as Shenyang, Xiamen and other places to implement financial subsidies for the installation of elevators; Shenzhen, Nanjing and other places have issued detailed rules to simplify the approval procedures for elevator installation; The introduction of social capital in Beijing and other places has replaced the owner's self-financing and self-construction model and become the "leasing model" for the owner to pay.

As early as 20 17, some old communities in big cities such as Beijing and Guangzhou completed the installation of elevators.

In No.5 Courtyard of Daliushu in Beixiaguan, Liubei Community, Beixiaguan Street, Beijing, the cost of installing an elevator of 240,000 yuan is subsidized by the state, and the residents pay the rent. The elevator company is responsible for renovation, installation and later maintenance, and residents pay a certain proportion to use it. High-level pay more, low-level pay less, and the first floor is free of charge, which avoids the huge cost of residents buying elevators at one time; In Guangzhou, owners can withdraw provident fund when installing elevators, and they will jointly contribute according to a certain proportion, which will be determined through consultation between * * * and the contributing owners; In Xiamen, the government pays 50% for installing elevators in old communities.

In Haidian District, Beijing, some old residential areas explore elevator leasing mode, which is voluntary by owners and funded by enterprises, free installation and paid use. Owners pay monthly fees, with an average of about 200 yuan per household per month, and elevator advertising revenue will effectively reduce the burden on owners.

In view of the problem that it is difficult to unify the opinions of the owners who install elevators, Jinan has established a review system for installing elevators in existing houses, which has created conditions for solving the differences of opinions of owners on installing elevators.

Elevator industry welcomes development space.

Xie Gang, secretary of the board of directors of Yuanda Intelligent, said in an interview with a reporter from Securities Daily that in his investigation, he found that the potential market demand for installing elevators in Shenyang alone is about 20,000, and the price of an elevator is 500,000-600,000 yuan, and the market scale is very considerable.

The research report released by Shenzhen-Hong Kong Securities shows that the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development conducted a thorough investigation in May this year. There are170,000 old urban areas to be rebuilt in China, involving about 42 million households, with a corresponding construction area of about 4 billion square meters. Based on the calculation of installing an elevator every 2000 square meters, the theoretical demand for installing elevators in existing houses in China is 2 million. In addition, at present, the number of elevators in China has reached 6.28 million, including about 260,000 elevators with a ladder age of more than 20 years. According to the calculation of Shenzhen-Hong Kong Securities, it is estimated that the total demand for elevators in 20 19 will be about 30,200. With the increasing demand for renewal, the proportion of future renewal will increase steadily. By 2030, the demand will reach about 250,000 units.

"At present, the funding problem may become a difficult and blocking point in the work. In the renovation costs, except for the funds subsidized by the government, the rest need to be paid by the residents themselves. Take the renovation of an old six-story building as an example. Excluding the construction cost, the elevator cost alone will cost 500,000-600,000 yuan. According to the current subsidy standard of Shenyang10.6 million yuan, the rest needs to be shared by residents themselves. "

There are three main problems in installing elevators.

For many owners, the demand for installing elevators in old buildings is very strong. However, in reality, there are still several difficulties in installing elevators in old communities, so the work of installing elevators in many places is slow.

First, it is difficult to apply for approval. Normative documents for installing elevators in some cities have not yet been issued. Previously, some residential residents and property companies in Suzhou found departments such as development and reform, housing construction, planning, etc., and no department accepted them and could not declare them. Some communities in Suzhou installed elevators privately, but due to factors such as incomplete approval procedures, relevant components were removed by the market supervision department and temporarily stopped using them.

Huang Zuhui, former deputy director of Wuhan Special Inspection Institute and elevator expert, said that elevator installation involves many departments, such as housing construction, planning, fire protection and urban management. When formulating elevator installation policies, local governments need to consider the formulation of elevator installation technical standards, government-led responsible departments, financial subsidy standards and so on. , involving a wide range, heavy workload. "But in the face of urgent people's livelihood needs, we should speed up policy support." He said.

Second, financing is difficult. Xinhuanet reporters in Nanjing, Wuhan and other places found that an old residential area installed an elevator, the general price is 400,000 to 600,000 yuan, including procurement and construction costs. Although many places have introduced financial subsidy policies, residents still have to bear most of the expenses. Many residents in the old community are retired people, and their income is not high. It is quite stressful to spend tens of thousands of dollars at a time.

In addition, the high cost of public services such as pipeline relocation is also an important reason for the high installation cost of elevators.

Third, it is difficult to coordinate the demands of the owners. The Property Law stipulates that the renovation and reconstruction of buildings and their ancillary facilities shall be approved by the owners whose exclusive parts account for more than two-thirds of the total building area and more than two-thirds of the total number of people. In Beijing, Guangzhou and Nanjing, more than two-thirds of the owners need to agree to add elevator units. However, in practice, there will often be a case where one household opposes the shelving of the whole building.
