📖 Easy Explanation

🔍 Background

With Seoul's housing prices soaring, the city is offering affordable homes by selling only the building and excluding land costs.

📌 Key Points

Magok's new 30-pyeong units cost around 400 million KRW. Since SH owns the land, residents pay a separate monthly land lease fee.

💡 Why It Matters

It's a great chance for first-time buyers to own a home in Seoul. However, resale conditions should be checked carefully.
