Rising Trend in Gangwon-do Amid Real Estate Slump... 'Wonju Innovation City Useunghan Naedeul The Sky' Now Accepting First-Come, First-Served Unit Designation Contracts View original image

Despite the recent economic downturn, the real estate market in Gangwon Province is showing signs of recovery.


According to KB Real Estate, the average apartment sale price in Gangwon increased by 5.83% last year. While the nationwide average fell by 3.12% and Seoul saw a 2.96% decline amid economic recession and a transaction freeze causing a nationwide housing price drop, Gangwon Province appears to have successfully defended its prices.


This upward trend was also confirmed in the subscription market. According to the Korea Real Estate Board, at the end of last year, the “Gangneung Gyodong Kumho Eoullim Olympic Park” attracted a total of 2,134 applications for 235 units, achieving a top competition rate of 20.7 to 1 and closing all units in the first subscription round. Earlier, in November last year, “Ayajin La Mer Desiang” in Goseong-gun, Gangwon, also closed subscriptions within the ranking with about 3,000 subscription accounts for 712 units.


The positive momentum is expected to continue. Market interest rates have slightly decreased, and mortgage loan rates at commercial banks have entered the 6% range at the upper end, easing the burden of soaring rates. With somewhat lower rates and a forecast of downward stabilization, housing demanders are likely to consider investment or home purchase strategies, leading to further activation of the Gangwon pre-sale market.
