Rising Interest in Dongnae Prugio Edufore Sales Amid Construction Cost Surge Projections

Dongnae Prugio Edufore, a new apartment complex constructed by Daewoo Engineering & Construction through the redevelopment of Anrak 1 District in Dongnae-gu, Busan, is attracting attention for its differentiated features. Amid a high likelihood of increased prices for newly launched apartments due to rising construction costs caused by the recent Middle East conflict, there are also projections that existing sales complexes could benefit from this as a side effect.

This new apartment complex is a large-scale branded development being supplied to the Anrak-dong area for the first time in a while. Reflecting the latest trends, a grand entrance gate has been installed, and some buildings feature rooftop structures with landscape lighting and distinctive sidewall designs. The interior layouts are diverse: the 74㎡A unit adopts a three-bay flat design, the 76㎡A unit features a tower configuration with an island kitchen, and the 84㎡A type is designed with a dual-aspect layout for greater openness.

Approximately 37% of the entire site is dedicated to a park-style landscaped area, creating a specialized landscaping design. The complex includes a three-dimensional community lounge and a circular walking trail at its center, with an emphasis on openness such as securing north-south sightlines. Shared amenities for residents include a fitness center, GX room, golf club, Pilates room, sauna, multipurpose cultural space, library, and shared office. Smart features will also be introduced, allowing residents to access building entrances and call elevators automatically via smartphone, along with a parking guidance system to help locate parking spots.

The complex is close to Sajik-dong, which boasts strong educational and cultural infrastructure, as well as Centum City, known for its shopping and convenience facilities. Numerous elementary, middle, and high schools are clustered nearby, allowing children to walk to school from kindergarten through high school. The old downtown area offers large supermarkets and medical facilities, ensuring a comfortable living environment, while convenient transportation is available via the Wondong Intersection and the Donghae Line, making travel within and outside the city easy. The model home is located in Udong, Haeundae-gu, Busan. Move-in is scheduled for March 2030.

Industry experts predict that the recent surge in construction costs following the war will impact all new apartments in the future. Due to disruptions in material supply, construction costs are inevitably rising, which could also lead to higher prices for new apartments. One industry source said, "With ongoing global instability and rising raw material prices, there are forecasts that prices for new housing supply complexes could climb further," adding, "There is growing interest among genuine homebuyers seeking to secure new apartments at reasonable prices."
