Yeongdeungpo-gu Surpasses 6,000 Counseling and Educational Sessions at Redevelopment Consultation Centers

Free Special Lecture on "Calculation of the Right Value" to Be Held on August 21

The counseling and educational session records at the redevelopment and reconstruction consultation centers operated by Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul (headed by Mayor Jo Yoojin), have surpassed 6,000 cases. The district will hold a free special lecture on “Calculation of the Right Value” on August 21.

According to Yeongdeungpo-gu on August 19, the district is a representative area in Seoul with a high concentration of maintenance projects, where 107 redevelopment and reconstruction projects are being carried out simultaneously. Due to the diverse types of housing projects underway—such as community housing associations, remodeling, fast-track integrated planning redevelopment, urban public housing complex projects, and Moa Town—residents have faced difficulties understanding and participating in these initiatives.

In response, the district operates two consultation centers staffed with professional counselors. The Singil 1 Center is located on the first floor of the Singil 5-dong Community Center, while the Mullae 2 Center is on the second floor of the Mokhwa Village Activity Center. The two centers have conducted a total of 5,690 counseling sessions for residents, including 4,803 by phone and 887 in-person visits. In addition, 34 maintenance project lectures have been held, with 776 students completing the programs.

This month’s special lecture will be held on August 21 at 4:00 p.m. at the YDP Future Lifelong Learning Center, focusing on “Calculation of the Right Value.” An active appraisal expert will serve as the instructor, explaining why the right value can differ even among units in the same complex or with similar sizes, and the underlying calculation principles. Any resident interested in maintenance projects may participate free of charge. Applications and inquiries can be made at Singil 1 Center (02-842-3001) or Mullae 2 Center (02-2671-4001).

Beginning in the second half of the year, the district will also operate the “Redevelopment and Reconstruction Fast Progress Support Team,” in which both relevant public officials and field specialists participate. The goal is to resolve initial-stage conflicts early on, thereby accelerating project progress.

Mayor Jo Yoojin stated, “Our consultation centers have acted as reliable guides for maintenance projects, having provided over 6,000 counseling and educational sessions for residents. Moving forward, we will continue to actively support resident-centered maintenance projects under the principle of being ‘prompt and proper’ at each redevelopment and reconstruction site.”
