Subdivision of plots, division of plots massively

The most prominent information on the real estate market in the first months of the year is that a series of localities such as Hanoi, Binh Phuoc, Lam Dong… have temporarily suspended the division of plots and parcels of land related to agricultural land. Because the act of buying and collecting land, then arbitrarily dividing it into small lots, selling it with the names of projects, housing areas… not only disturbs the market, but also causes many people to fall into the trap of “ghost projects” “. However, some localities and experts believe that temporarily stopping the separation of parcels is not enough.

Creating fake scarcity, creating “virtual fever”, hitting “greedy” are tricks brokers have used to entice customers to buy ghost projects. In essence, these are parcels of land mixed with residential land, forest land, and agricultural land, purchased by an individual or organization, and then taken advantage of the regulations allowing for subdivision of plots and parcels to subdivide and sell to customers. goods, although many lots have never been issued a red book.

Some victims shared that they rushed to pay all the money, without even checking the legality of the project.

“The reason I made a 100% deposit was because the investor promised to give me 1 gold tree. 1 gold tree was estimated at 45 million. I was more profitable, so I accumulated the money because I thought it would be paid sooner or later. Time I researched too short and trusted the floor too much,” said Ms. Nguyen Thi Thoan, Hanoi.

“Actually, many investors inflated the price, while many people who came to buy land did not fully understand it. We warn that it is not a project, it is a self-divided plot,” said Khuat Van Xuyen, Chairman of the Co Dong Commune People’s Committee. , Son Tay town, Hanoi, said.

Records from the market show that, in the past 4 years, the situation of subdivision, division of parcels, arbitrarily advertising as a housing project, even without permission from the authorities, has taken place. flourished in many localities.

Inadequacies in the management of subdivision and plot separation

In fact, the tightening of subdivisions, division of plots, even temporary suspension of transfer, or change of land use purpose has been practiced by some localities such as Van Don (Quang Ninh), Van Phong (Khanh Hoa), or Phu Quoc (Kien Giang), Bac Giang … applied in certain times, when there is a hot fever situation in these localities, land prices increase rapidly. Some localities have suggested that there should be a change in the management of the current land plot division and separation.

A little while ago, Phu Quoc was the first locality to ban subdivision and division of parcels to prevent the disturbance of the real estate market. However, the local government said that this is only a temporary solution, there needs to be a change in the provisions of the current law.

Sharing from the locality shows that, according to the current provisions of the 2013 Land Law, although district, ward and commune authorities manage the construction and status of land, the division of plots and land parcels (plots) large land, divided into small lots), together with the change of land use purpose, belongs to the exclusive authority of the land registration office, under the Department of Natural Resources and Environment.

“Without close coordination between the Department of Natural Resources and Environment and the City People’s Committee and the district administration, the situation of subdivision and division of agricultural land will still be complicated and unpredictable. soon to be revised,” said Mr. Huynh Quang Hung, Chairman of the People’s Committee of Phu Quoc City.

This is an opinion that is agreed by some other localities. Typically, in Co Dong commune, Son Tay town, Hanoi, investors buy and collect land, then directly carry out the procedures to separate the plot and change the land use purpose at the land office, the Department of Natural Resources and Environment. Environment. Commune People’s Committees are not aware of this process. The commune only knows when there is a notice of land change from the Department.

I don’t do it anymore,” emphasized Vice Chairman of the Vietnam Real Estate Association Nguyen Van Dinh.

“The tightening of the subdivision of plots to sell the ground is to ensure that the source of goods is brought to the market properly and legally. Investors must slow down a step, must be slow,” lawyer Truong Anh Tuan, Head of the Legal Department, Association Real Estate Vietnam, said.
