Propietarios de edad avanzada luchan contra los costes de reforma de pisos subdivididos

Algunos propietarios de edad avanzada en Hong Kong aseguran que no pueden costear reformas de hasta 400.000 HK$ para cumplir con las nuevas normativas. Es posible que se vean obligados a retirar del mercado unidades que se alquilan por 3.000 HK$ al mes.

Cuatro propietarios de pisos subdivididos en Sham Shui Po y Yau Ma Tei compartieron sus dificultades en una sesión con los medios el viernes. Se habían inscrito en el periodo de gracia bajo la Ordenanza de Unidades de Vivienda Básica, pero están teniendo problemas para cumplir con los requisitos.

Las estimaciones de los contratistas superaron ampliamente el rango de 25.000 a 51.000 HK$ por piso presentado por la Oficina de Vivienda la semana pasada. Wing-tse, una vendedora de periódicos jubilada de 81 años, señaló que los costes alcanzaron los 400.000 HK$ para reformar su piso de 800 pies cuadrados, dividido en cuatro unidades.

Wing-tse declaró: “Espero que el gobierno pueda ayudarme a encontrar un presupuesto mejor si conocen a estos contratistas de reformas”.
