Tougher crackdown on property rental abuse 2017-01-20
MORE than 500 cases of illegal construction and group rental — multiple tenants staying in one property — were recorded in Shanghai residents’ credit account in 2016, the city’s housing authority said yesterday.
The offenses registered in the personal credit accounts of offenders would affect applications for the city’s residence permit, as well as bank loans, job promotions and traveling abroad, said Gu Jinshan, director of Shanghai’s Housing and Urban-Rural Development Administration.
The violations being recorded include illegal construction in residential communities, group rental, illegal parking in neighborhoods and the demolishing of load-bearing walls, Gu said at the sideline of the annual session of Shanghai People’s Congress.
