For the group of projects without legal problems, investors and home buyers have not submitted documents with 30,061 files. According to the law, after completing the investment, construction and acceptance of works at housing development projects, investors or home buyers submit documents to resolve the procedures for granting certificates to home buyers at the City Land Registration Office. Therefore, there are no problems with the 30,061 files of this group.

The Department of Agriculture and Environment has directed the City Land Registration Office to promptly receive and process procedures for granting certificates for applications submitted by home buyers at the project.

For the new real estate group with 8,918 apartments in 29 projects, t Based on the provisions of the new Land Law 2024 regulating the granting of certificates to home buyers of officetels and shophouses in commercial housing development projects, this group has been 100% removed.

Proposing the Department of Construction to propose solutions for houses with "stuck" pink books

Regarding projects that have not been granted certificates due to problems related to the implementation of social housing obligations according to Directive 07/2003 of the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee, the Department of Agriculture and Environment said that according to current regulations, the contents related to the implementation of social housing and housing obligations according to Directive 07 belong to the functions and tasks of the Department of Construction.

The Department of Agriculture and Environment, as the standing agency of Working Group 5013, requested the Department of Construction to promptly report and recommend to the City People's Committee a common solution to this problem according to the reported content.

According to Tuoi Tre Online 's investigation, many people who have bought apartments in projects do not know when they will receive the certificates even though they have paid 100% of the purchase price and have lived there for many years. However, because the investor has not fulfilled the obligation to reserve 20% of the land fund to build housing for low-income people (social housing) according to Directive No. 07, many projects are stuck with pink books.
