Western Network News (reporters Ma Qingru and Song Yang) Today (July 29) afternoon, the Shaanxi Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference held a monthly consultation meeting on "promoting the healthy development of the housing rental market in our province."
Tenant representative Li Jie, an ordinary employee of Shaanxi Construction Engineering First Group No. 7 Company, is now working as the project foreman of the Xi'an International Football Center project and has moved four times in the past two years in Xi'an.
"I graduated in 2019, and the first thing I faced with my graduation internship was to rent a house, but the first time I rented a house, I had no experience, and I ran from community to community." Li Jie said that at first he wanted to live in a place with convenient transportation and high housing quality, but because of the low and irregular income of the recent graduate, he was scared off by the high rent, and finally he could only choose a relatively remote relocation house, but fortunately the room was a two-bedroom and one-living room new house, 1600 yuan in January.
Half a year later, the contract expired, Li Jie wanted to renew, the rent rose directly to 2600 yuan, helpless, he could only choose to find a new house. Listening to friends say that Xi'an's "South Kiln Head" urban village, the foothold of young people, rent is not expensive, traffic is developed, Li Jie still remembers the past to see the house into the corridor, a sour smell came to the face, frowned after looking at the house, and finally he was defeated by reality.
The room fee is cheap, the traffic is developed, you can bet one to pay one, but after really living in it, Li Jie's heart is cold and cool, the top floor is cold in winter and hot in summer, and he still remembers the mood of paying the room bill and water and electricity bills that month, the room fee is 800 yuan, the water and electricity bill is 746 yuan, and the commercial water and electricity bill and the room fee are almost the same. Immediately after the roof leak, the air conditioning ventilation pipe outlet leaks, the bathroom water pressure is insufficient, reflected to the landlord does not solve the problem.
"The memory is still fresh is August to December 2019, from summer to winter, from small fans to electric mattresses, the air conditioning remote control is not dare to take a hit, and finally was defeated by the leak, forced to move, before leaving the good words, the deposit was not refunded. Later, I reluctantly found a 5th floor to move in on another street. Li Jie said.
After the end of 2020, thinking about the new year and new atmosphere, but the heavens and Li Jie made a joke, the outbreak of the epidemic, trapped for more than 3 months did not go out, the room bill was owed and owed, and when the company resumed work in April, the company went out of business again, and he felt helpless and desperate. Until coming to Shaanxi Construction, eating and living in the project, the company provided accommodation, which is also a solution to his two years of rental history.
Li Jie said that after renting for several years, he also found some problems: most rental houses can only rent for one year, which is not suitable for the life of groups with unstable work; the rental environment is poor, the quality of housing is not guaranteed, and commercial utility bills have increased the pressure on renting; landlords lack supervision, and the situation of arbitrary rent increases is common.
This peace of mind is my home. Li Jie said that for them in the "West Drift", no one can escape the important link - renting, and with it, black intermediaries, bad landlords, strange roommates, rising rents... Behind every word, there are the hardships of life and the hardships of renting. It is hoped that the government can strengthen supervision and rectify the rental market, and hope that the city of Xi'an can get better and better, so that all young people in the "West Drift" can stay and work with peace of mind and integrate into the city.
