Recently, a series of advertisements for a real estate project in the North West of HCM City with complete traffic facilities, connected to District 1, Ho Chi Minh City only 35 minutes motorbike, full construction project Functions such as parks, amusement parks, supermarkets ... Even the project is open for sale in many phases in large conference centers of Ho Chi Minh City.

However, in fact, this project is located in an inter-district route of Duc Hoa district, Long An province, ten kilometers from Ho Chi Minh City.

"Read the ad I was surprised because the project is only nearly 500 million VND / 60 m2 land, full facilities of high-grade urban area. Contact, the consultant invited to the trading floor in Tan Binh district, but the results, the project is located in Duc Hoa district, Long An province, "said Nguyen Van An, resident of Phu Nhuan district.

The story of advertising in the ads also took place in the project in Binh Chanh district, HCM City when the investor of the project M advertising is located in District 8, but when the customer makes a purchase contract, it turns out The project is located in Binh Chanh district ...

In addition to "moving" the project location, developers are also included in the project level ad. For example, at the Saigonres Plaza project, Nguyen Xy street, Binh Thanh district is invested by Nam Do Real Estate Company, although it has been in operation for 5 months, but apartment furniture such as bathroom, lavabo , Faucets ... have seriously deteriorated, while at the opening of the project, investors advertising to use high ToTo.

When the residents reflect and ask the owner to replace the furniture, the owner issued a document stating that the furniture was sent by the owner to the factory in China to buy.

Or recently, at a project in Binh Tan District, HCMC, hundreds of households reacted strongly to the owner and said that their home is not as advertised.

"When we bought a house we were introduced to each block with 3 lifts. Even in the catalog, images of the project also show this. However, when buying houses and moving in, we are not surprised, even pressing when each block has only two months, "said Bui Thuy Hien, a buyer of this project urgent.

The representative of the investor then responded to the press that the print of elevator 3 was due to ... a typographical error, the design of the project was only two lifts.

The ads are not only in the above projects, but also in many other projects, even projects that are classified only medium-level apartment, but when the sale, the owner of the advertising. Up to the senior.

For example, a project in District 9, Ho Chi Minh City, in advertising information, as well as on the web are said to be high-end projects, but customers found out, according to the classification law of apartment buildings of the Ministry In construction, the project is of intermediate level only. Finally, the owner has modified the apartment "most modern District 9".

Also due to the importation between high grade apartment building, Ministry of Construction has to issue Circular No. 31/2016 / TT-BXD on classification of apartment building. The purpose of classifying condominiums for the Ministry of Construction to determine the value of condominiums when conducting management or trading in the market. After the effective date of Circular 31, it immediately corrected the fraudulent project promoters, inflated project utility, false owner of the project.

Home buyers bear enough

Pham Tuyet Ngan, a resident of Thu Duc District, tells his sad story about buying a house in Ho Chi Minh City.

Ms. Ngan said her husband from Hung Yen, in Ho Chi Minh City, 2014, so that children have a passport book City to easy to school, they decided to buy a house, but for little money, should find the basis Which households are cheap to buy.

After a few days of searching, they found a project on Pham Van Dong Street in Thu Duc District for just over 800 million dong. She decided not to read the contract carefully before signing, so when she got the house and papers, she discovered that her project was located in Binh Duong.

"According to the law, I have to have a house in Ho Chi Minh City, so we have just bought a house so that our children have a permanent residence permit. But now housing in Binh Duong, we have a household registration in Binh Duong, how my child has a residence in Ho Chi Minh City that school.

Responding to the owner, they explained, because I did not carefully read the contract, while advertising the project in Ho Chi Minh City, because the project is across the Pham Van Dong is in Binh Duong, this side is of Ho Chi Minh City, so they advertise so easy to imagine, "Ngan said.

Trinh Hoai Linh, Director of Code Arch Interior Decoration and Construction Company, said that this is a way to advertise not to advertise high quality furniture for projects worth less than 1.6 billion dong. true. With the project selling from only 1 to 1.6 billion that advertising the use of high-grade furniture is a bit unusual.

When you pick up your home, it is true that customers will see high-end interior brands in their home, but these furniture are degraded, because of the poor quality of Chinese furniture.

"Chinese goods usually come in two varieties, one produced from a large factory, according to the standards of foreign companies located in China, or commonly known as Chinese manufactured cities. The second type is the small companies, in the provinces of China manufacturing clones, commonly known as Chinese rural goods.

In particular, the Chinese city will have high prices set by the parent company abroad, and the Chinese rural areas are cheap, the model is not different from the city, so many investors buy cheap ham Installation for his project, "Ms. Linh said.

Le Hoang Chau, Chairman of the HCM City Real Estate Association, said that nowadays, in the market, a number of investors for the purpose of selling but always labeled "luxury project", "Luxury" "World class project". However, when entering the new home buyers feel these high-end projects completely different from the reality.

Therefore, Chau petition, Ministry of Construction should promulgate regulations do not allow investors to promote the project with the word luxury as luxury, luxury, class.

It is a good idea to issue a regulation when selling a house in the future, investors are only allowed to introduce the most basic information of the project such as location, area, utility. And the self-styled names of investors such as luxury, class, luxury let the home buyer rating, "said Chau.

Lawyer Pham Dinh Tuan, Ho Chi Minh City Bar Association said that the Advertising Law and the Penal Code adjust the behavior of false advertising with fines ranging from administrative penalties to criminal liability. In cases where the advertisement is untrue and full of signs of "fraudulent advertisement" as prescribed by the Penal Code, the competent agency shall base on the nature and extent of the danger. Apply appropriate criminal remedies.

"Although the Criminal Code has so defined, in practice, no broker or broker has ever been fined, even though it was an administrative fine for misleading advertising behavior." Mr. Tuan said.
