Recently, there has been a new topic in the North-South dispute-the balcony.
Some people say that you can tell whether the family is from the south or the north from the balcony or not.
Northerners: If you don’t include a balcony, it’s so cold and dusty in winter that you can’t wipe it every day.
Southerners: Pack the balcony, how damp it is, the clothes are dry or left out by the wind? It is better to open the balcony and let the wind blow through the hall.
Unexpectedly, balconies have become a regional problem?
Let’s first take a look at why the north has balconies, while the south is mostly open balconies.
The reason for the balcony in the north is very simple. It is cold and dry in winter, and the outside air is not good. There is often sand and haze. If the balcony is not sealed, it is not conducive to keeping warm and not conducive to drying clothes. It gets dirty easily.
So, in the north, developers generally wrap the balcony to make it easier to dry clothes. In addition, there is a heater or underfloor heating at home, and there is no need to sunbathe on the balcony(north winter sunshine is not good). Therefore, the balcony in the north is encapsulated and the area is relatively small.
North balcony
The south is not the case. Because the air is relatively humid, it is often used as an outside balcony to increase ventilation for drying clothes. You can also put a chair on it and sit on it to bask in the sun.
Southern balcony
Actually, balconies are not entirely dependent on different regions. Now in order to increase the indoor area, many balconies are also covered in the south.
To dry clothes is to lean against balconies and windows and extend long clothes poles.
There are also balconies in the south

For whether to include a balcony(in some places it is called a closed balcony), we have to look at it dialectically.
First of all, as a pure northerner, I have never seen a balcony without a balcony in the north. Even if it is completely enclosed, it will be a layer of dust without cleaning. If it doesn’t, I guess I have to sweep the snow and ice on the balcony in winter, and I can’t dry the clothes. That’s too inconsistent with the living conditions, so we mainly say that the South does not include the balcony.
First, let’s talk about the advantages of the balcony: windproof, rainproof, dustproof, noiseproof, and warm. It is safer for owners with children at home, not to mention a few square meters of use space, which can be extra Make oneSmall rooms.
For example, the balcony can be made into a small study room.
For another example, the balcony can be made into a simple dining room with tables and chairs. Or install washing machines, lockers, etc. to increase the storage area.
But there are also big disadvantages of balconies:
Because open balconies are commonly used in the south, the types of balconies privately packaged by the owners will be very different. In addition, some of them are packaged and some are not. The overall look is very inconsistent. This kind of building is external The surface will be ugly.
Look at this balcony. The mess is so ugly. Look at the following one. The uneven facade is really ugly.
The value of appearance is everything, and the ugly facade will directly devalue the property.
Compared with the photo of the private balcony above, is the visual impact very strong?
Some properties are very insistent on the external façade and do not allow private balconies, so even if they are in a lawsuit with the owner, they must restore the original façade. Such a community is very conspicuous in a community with a private balcony, and the property value preservation is very good.
In addition to the ugly exterior facade that will cause the property to depreciate, the privately packaged balcony also has a very serious defect, because it has not been quality tested, the quality may not meet the standard, and the safety is very worrying.
This is not just nonsense, it was just a piece of news that came out during the typhoon season this year.
In August of this year, when Typhoon Hagupit crossed the border, a resident in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province fell to his death when he got up and looked at the balcony window on the east side of the house. Local officials reported that the typhoon lasted for a long time and the wind was strong. The maximum instantaneous wind force reached 16 levels. The closed balcony windows of the resident’s house transformed from an open balcony were not strong enough, causing damage to the doors and windows.
Severe typhoons are not a small probability event in some places. Although it is rare to directly scrape off the balcony, scraping off the glass is often heard.
Packing a balcony has both advantages and disadvantages. Owners tend to care about one of them and make decisions, and the opinions of the owners of the same community are also very different, which has caused endless disputes about the balcony.
Especially because balconies may be unsightly and the value of the community may depreciate, causing owners who do not include balconies to be very dissatisfied with owners who do not include balconies.
But the person who has the balcony has something to say: “I have my balcony, what’s the matter?”
No wonder, whether to include a balcony is a problem of the century.

Nowadays, in some cities, there are many developers who collectively contractThe balcony. Private package does not mean compliance. If the area is not calculated truthfully, it is a manifestation of stealing area, and it is found to be punished or demolished according to local administrative regulations.
In first- and second-tier cities, developers often make open balconies, and most of them are privately packaged by the owners.
So, is it legal to privately pack a balcony?
Article 71 of the “Property Law” stipulates that “owners have the right to possess, use, benefit from, and dispose of the exclusive parts of their buildings. The exercise of the rights by the owners shall not endanger the safety of the building and shall not harm the lawful rights and interests of other owners. .”
Open balconies generally have a free area, which means that the balconies cannot fully allow the owners to exercise their power. And the most important thing is the last sentence: The owner’s exercise of rights must not endanger the safety of the building, and must not harm the legitimate rights and interests of other owners.
Packing a balcony may cause damage to the building, which endangers the building. If it affects the appearance of the facade, it will also damage the legitimate rights and interests of other owners.
Therefore, in terms of property law alone, it is still very controversial to package balcony. Therefore, there are different judgments on disputes arising from private balcony, and it is not the right of the owner to decide that the balcony is not owned.
One more thing, some developers and owners have contractual provisions when handing over the house.
Real estate contract
If the developer and the owner agree upon and get the approval of most owners, it is unreasonable that the private balcony cannot be supported by other owners.
Since different people have different needs, try to avoid conflicts in order to live comfortably. After all, it is difficult to change the neighbor’s thoughts, but we can unify the neighbor’s thoughts with ourselves.
Let’s first consider how to choose a house for buyers who don’t want to include a balcony.
If the budget is sufficient, you can choose a house with a good location and good location, where people value the appreciation potential. In this way, most of the surrounding neighbors are also people who value the value of the house. Naturally, they do not want their own interests to be damaged, and the developers and subsequent properties in the community will be relatively strong.
Take Shanghai as an example. For houses with higher value, the appearance of the facade is more important.
If the budget is limited, you can start with the apartment types. If there are more large apartment types in the community, the subsequent owners may not go to wrap the balcony. Or judge whether the residential property is strong or not based on the previous residential buildings that have been built, and then choose the right residence. Then there is the aforementioned look at the developers, some developers themselves firmly do not allow the owners to buy balconies.
For those who want to pack a balcony, they can ask about the balcony when signing the contract with the developer in the early stage.
For rigid-demand houses with a large number of small and medium-sized units, the owners will be more concerned about the usable area. In addition, most young couples who have just worked for a few years may bring a child, and they will also pay more attention to the safety of the child.
At this time, it may become the choice of most people to pack a balcony, and the industry committee will also support this.
However, it also depends on local administrative regulations. Installation must be carried out legally.
You must first go to the planning office, urban management and other departments for approval, and then seek the consent of the community owner, residents and properties, etc. before the package can be packaged, and the harmony and beauty of the entire facade must also be considered. Otherwise, the relevant department may notify the removal.

Some people joked that the use of balcony would make people feel that the quality of the residents in this community is not high, and the property management is not good. This is a bit biased.
Actually, whether the balcony is included or not is, in the final analysis, a problem of the usable area. If the area is large enough, then it is likely that you will not care about this area on the balcony.
In 2006, a “90/70” policy was introduced.
It stipulates that “since June 1, 2006, for all newly approved and newly started commercial housing constructions, housing with a building area of less than 90 square meters (including affordable housing)The proportion of the area must be more than 70% of the total area of development and construction.
Therefore, for the projects that opened after that, the units of 90 square meters and below occupy most of the new housing market.
Although this policy makes residential products more reasonable and allows more people to buy good houses, it is a good policy for the entire real estate market, but the actual situation is not consistent with people’s demand for houses.
Many people think that a 90-square-meter house is too awkward. There is no place to stand, and a 100-square-meter house is comfortable. When the area is controlled, people can only think of ways to increase their use area and make their lives more comfortable. Therefore, small-sized mid-package balconies are more common.
This is due to actual demand, and the owner cannot be completely blamed for the balcony.
So, what do you think about the balcony? Do you prefer to include the balcony or not?
