Chairman of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce: If we compare the country with Turkey, we will realize that we are far behind this country.

According to the International Exhibition of Iranian Stone, Massoud Khansari at the signing ceremony of the memorandums of the National Housing Production Action Plan, which was held today in the presence of the Minister of Roads and Urban Development, stated that the country's GDP at the end of last year was estimated at 2,500 billion tomans. , Stated: The capital market is estimated at six thousand billion tomans and the housing market is estimated at fifteen thousand billion tomans. In fact, the housing market is two and a half to three times the housing market.

According to him, the real growth of housing investment in 1397 was negative three and four percent and last year was negative nine and four percent.

The head of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce stated that there are three sectors of housing, clothing and food in the economy of each country: the housing sector in Iran, although it could have grown, has been negative in the last two years.

"Housing can attract good domestic and foreign investors," Khansari said. "We need to look at why we can't attract investors." We saw the construction of industrial housing in 1350 (Ekbatan), but when we compare the country with Turkey today, we realize that we are far behind.

Referring to the renovation of worn-out tissues, he said: "Weary tissues also need serious work." Of course, some steps have been taken, but not as they should be and maybe. Except for 1994 and during the discussion of Nawab renovation. After that, no serious work was done.

The head of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce continued: "The Chamber of Commerce has proposed several times and announced its readiness to participate in this field, but so far this has not happened." In the housing sector, the bulk of investment is made by the private sector, and the role of the private and public sectors is less. So if the policy is set in time, it can be the driving force behind the country.

Khansari said that construction in the country is traditional after 40 years, adding that if a residential project in Tehran wants to start working, it will take at least a year to get a license. The engineering system is a slow-moving factor, and all costs are imposed on the building's square footage.

He continued: "We have a duty to provide housing for the middle class, but construction and rental costs are rising day by day."
