Markets widely expect the Bank of Korea to raise rates on Thursday, a move likely to cool the Korean property market. Redevelopment and reconstruction projects, which typically require large resettlement loans and run about a decade, would be hit directly—most relocation loans are floating-rate, so a hike could immediately raise additional contribution payments and delay projects. Nam Hyuk-woo, real estate researcher at Woori Bank, warned that a rate rise combined with banks tightening lending and cutting quotas would create a double squeeze: weaker purchasing power for genuine buyers and wider bank lending spreads. High-priced, investor-concentrated areas along the Han River and in Gangnam are also likely to be affected.
