[Background]
In accordance with the "Plan to Improve the Management Fee System for Multi-Family Housing" (May 2026), this amendment aims to reduce management fees by promoting competitive bidding. This is achieved by rationalizing the targets for negotiated contracts (private contracts) and strengthening the requirements and establishing standards for limited competitive bidding. Additionally, it seeks to enhance public convenience by simplifying and clarifying bidding methods and procedures.
