Hyundai Engineering & Construction (Hyundai E&C) announced Monday that Hillstate Hoeryongyeok Parkview, located in Howon-dong, Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi Province, published its publicly supported private rental apartment subscription notice Thursday, kicking off the formal leasing process.

The complex spans 12 buildings rising from 3 below-ground floors to 33 above-ground floors and comprises 1,816 units with exclusive use areas ranging from 39 to 84 square meters. Of those, 909 units — with exclusive use areas of 49, 59 and 84 square meters — are designated as publicly supported private rental units: 182 through special supply and 727 through general supply.

Publicly supported private rental housing refers to long-term rental units built by private construction companies with financial backing from public sources such as the National Housing and Urban Fund, with lease terms of up to 10 years. Hillstate Hoeryongyeok Parkview offers the same stability, allowing residents to stay for up to a decade. Rent increases are capped at 5 percent per two-year lease renewal cycle, shielding tenants from sharp swings in surrounding jeonse prices. Rental deposits are backed by a guarantee from the Korea Housing and Urban Guarantee Corporation (HUG), adding a layer of financial security.

Rental housing does not count toward homeownership status, meaning residents can maintain their non-homeowner eligibility and accumulate apartment subscription points while living there — a useful stepping stone toward eventually buying a home. The complex is already completed, so move-in is available immediately.

Any South Korean national aged 19 or older may apply regardless of region of residence, with one application permitted per household. Specific eligibility requirements for special supply and other supply categories must be confirmed separately.

The complex sits roughly 3 kilometers in a straight line from the Seoul city boundary. Howon-dong is considered one of the more accessible neighborhoods within Uijeongbu for commuters heading into Seoul, and the area is well served by everyday amenities.

The complex is within walking distance of Hoeryong Station, served by Seoul Subway Line 1 and the Uijeongbu Light Rail Transit, placing Dobongsan Station just two stops away. Major business districts in Seoul — including City Hall and Gangnam-gu Office — are reachable in around 40 minutes. Proximity to the Seoul Ring Expressway and the East Coast Arterial Road also makes the complex convenient for drivers traveling across the greater metropolitan area.

GTX-C line service is being planned for Uijeongbu Station, one stop from Hoeryong Station. Once operational, the line would connect to Samsung Station in five stops in roughly 20 minutes, significantly improving access to Gangnam. Additional infrastructure projects in the pipeline include the Hoeryong interchange linking Howon Middle School to Seobu-ro, the underground extension of the East Coast Arterial Road, and the Seoul–Yangju expressway, all of which are expected to further improve transport conditions in the area.

Subscriptions open Tuesday, with results announced Friday. No housing subscription account is required to apply, and the subscription fee is 1 million won ($736). The leasing promotion center is located at Unit 112 in the commercial space within the Hillstate Hoeryongyeok Parkview complex in Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi Province, and opened Friday.
