Shenzhen Longfor Yuhujing Accused of '97 Quality Issues' After Handover; Housing Bureau Summons Developer

After Shenzhen Guangming District's Longfor Yuhujing was handed over in late 2025, at least 40 homeowners reported issues including wall seepage, hollow tiles, cracked window glass, and loose wooden floors; a third-party home inspection report listed 97 problems (9 serious). Homeowners accused the developer of rushing construction and "forcing handover"; Longfor responded that completion acceptance filing had been completed and that there was no "reduced-specification delivery." Impact and handling: the Guangming District Housing and Construction Bureau said its verification found no structural or functional reduction in specifications, but confirmed local construction quality defects; on March 28, 2026, it summoned the construction, contractor, and supervision units on site and ordered rectification unit by unit. As of July 2026, some homeowners still said leaking had not been fixed after half a year and they could not move in; the bureau said it would continue to supervise. Status: regulatory notification. Involved entity: Longfor Group Holdings Limited (developer of the Shenzhen Longfor Yuhujing project). Scope: Longfor Yuhujing project in Guangming District, Shenzhen.
