Various departments in Beijing carried out a joint operation to clean up over 17,000 pieces of illegal information related to off-the-market housing leasing.
In November 2025, some residents reported encountering "black intermediaries" when renting a house in a certain residential area in Beijing. In response, the Beijing police organized relevant police forces to set up a special task force to conduct investigation and disposal. After investigation, it was found that after Wang established a certain housing leasing company in September 2024, he used the company's name to solicit rental properties in multiple residential areas and acted as a "second landlord" to sublet them. After renting out the houses, the company made various demands on the tenants such as heating fees, property management fees, air conditioning installation fees, etc., which were not mentioned in the lease contract. They intentionally avoided answering the phone when the tenants intended to renew the lease, creating the illusion of tenant breach of contract in order to profit illegally by collecting substantial penalties. Based on a comprehensive understanding of the criminal organization structure, personnel situation, and criminal methods, the police organized a concentrated operation and successfully captured Wang and several other criminal suspects. Currently, those involved have been criminally detained in accordance with the law.
