The initiative, whose primary beneficiaries are low-income retirees, will complement the Housing Solutions Program to make it more efficient and reduce waiting times and unmet demand.
Initially, up to 100 houses will be loaned out at 10 locations in the interior of the country; the first beneficiaries have already been determined.
Low-income retirees can pitch housing solutions they are interested in renting or choose from available options. For this reason, the BPS encourages property owners To the apartments they are offering.
The maximum amount of the benefit is determined by the average price of the rental market indicated by the National Institute of Statistics for the place where the rental is made, and the BPS covers the costs of the general costs.
According to Alfredo Cabrera, president of the BPS, it is an initiative to reduce the cost and construction times of houses.
Those who receive old-age or disability pensions, are pension or pension recipients, own property, participate in other housing programs or receive income above the legal limit will be excluded from the program, the BPS stressed.
