Government wants to accelerate the transfer of 83,000 state-owned properties to municipalities

The Minister of Infrastructure and Housing stated the government is working to speed up the transfer of over 83,000 public properties to municipalities to increase affordable housing supply. Of these, approximately 30,000 are rural and ineligible for residential conversion. The government also targets an annual construction capacity of 70,000 to 80,000 homes by 2031, acknowledging the current housing crisis requires interim social support.
