Ventura proposes emergency housing measures in Portugal
The Chega party has announced an emergency legislative package for housing, which includes increasing income tax deductions for rent and mortgage payments by 50 percent, a reassessment of tax benefits for high-end property buyers, and a review of Municipal Property Tax (IMI). Party leader André Ventura stated that the proposal aims to address housing affordability even if it risks a budget deficit, and suggested these measures could be conditional for future legislative support.
