B. Sagintayev: 2000 housing certificates will be issued to large families and low-income families in Almaty
During the reporting meeting, a mother with several children asked when they would be able to receive housing.
In addition, within the framework of the Bakytty otbasy program, concessional loans for housing are provided at 2% per annum. In this case, the assessment of solvency in Otbasy Bank is carried out in a simplified manner. The program participant must prove income to pay the monthly loan payment and the minimum living amount of 5 monthly notional units per adult. Expenses for children are not included in the assessment of ability to pay.
The head of the city, Bakhytzhan Sagintayev, noted that the issue of allocating funding from the local budget for "housing certificates" is being considered to cover part of the initial payment on mortgages and when purchasing primary housing.
“This issue is under our control. We already know how many houses will be provided, each Almaty resident monitors his queue electronically and sees who will be provided with a house. There are no secrets. Our work to speed up the queues was included in this year's budget, we will issue a housing certificate to mothers of large families. If they buy housing through Otbasy Bank, then we have allocated 2 billion tenge for the initial payment. 2000 families will be able to get help, ”Bakhytzhan Sagintayev said.
This payment is provided for the following categories: large families; families with or raising disabled children; orphans; disabled persons of the 1st, 2nd categories.
Let us recall, that over the past 3 years, more than 10 thousand Almaty families have received apartments. Of these, more than 1.3 thousand apartments were allocated from the city housing stock, and more than 8 thousand were distributed on preferential mortgages. Almost 40% of those who received housing are from socially vulnerable categories: over 2.3 thousand large and single-parent families, about 600 people with disabilities, over 300 orphans.
