The largest social housing initiative in the history of the Republic, "The Century's Housing Project," has identified the districts where 500,000 social housing units will be built in 81 provinces.
A LETTER WAS SENT TO GOVERNORATES
With a letter sent to the governorates at the beginning of this year, signed by the Minister of Environment, Urbanization, and Climate Change, Murat Kurum, the process of identifying land suitable for social housing construction was initiated.
In this context, the governorates were asked to identify properties that are primarily owned by the Treasury or municipalities, close to infrastructure and transportation facilities, and suitable in size for housing construction. Additionally, information and documents regarding areas that do not include agricultural, forest, irrigation regions, or protected areas were requested to be submitted to the Ministry.
2+1 AND 1+1 HOUSES WILL BE BUILT
As a result of the Ministry's evaluations, the number of housing units was determined based on the population density of the provinces, aiming to balance housing prices and enable low-income citizens to become homeowners under "The Century's Housing Project."
The houses will be constructed by the Housing Development Administration (TOKİ) in 2+1 and 1+1 formats, in accordance with horizontal architecture and traditional neighborhood fabric.
