With the Presidential Stroke of the Pen on July 13, a New Edition of the My House, My Life Program (MCMV) Came to Life and Brought with It a Revolution: Subsidy for the Acquisition of Urbanized Lots.
This initiative breaks with the tradition of financing only construction companies and gives the citizen the power to choose where they want to live. A significant step against the chronic problems of housing policies.
Urbanization and Quality of Life
It is common to see housing complexes springing up in remote areas without infrastructure. This scenario leads to the urban precariousness of the region. Now, with the inclusion of the urbanized lot in the MCMV, the beneficiary’s home is already born integrated into the city, being an active part of the urban fabric.
Financing and Barriers
The current prohibition on financing the production of the urbanized lot and restrictions on the commercialization of lots still dampen the sector. The entrepreneur must bear the financing for the production and commercialization of the lots, which limits productive capacity.

Legal Security
One of the major triumphs of the new law is to provide more legal security to the housing market. The resources received by the entrepreneur in a subdivision are now protected, ensuring the completion of works in case of unforeseen events.
Housing in Brazil
The new My House, My Life has the potential to transform the housing sector of the country. The expectation is that more than 4.5 million people will have access to housing by 2026, thanks to the new income brackets and subsidies.
