A bill on lease compensation for families with children was submitted to the State Duma

The bill on compensation for young families with children of the costs of rental housing was submitted to the State Duma. The document was prepared by a group of deputies from the party “Fair Russia — for the Truth”, RBC reports.

The support measure is proposed to be introduced for spouses under 36 years of age, recognized in need of improvement of housing conditions. If the initiative is accepted, families with one child will compensate for 50%of the rent, with two children — 70%, and with three or more — 100%.

Valery Tumin, director of the Russian market and the CIS FAM Properties, believes that the bill on compensation for housing rental for young families with children is an important and timely step in the framework of state policy to support demography and improve housing conditions.

The state demonstrates the willingness to help those who especially need support at the start of family life. This deserves a positive assessment. Housing renting is a convenient and flexible tool, especially at the stage of family formation or moving to a new region. Nevertheless, with all the advantages of rental in the long run, priority should be given to the acquisition of its own housing— the specialist emphasized in an interview with the correspondent of Cyan. Zhurnal.

He also added that constant rent is only a temporary solution that does not give basic stability.

Compensation of expenses by the state can play the role of a financial buffer, which allows you to quickly accumulate on the initial payment of a mortgage or form a pillow of safety. But there is another important aspect. In the absence of mechanisms of regulation by landlords, there may be a temptation to raise rental rates, knowing that the state compensates for part of the payment— continued Valery Tumin.

According to him, with the correct structure of the law, with a clear binding of payments to officially registered lease agreements, such risks are minimized.

Support should be targeted and accompanied by control— the expert summed up.

According to the owner of the real estate agency, Victoria Soboleva should be taken, it is important in this initiative that compensation will be provided to families that are recognized as needing.

Ultimately, additional conditions and requirements for which such status will be determined will be determining. This may concern the level of income, the presence of other real estate objects, the number of cars, the remainder of not deposits and so on. Another point that needs to be taken into account is far from all objects will be suitable for this program, there will be a clear norm and the limit in the number of square meters of rented apartment, the LCD class. Perhaps it will even be social— explained the speaker.

In her opinion, with such an targeted approach, some sharp changes, rental prices should not be expected, and the start of the business season, the arrival of students in large cities will have a much greater impact on the market.

I think that this bill is an attempt to partially compensate for the rejection of the idea of ​​expanding a preferential mortgage for families with children under 14 years of age. There was such news and many were waiting for it very much, since now the program is valid for families with children under 7 years old. Families with children and developers were waiting for her, since with the current lending conditions, the purchase of housing becomes an excessive task, — summed up Victoria Soboleva.
