Affordable Rental Housing

Affordable Rental Housing

The programme is designed to support residential development projects with the objective of increasing the number of rental apartments and improving their affordability.

In cooperation with the Ministry of Regional Development, we are launching a programme focused on supporting affordable rental housing. The programme enables favourable financing of housing projects through subordinated loans. Its objective is to efficiently leverage private-sector capital, encouraging investors not only to develop and sell housing units, but also to own, manage, and rent them out for a minimum period of 20 years.

A total of CZK 2.25 billion has been allocated to the programme, supporting the development of hundreds of apartments that will provide quality housing with regulated rent levels.

The programme is intended to finance both the preparation and construction of new residential developments, as well as the renovation and modernisation of existing properties for future long-term rental housing.

SPECIFIC FEATURES OF THE NRB SUBORDINATED LOAN

The preferential subordinated loan provided by the National Development Bank (NRB) is offered as co-financing alongside a senior loan provided by another financial institution.
The loan is secured by a second-ranking mortgage charge on the property, subordinate to the senior lender's security interest, for the duration of the senior loan repayment schedule.
