The State Duma spoke about the possibility of citizens with benefits to receive housing subsidies

Russians who belong to the preferential category or are officially recognized as needing better housing conditions can receive a subsidy for the purchase of housing once in their lives. This was announced on October 26 by Vladimir Koshelev, first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on Construction and Housing and Communal Services.

According to him, the amount of subsidies can reach more than 70% of the cost of an apartment. According to him, this is influenced by the categories of benefits.

"The reason for recognizing those in need is the lack of housing in the property, the discrepancy between the housing area and the accounting standard — the square footage per person is less than the value set in your region," he said in an interview with TASS.

In addition, Koshelev added that a person can be recognized as needy if he lives in a housing that is in disrepair, or his relative has severe chronic diseases that make it impossible to live together.
