Overview
- The Cacama 84 complex provides 40 subsidized apartments for roughly 200 residents, priced at no more than 800,000 pesos each in a market where comparable units reach about 2.4 million pesos.
- Built through the city’s social-housing model after more than a decade of community organizing, the project used about 32.7 million pesos in public investment for 54–64 m2 units on a 780 m2 lot with over 3,500 m2 of construction.
- Jefa de Gobierno Clara Brugada said the housing budget has been doubled to 9 billion pesos, with a goal of 200,000 housing actions this term and about 30,000 in 2025, including rehabilitation of 1,200 complexes.
- Brugada plans to send a fair-rent law to the local Congress and create a tenant defender, with a stated aim to bar rent increases above inflation and to advance the 14-measure Bando 1 package to contain displacement.
- The government previewed a public rental program focused on young and lower-income households, funded with 600 million pesos this year for 1,000 units in central boroughs, with rents capped at 30% of income and a longer-term goal of 20,000 rental homes.
