Is there public assistance available?

Direct aids in the form of a capital payment

Each person can benefit from a lump sum of direct aids in the form of a capital payment up to a total amount of EUR 35.000, known as the “capital payment pot”. A beneficiary may receive one or more of these subsidies for several successive homes. Each subsidy is calculated on the basis of the net income of the applicant’s domestic community, i.e. the combined net income of all the members of the household of the home to be purchased. Any principal assistance (including that already awarded in the past) is deducted from the total amount until the capital payment pot is exhausted. If there is more than one beneficiary, each instalment of a premium is allocated equally among them.

  • Home ownership incentive of up to EUR 10.000 (+40% for a commonhold property or a terraced house and +15% for a semi-detached house)
