The attempted change of agenda for Harilaou Trikoupi and its gradual presentation PASOK government program It coincides with the extension of party pressure from the party but also with an internal tension that culminated in the previous days on the occasion of the Batzeli referral to the Ethics Committee.
However, PASOK holds the next Regional Conference on the South Aegean and the Dodecanese on Saturday, and today it is presenting its housing policy by responding to one of the biggest problems currently facing hundreds of thousands of fellow citizens due to rapid rentals.
The event, according to Harilaou Trikoupi, is scheduled to take place with a fresher concept with Nikos Androulakis discussing with well -known scriptwriter Panagiotis Markezini and analyzing PASOK’s complete proposal.
PASOK’s housing policy was prepared by the program team led by Lefteris Karchimakis and is titled #GenRent.
It aims to create a sustainable and socially fair framework for housing, focusing on the needs of vulnerable groups, the stabilization of rents and the improvement of quality of life.
The central objective of the proposal, as PASOK executives note is to increase the offer of affordable and accessible homes through the construction of 5,000 new houses, the renovation of closed properties and the regulation of the rental market. It enhances social cohesion, reducing the displacement of residents from their neighborhoods and offering a comprehensive framework for renters.
In particular, the central axes of PASOK’s housing policy are:
1) Establishment of a home address that will establish pressure zones in the areas with a high housing burden. Pressure zones may suggest to any competent authority, such as Airbnb restriction, the abolition of Golden Visa, the ceiling at rent growth rate, or the maximum rental price in real estate that does not meet basic quality of roofing quality eg. Energy class. It will be responsible for finding funds from any competent national and supranational source and will assist the Local Authorities to develop social housing programs themselves. At the same time, it includes the Ombudsman’s Office of the tenant who records and investigates renters’ complaints for violations of the arrangements, imposing sanctions where needed.
2) Establishment of a Public Property Management Company in which public and Local Authorities will be able to grant the use of their properties, renovate them and have them for rent in low rents. In addition, it will build 5,000 new homes that will be available for new couples. Through the renovation programs of DEADA and the social housing programs of the municipalities, it is estimated that 40,000 low rental houses can be on the market within 5 years. These houses will meet the basic requirements to be accessible to disabled and part of them can be used as a supported living shelter. In addition, a percentage of houses will be suitable to house three and large families.
3) In collaboration with the municipalities, criteria are set on the basis of which the priority of DEDIA’s homes will have doctors, alternate teachers, nurses and military.
4) Abolition of Golden Visa in small islands, urban centers and Thrace. Amending the Angel Visa in order to invest in the region in the primary, secondary sector and start-ups with the aim of attracting economic activity in the region to attract new people, and to diminish residential pressure on urban centers.
5) Rental Taxages:
Owners who have their property in the property address enjoy reduced taxation or zero for specific periods of time
6) Integration into the legislation on tourist specifications from one category or number of beds and above, the creation of staff residences with minimal area per person and specifications. Prohibition of using them for tourist exploitation and combination with the license of the hotel unit.
