Thread: NHA adds 10,000 housing units to Million Home campaign

BANGKOK, 24 November 2018 (NNT) - The National Housing Agency (NHA) has added 10,000 more housing units to the Million Home campaign with an affordable price from 250,000 baht each.

NHA Governor Tachaphol Kanjanakul said the agency has prepared some 10,000 units under the campaign for low-price housing project provided by the Government Housing Bank (GHB) in 35 projects across the country.

Housing units by the NHA which comply with the GHB's campaign are available from 250,000 baht.

The GHB has launched the Million Home campaign with a 60 billion baht budget to provide special loans with a five-year repayment period and 3% interest rate for the purchase of a house at up to one million baht in price. The bank expects the loan to be offered for the purchase of 30,000 units in its initial phase.

The NHA will kick off its campaign in late-December and currently allows interested persons to check the listing on www.ghbmillionhome for the first batch of 30,000 units. Those who wish to purchase houses but are ineligible under such campaign may consult with the NHA to find alternative financial options.
