About one thousand loans for the purchase of houses and apartments are issued in the republic per month. In the Republic of Tatarstan, up to 260 loans for housing are issued per week. The Minister of Construction, Architecture, Housing and Communal Services of the Republic of Tatarstan Farit Khanifov announced this at a briefing in the RT Cabinet. “The analysis shows that there is an established norm, 220-260 credits per week. 260 credits per week is a thousand per month,” - said Khanifov. If we translate these figures into the number of residents of the republic who received loans to build a house and buy an apartment, it turns out that a small settlement appears in Tatarstan in a month, the speaker noted. By 2024, the Ministry of Construction of the Republic of Tatarstan plans to build about 3 million 600 sq. meters of housing. “In five years we need to grow by half a million square meters. It is within our power,” - the minister added.
