Frequent questions
What is the Family Bonus for Housing?
It is a Donation/Benefit that the State, in solidarity, grants to low-income and middle-class families, families at social risk or in an emergency situation, people with disabilities and older adults, among other social groups, as well as families with credit facilities, can solve their housing problem.
The amount to be received by a family depends on their constant monthly income and the program to which they can apply according to their socioeconomic status and pre-qualification, according to the requirements.
How long does the Housing Voucher process last?
Each process is unique and varies depending on many factors, such as whether or not you have a property ready to build, the speed of the family to get the necessary paperwork, as well as the time BANHVI takes to review the cases and approve them. For this reason, exact dates cannot be offered to be a beneficiary of a Voucher.
That is why at Grupo ConstruArte we take care of managing your project and accompanying you throughout the process so that you and your family do not have the uncertainty about the viability of your own home. That is why we use our experience to offer you the best solutions according to your current situation. That is why it is important to have constant communication between the family and Grupo ConstruArte to give the process the necessary flexibility in the face of both family and process changes that may occur.
Do I need to pay anything to get my voucher?
Although the benefit of the Family Bonus for Housing is free, to meet certain application requirements it is necessary to cover certain INDIRECT COSTS of administrative procedures of state or banking institutions involved throughout the housing process.
To this end, we urge families to generate family savings prior to and during the process that will allow them to cover these costs in the most fluid way possible, without affecting the family's finances.
At Grupo ConstruArte we take care of providing you with the most up-to-date information according to your specific case so that you can invest your money in the most efficient and effective way possible for the benefit of your own home.
What do you mean by Indirect Costs?
The previous indirect costs are administrative procedures related to the application for the Housing Bonus, necessary for both the file that is applied for to BANHVI as well as for the purchase of the property (if applicable) and/or construction of the home. These indirect costs can be the payment of Property Appraisal, Social Work Studies, certificates with lawyers and/or accountants, Real Estate history, construction guard, among others.
These costs are variable, always depending on the type of benefit request that the family is making. As it is a Family Housing Voucher, the price of some of the costs is 50% lower than what would normally be paid. If the family organizes the finances and saves during the duration of this process, they will be able to face the expenses related to obtaining the bond.
Important, these Indirect Costs are defined by each institution or entity to which the payment must be made, such as: National Registry, Municipality, Professional Associations, National Insurance Institute, corresponding ASADA or AyA, ICE and Authorized Entity before the BANHVI. Grupo ConstruArte has no influence on these amounts.
Likewise, the costs are established according to the type of project and the location of the property, as well as by the determinants and costs that each institution has already established. Remember that every housing project is unique and not comparable, since they are carried out according to family composition, the chosen property and current regulations.
Grupo ConstruArte helps you define the costs necessary for your exclusive project. Therefore, once the property on which to build is located, the ideal is for the family to start a constant savings that will allow them to steadily advance each of the steps that will allow them to apply for their housing project.
