Variety of sizes
The apartments and houses offered by the Minha Casa Minha Vida program can vary in size, depending on the income range and the housing project in question. The program includes different modalities, such as Track 1, Track 2 and Track 3, each with specific income and subsidy criteria.
Gross income – Band 1
In Band 1 of the program, aimed at families with a gross monthly income of up to R$ 2,640.00, apartments and houses tend to have a smaller size. Generally, these housing units are 42 to 60 square meters in size. Despite being compact properties, they are intelligently designed to optimize the available space and ensure comfort for residents.
Gross income – Band 2
In Band 2, aimed at families with a gross monthly income of up to R$ 4,400.00, it is possible to find slightly larger houses and apartments. In this range, properties can vary between 60 and 70 square meters. This increase in square footage allows for a more generous distribution of rooms, providing greater comfort to residents.
Gross income – Band 3
For families with a gross monthly income of up to R$ 8,000.00, falling into Band 3, apartments and houses can have even more space. In this modality, it is possible to find housing units with square meters that exceed 60 square meters. These properties, in general, are larger and have a greater variety of rooms, meeting the needs of larger families.
Size benefit:
Apartments and houses
The size of the apartments and houses offered by Minha Casa Minha Vida brings several benefits to the program's beneficiaries. For example, the compact size of the apartments and houses in Range 1 makes it possible to build more housing units in the same space, increasing the number of benefiting families. This means greater social inclusion, providing adequate housing conditions for low-income people.
Optimization of available space
Another advantage is the optimization of available space in apartments/houses. Housing projects are designed to make the most of each square meter, ensuring well-distributed and functional environments. This helps families have a suitable home, with spaces for coexistence, privacy and carrying out daily activities.
Larger houses and apartments
In relation to larger apartments and houses, in ranges 2 and 3, it is possible to highlight the possibility of accommodating larger families more comfortably. With houses and apartments exceeding 60 square meters, there is more space to accommodate additional bedrooms, providing privacy and convenience for residents. This is especially advantageous for families with children or elderly people, who may have specific space and mobility needs.
Flexibility and customization of spaces
In addition, larger apartments and houses also offer greater flexibility in arranging furniture and customizing spaces. With more square footage available, residents have the freedom to organize the interior of the property according to their preferences and needs, creating environments that suit their lifestyle.
Another positive point is that apartments and houses of varying sizes allow for greater diversity of choice for program beneficiaries. Each family has its own demands and needs in relation to the size of the property, and Minha Casa Minha Vida seeks to meet this diversity, offering options that suit different family profiles.
Quality and safety standards
It is important to highlight that, regardless of the size of the apartment or house, all Minha Casa Minha Vida properties must follow quality and safety standards established by the competent bodies. Housing projects are developed with the well-being and comfort of residents in mind, considering issues such as ventilation, natural lighting, accessibility and basic infrastructure.
Personal Analysis
The size of apartments and houses in the Minha Casa Minha Vida Program may vary according to the income range and the housing project. This diversity of sizes makes it possible to meet different family profiles and needs, providing adequate housing conditions for low-income families.
The compact apartments and houses in Range 1 allow for the inclusion of a greater number of families, while the larger properties in Ranges 2 and 3 guarantee greater comfort and flexibility. In all cases, the quality and safety of properties is ensured, promoting the dignity and well-being of program beneficiaries.
