Discover the Minha Casa Minha Vida program
The Minha Casa Minha Vida 2021 program is a federal government program with the aim of facilitating the financing of home ownership for low-income people. In this, these families manage to pay a certain amount per month, without having to compromise the bills.
So, today, we're going to show you how this program works, how you can apply, and other useful information about it! Check out!
What is the Minha Casa Minha Vida program and how does it work?
Well, the Minha Casa Minha Vida 2021 program is a federal government program, managed by Caixa Econômica Federal, but also executed by Banco do Brasil. Created to make life easier for low-income people who are unable to buy their own home.
And in addition, the program seeks to bring more accessible means of financing, so that they can pay a monthly amount, without compromising their bills, and also pay a minimum down payment!
So, it is not a program aimed at everyone, but only at low-income people. And some criteria need to be observed, for example, the funding limit in this program is as follows:
- Up to R$ 225 thousand: In this case, valid for metropolitan regions of São Paulo, Federal District and Rio de Janeiro.
- R$ 200 thousand: Valid for the metropolitan regions of Paraná, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul, Espírito Santo and Minas Gerais.
- Up to R$ 180 thousand: In this case, valid for the rest of the cities, except for those with less than 20 thousand inhabitants.
- R$ 90 thousand: In this case, valid for municipalities with less than 20,000 inhabitants.
Well, the installments will be automatically calculated and announced even before the contract is signed, and after the stipulated period of 30 days, the first payment will be made.
It is important to mention that payments can be made via direct debit or bank slip. If it is through debit, the installment will be automatically debited from the account. If using a bank slip, payment can be made at bank or lottery agencies.
What are the benefits of Minha Casa Minha Vida?
Well, there are several advantages in the Minha Casa Minha Vida program. Initially, interest rates on this loan are lower. That's because the interest varies from 6% to 8% per year, being much lower than the interest on common financing.
And in addition, you can apply financing to rural properties. In this, there will be some differences between the funding criteria, but it is still possible.
Also, program participants have personalized service and the possibility of paying overdue installments with the FGTS.
