25,000 public housing in Brussels 3600 days (number 9). November 2010.

The Brussels regional government agreements in the summer of 2009 seems ambitious. They provide, in a period of 10 years, a dramatic increase in the number of public housing by a standard to be achieved within 10 years 15% of quality housing management service and social purposes .

bimonthly This letter is intended to be a spur to help achieve even partial goals.

At the current rate, as calculated previously selected, it will be extremely long to realize the goal of creating ten-year housing.

However, calculating the exact number of homes affected now appears very complicated. Thus:

- The Brussels region currently has a total housing stock of approximately 550,000 homes. But the Brussels population is growing rapidly (currently around 1.5% per year) . This growth is accompanied by an increase in the number of dwellings (currently about 5,000 units per year). If the trend continues for 10 years, to 2020, there will more of 600,000 units. It will therefore create about 7,500 social housing with more to simply maintain a constant percentage of social housing with.

- Some actions of the Secretary of State responsible for housing, Christos Doulkeridis, the target of 15% is no longer based solely on public housing for social purposes. It includes the dwelling are rented out by social housing agencies (ISA) at a price lower than the market and homes purchased through the 900 mortgage loans each year at favorable rates through the Housing Fund.

- The goal is a target of 15% for each municipality. Theoretically, this could mean a total end to be attained at the Brussels level above 15% (since some municipalities as Watermael-Boitsfort have more than 15% of public housing with a social purpose in their territory).

- Finally the scheduled ten years to reach the target could lie a little: for example, from 2009 to 2020.

In light of the foregoing, the calculation of housing varies greatly in creating a few thousand homes in 11 years to about 40,000 homes in 10 years.

What seems sadly certain whatever the method of calculation and whatever the good will of each other is that the number of social housing with created is far below demand.

The summary of results below shows the progress compared to an average target of 25,000 units. There were considered the housing provided by social housing agencies (A.IS.) even if not strictly housing management service, but it was not considered loans housing as they relate buildings management totally private.

Only homes actually available are recognized: the sites, projects under public contract, ... are not included. They will be included in a future letter.


State of the realization of the 25,000 homes in 3600 days (known to November 30, 2010) (this calculation does not take into account the social loans):

  • Number new public housing built under the plan said the 5000 housing: 68

  • Number of public housing offices created from processed: 0

  • Number of public housing created from homes and other buildings abandoned: 0

  • Number of public housing created by other means (acquisitions, leases, contracts neighborhood ...): not precisely known, perhaps around 300

  • Number of private dwellings provided by the AIS: unknown accurately, probably around 400

  • (-) Deletions of public housing (acquisition by tenants, destruction ,...): not precisely known, probably around 0

  • Total Housing actually created new audiences: around 800

  • Time elapsed: 16 months since the political agreements (17 months since the beginning of the legislature)

  • Time remaining to complete the implementation available units: 105 months

  • Total number of public housing that should have been created during the elapsed time (based on 200 units per month): 3,400

  • Minimum sum saved by the authorities regional or local Brussels at the expense of those who occupy the dwellings (based on a cost of 100,000 € per unit): € 260,000,000
