Housing in Lisbon is struggling!
Due to gentrification, prices are getting higher every year and the government is making available some financial assistance for housing.

For each specific programme there are requirements that need to be filled in order to receive.
It\u2019s also important to mention that it\u2019s needed to wait some time from the applications to the approval!
But most of them have the retroactivity rule active: this means that once you got the approval, you will receive the percentage of money starting from the date of the application. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First of all, people who want to ask for financial help, need to have a NIF (Numero de Identifica\u00e7ao Fiscal and have already been subscribed to the Portal das finan\u00e7as<\/a>. You need to already have your access (password) where you can access all your fiscal information. (Please check more here: Good tips<\/a>) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The platform where we can find all types of financial aids, house related are the two: Portal de Habita\u00e7\u00e3o<\/a> e Habitar Lisboa.

The Portal da Habita\u00e7\u00e3o and the Habitar Lisboa Platform are two distinct tools designed to support citizens in accessing housing in Portugal, each with a specific scope and functionalities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Portal da Habita\u00e7\u00e3o<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Portal da Habita\u00e7\u00e3o is a national initiative managed by the Instituto da Habita\u00e7\u00e3o e da Reabilita\u00e7\u00e3o Urbana (IHRU)<\/strong>, which centralizes public housing policies in Portugal. This portal provides services, programs, and financial support instruments for housing and urban rehabilitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Habitar Lisboa Platform<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Habitar Lisboa Platform<\/strong> is a digital tool developed by the Lisbon City Council<\/strong>, specifically for Lisbon residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Residents can register their interest and apply for housing programs offered by the Lisbon Municipality and users are allowed to track the status of their applications and communicate with municipal services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Let\u2019s explore specifically the two platforms and programmes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Portal de Habita\u00e7\u00e3o<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you log in, you can decide between several options, we are going to focus on the following that is related to people who are renting a house: \u201cPreciso de apoio financeiro\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And you can click on \u201cSimuladores\u201d and use this option to simulate your financial situation: this means that we have the opportunity to check if we have all the requirements to receive it, before starting to look for the needed documents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clicking on \u201cPreciso de apoio financeiro\u201d, we need to click on \u201cpara pagar renda\u201d that means to pay the house rent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The majority of the programmes have specific requirements and documents to attach while applying:
