General Supervisor of Real Estate Development Fund Mansour bin Madi said that SR425 million was allocated in support of the profits of the subsidised real estate contracts, while SR530 million were provided to the beneficiaries of the Military Support Initiative who are in service in all military sectors, and Rs93 million for the Civilian Support Initiative beneficiaries.

 

The total amounts deposited by the fund in the accounts of Sakani beneficiaries since the announcement of the subsidized real estate loan in 2017 till date amounted to about SR19.111 billion, stated Bin Madi.

In this regard, it has set a date earlier for depositing housing support for citizens who benefit from real estate financing programmes for the second time in a row during the suspension of work in government offices due to Covid-19 pandemic, he added.-TradeArabia News Service
