Family Min: Over 70,000 families apply for home renovation subsidies
More than 70,000 families have submitted applications for home renovation subsidies so far, the minister for family affairs said on Saturday.
Families who have applied have already been awarded subsidies worth almost a combined 100 billion forints (€ 272 million), Katalin Novák said in a statement.
Family Min: Current Hungarian family policy at stake in 2022 election
She noted that under the scheme launched in January, the government is offering to cover up to half of home renovation costs, with a grant capped at 3 million forints, for families with at least one child.
Families may take out a subsidised loan to cover the other half of project costs. Families have so far carried out renovations worth a combined 277 billion forints with the help of the subsidies, Novák added.

Great program.
My neighbors are taking advantage of these grants to improve their homes.
Yes István, they are renovating their home with your Tax payments. Maybe you are OK with it but I am not. Vote Opposition!!!!
My neighbours are too, but they don’t need this grant because they have the money to do it without the help. She laughed when she told me because everyone is fiddling the invoices. What’s really sad is the family across the road who really need this grant don’t fall into the correct ‘category’ for the help.
I don’t mind my taxes helping my neighbors live better.
Hungarians helping Hungarians.
Very good program.
American Steve has no scruples.
Soros agents can insult and muddy the waters but fortunately, don’t vote in Hungarian elections.
Magyarország a magyaroké!
That’s where you’re wrong American Steve. 😉
Sorry Moderator, but I cannot let this continue without proper response:
It is disgusting when some communist slime tries to degrade a Hungarian freedom fighter who was forced to escape after the Soviet tanks crushed the Hungarian uprising by calling him “American Steve”.
I am American and Hungarian patriot. As a young man, I took up against “Hungarian” communist slime and their Soviet masters for Hungarian freedom. Still a young man in America, I served in the US Army at the time of Cuban crisis. I served Hungary and America with honor. “American Steve” would not be an insult for me but except when it is used by communist slime with intent to degrade.
About 40,000 Hungarian refugees found homes in America. I was one of these who found freedom and opportunities in America. I am US educated with three engineering and one computer science degree. Fifty years later, I returned to Hungary as a retired Hungarian-American research engineer. Hungary is my home. I will be buried here but as long as I live, I fight for Hungarian freedom and against communist slime.
American and Hungarian patriot… 🤣 this fellow is a joke.
Have no use for communist slime
