Social rented housing for low-income families will be available in Azerbaijan, Azerbaijani Deputy Economic Development Minister Sevinj Hasanova said at an event on housing and community issues in Azerbaijan on Tuesday.

"The low-income families have been able to use social mortgage since 2005 to provide themselves with housing," he said. "However, as we know, not all citizens are able to obtain loans within the social mortgage. Azerbaijan will introduce social rented housing for people with low income within the state measures. This is a major step in resolving the issue of providing poor families with housing in the country."

She said that all the conditions for obtaining housing through social rent have been reflected in the Azerbaijani Housing Code. At present, on average, some 18 square meters of housing fall to one person and this figure continues to grow.

The new methods of housing governance were introduced within the event.
