Since the beginning of 2025, thanks to the implementation of the "Infrastructure for Life" national project, more than 3 million Russian families have been able to improve their housing conditions. This was announced by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
"At a meeting of the Council for Strategic Development and National Projects, the President noted that the key areas of our joint efforts are related to increasing the birth rate and supporting families with children. High-quality housing is also the foundation for improving people's well-being and strengthening families. The national project 'Infrastructure for Life,' which launched in early 2025, aims to create a comfortable environment and a new quality of infrastructure, with modern housing at its core. We are working across the board: increasing construction volumes, relocating people from dilapidated housing, and implementing infrastructure development projects. This work is bearing fruit: since the beginning of 2025, more than 3 million families have improved their housing conditions. This is a significant achievement, but we still have much work ahead, and we cannot slow down the momentum we have achieved," said Marat Khusnullin.
The Deputy Prime Minister noted that, despite the challenges, the construction industry is demonstrating strong momentum. The total volume of housing commissioned over the past 10 months amounts to 83.6 million square meters. This work makes a practical contribution to achieving the strategic goal of increasing the average housing supply to 33 square meters per person by 2030.
"The industry has built a foundation for future periods. Currently, the volume of housing under construction in the country stands at over 120 million square meters, with permits in place for 173.2 million square meters. Urban development potential, including current construction permits, exceeds 474 million square meters. Nonresidential real estate commissioning has increased by 12% compared to the same period last year, reaching 29.4 million square meters," said Deputy Minister of Construction, Housing and Utilities Nikita Stasishin.
Mortgages remain the primary means of improving housing conditions. Currently, over 80% of loans are issued under state-supported programs, such as family, Far Eastern and Arctic, rural, IT, and subsidized mortgages in the reunified regions. Since their inception, more than 3.8 million families have been able to purchase new housing. This year, approximately 430,000 citizens have improved their housing conditions with the help of such loans. Support is also available for families with many children. Since 2019, more than 830,000 such families have received payments of 450,000 rubles toward mortgage repayments.
