To apply for this bonus provided by the Peruvian State and which is non-refundable, you will only have to meet three simple requirements.
- You must have a home registered in Public Registries without charges or encumbrances
- Not be the owner of another land or home nationwide.
- You must have a minimum savings of S/920 (does not include ITF or commission, so you must add them).
How can I improve my house with the Techo Propio program?
Once you meet the requirements, you must be aware that there is a current call in the province where you have your home so that you can register. Once enrolled in the program, you must choose an authorized technical entity (ET). Here you can consult the current technical entities.
Next, you must sign a construction contract with the ET you choose. Don’t forget to request a copy of the contract to know your rights and duties, as well as those of the technical entity.
