Parliamentarians are set to modify the down payment requirements for the 'Noua Casă' housing program, allowing young buyers to purchase homes over €70,000 with a minimum 5% down payment. This initiative, supported by all political parties, aims to address the rising housing prices and decreasing availability in major cities. The proposal has passed preliminary stages and is scheduled for a final vote in the Senate next week. However, the National Bank of Romania opposes the changes, suggesting that the program's relevance has diminished and warning of potential price increases in the housing market.
