The Peruvian Chamber of Construction (Capeco) highlighted the stability of interest rates presented by the social housing in the last 18 months, which would be more attractive for those interested in acquiring their own home compared to the traditional banking costs.
“To the extent that the fund can maintain the stability of its rates, around 8% per year for its products, a greater focus on these credits could be observed. Let us remember that the credits of the Mivivienda Fund bring with them bonuses that reduce the payment to families”said Jorge Arévalo, general manager of Capeco, during the Navent Mystery Shopper award ceremony.
