The first batch of the Youth Housing Units, which comprises 156 units at Tsholofelo East in Gaborone are expected to be complete next month.

In a bid to promote home ownership amongst citizens renting Botswana Housing Corporation’s (BHC) houses, government last year introduced the Installment Purchase Scheme (IPS) under which 750 units would be built.

The scheme is part of the government’s efforts to reduce shortage of accommodation amongst the youth who cannot afford rentals from the private market. The units are being built on two plots at Tsholofelo East in Gaborone.
