Khabarovsk Krai builds 2,388 rental apartments to ease worker housing crisis

Khabarovsk Krai is addressing a housing scarcity for skilled workers in its remote districts. The regional government has initiated a new rental housing project under a federal programme. This initiative aims to provide affordable accommodation in hard-to-reach areas.

The scheme falls under President Vladimir Putin's national push for 'Affordable Rental Housing in the Far Eastern and Arctic Federal Districts'. Funding will come from federal and regional budgets, ensuring long-term support for the build.

DOM.RF JSC, a key developer, has already signed 22 co-investment deals to deliver 2,388 rental apartments across Khabarovsk Krai. Of these, 324 units have been completed and are now available for tenants.

The selected locations cover Amursky, Verkhnebureinsky, Ulchsky, and Nanaisky Districts, as well as Okhotsky and Solnechny Municipal Okrugs. These areas were chosen based on demand from workers in industries critical to the region's economy.

The first phase of the project has already added 324 homes to the rental market. Further developments will expand housing options in underserved districts. Officials expect the programme to ease pressure on local labour markets by improving living conditions for essential workers.
