The National Housing Authority (NHA) plans to launch a mortgage loan for homebuyers who want to buy residential units but cannot apply for mortgage loans from commercial banks.

The price index of condominium units priced below 50,000 baht a square metre has risen 10% this year despite the large new supply, against a rise of just 6% in the condominium price index overall.

The Government Housing Bank was swamped yesterday on the launch of the Bt25-billion First Home Loan scheme, with nearly 6,000 eager applicants seeking almost Bt9 billion in zero-interest mortgages.

LPN Development is expected to be a prime beneficiary of a government plan to offer zero interest loans for first-time homebuyers who purchase properties costing below Bt3 million, said DBS Vickers Securities (Thailand).

Thailand saw strong growth in launches of new property projects in the first quarter with a total of 28,683 units, up 28.4% yearon-year, with the value rising 35% to 68.75 billion, according to Agency for Real Estate Affairs.

The GHB zero interest campaign would help buyers afford units for under THB3 million at developments like Pruksa's Plum Condos.
