Provisional Measure that extends the use of funds and may benefit 500 thousand Brazilians only depends on the sanction of Lula

River - is in the hands of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva using FGTS (Guarantee Fund for Employees) to pay off consortia in home ownership. Provisional Measure 462/09 - approved in Congress - in his text has permission to use the fund to pay such benefits to the consortium. When enacted, the measure will immediately benefit over 500 thousand Brazilians.

Currently, the FGTS can only be used to pay off mortgage or conventional as input to purchase the property. For the lawyer Sergio Sender, the measure will be excellent for the consortium members, "since before they could use these funds to pay off their balances."

But Sender recommends that anyone who is paying a benefit only comfortable will use the guarantee fund is really necessary. "He should think very carefully, not to lose these resources as important to another stage of life," he advises.

The lawyer notes that the consortium has been one of the best ways to purchase: does not charge extortionate interest rates or even higher, causes the balance due not extrapolate the real value of the property and does not produce residual balance.

'MY HOUSE, MY LIFE'

Last year, the sanctioning Law 11,795, which regulates the sector, President Lula vetoed the release of FGTS for the payment of installments of consortia and discharge properties. The change, included at the time by the senators, was vetoed on the grounds that the extension of the implementation of the balances of the Guarantee Fund would involve a significant amount of looting and reduce the resources available to fund the construction of houses.

Yesterday, the State Secretary of Housing, Leonardo Picciani, said he was concerned about the delay of the Caixa Econômica Federal to approve projects for works on land donated by the state for the project 'My Home My Life'. According Picciani, the department identified in the last six months, five areas of state property with the capacity to receive at least 4 thousand housing units. The difficulty in obtaining permits for areas by the city of Rio is also hampering the government's actions, says the secretary.
