Questions we get asked

What is a housing subsidy, and how do I know if I qualify?

A housing subsidy is government-backed financial support that helps qualifying South Africans buy or build their first home. Qualification depends on factors like your monthly household income, whether you've owned property before, and your citizenship or residency status. Contact us for a free assessment and we'll tell you exactly where you stand.

How long does the application process take?

Timelines vary by subsidy type and depend on how quickly documents are submitted and processed by government departments. We keep you updated at every stage so you're never left wondering where your application stands.

What documents do I need to apply?

You'll typically need a certified copy of your ID and proof of income, and, depending on your circumstances, documents like a marriage certificate or proof of dependants. We'll give you a full checklist specific to your application once we know which subsidy you qualify for.

Do I need a good credit record to qualify?

It depends on the subsidy. Some programmes, like the Individual Subsidy Programme, don't require a home loan, so credit history matters less. Others are paired with a bond, which means your credit record will play a role. We'll talk you through what applies to you.

Is there a cost to apply through Subsidy ME?

Housing subsidy applications can always be submitted directly through government channels at no cost. Subsidy ME offers additional support and guidance to simplify the process, any service fees will always be communicated upfront before we assist you.
