Homeownership Program for Low-income Families Living Downtown

"My dream house gives me hope for life!" House of Hope Program for the underprivileged!

The lottery funds are to help low-income families keep living where they are now. They support the following programs: acquisition and lease of houses such as multi-household houses in which multi-household houses and apartment units in a private house situated in downtown are acquired, repaired and leased at low prices (about 30% of market value) for up to 20 years; lease of existing houses on jeonse (‘key money deposit’) in which a jeonse agreement is signed for the houses in downtown such as multi-household houses and re-leased(subleased?) at low prices to help low-income families keep living where they are. The lottery funds help a lot of families find their own house.
