Question 3075 — housing

Summary

Mr. Bertrand Bouyx questions the Minister of Territorial Cohesion on the reform of the housing sector that you are supporting and which intends to eliminate, in peri-urban and rural areas (zones B2 and C), the benefit, for buyers of new housing, of the Pinel system to encourage intermediate rental investment, from January 1, 2018, then that of the zero-rate loan (PTZ), at the end of January 1 2020. Elected by territory “classified” in zone B2 or C, it fears very harmful consequences on the economic and social balance of these announced deletions. There are fears that this will contribute to accentuating the territorial divide, which is at the heart of government concerns. Examination of the acquisition projects carried out since the beginning of 2016 in its constituency shows that a very large majority, more than 60%, would not have existed without these Pinel and PTZ schemes, lack of sufficient solvency of young households or lack of sufficient profitability for investors. The impact of these unrealized life projects on a territory like the one it represents is threefold. 1. Neighboring areas classified as “B1”, there follows an exodus of some households favoring settlement in areas benefiting from long-term aid. Although the cost of real estate there or more important, the solvency effect of the incentives facilitates access to property. In the Calvados territory, 1,000 households per year would have difficulty carrying out their project in zones B2 and C. In addition to the social and demographic shock, there is also a loss of local tax revenue generated by these new constructions (development tax and property tax) estimated at more than 5,000,000 euros per year. 2. One A large proportion of buyers assisted by the PTZ (around 55%) are tenants of the HLM park. More than 600 tenant households in the HLM park who do not carry out their home ownership project, that is as many HLM housing units not released to meet the needs of those on the waiting list. 3. The economic fabric of the construction sector, made up essentially of individual companies, would see a significant part of its turnover business disappear by collateral effect. In the Calvados region, this represents the elimination of nearly 2,000 jobs and several hundred businesses. The disappearance of this silent majority of entrepreneurs (the smallest and most fragile) is the equivalent of the cumulative disappearance of Norman flagships such as Elle and Vire, Guy Degrenne and Renault Trucks! Reform of housing assistance is a necessity absolute, but it must be understood with regard to the quantitative evaluation of its consequences in terms of activity, jobs and taxation. He asks him what assessment has been carried out regarding the impact of the short-term disappearance of aid for stone in territories B2 and C and how he plans to build a sustainable vision of their real estate development for these territories.
