Home > My House, but Better

Eased credit to purchase furniture and appliances injects R$ 2.9 billion into the economy

One dream leads to another. Anybody who enters a house for the first time and sees everything brand new and shining, simply dreams of filling it with beautiful things. The federal government launched the My Better House program in June 2013 to ensure fulfillment of this second dream, the.

My Better House is a CEF line of credit targeted at My House, My Life beneficiaries. Each family that is current with its house payments can finance the purchase of furniture and appliances (bed, table, stove, refrigerator, microwave, digital television and tablet computer, among others) at interest rates subsidized by the federal government, of 5% per year.

The success has been so great that in just one year, 592,000 families injected no less than R$ 2.9 billion into the country's economy. That is: in addition to more comfort for the beneficiaries, the My Better House program helps heat up the industry and trade sectors.

A new meaning for the right to housing

With My Better House, the right to housing has gained new meaning, now also understood as access to the comfort and conveniences of modern life. Every housewife knows how much time she can save through by installing a washing machine or a microwave oven for day-to-day tasks. The children’s school work improves with a desktop or notebook computer. Gathering the family to watch a movie or a new soap opera episode becomes even more pleasurable on a digital television screen. Not to mention the pleasure of having a new house and new furniture. And without speaking of the joy of furniture and appliance shopkeepers and manufacturers at selling more and hiring additional workers, creating extra jobs and income.

The loans can be contracted in the branches of the Caixa. Or, it’s even easier through a telephone hotline (0800 728 8068). After receiving a card at home, purchases can be made in more than 27,000 authorized stores. It is important that families that sign up for the My Better House card be careful to check prices and bargain to obtain a lower price, because the stores have signed a commitment to offer a discount of at least 5% to them.
