What is a Hitas home?
Hitas homes are owner-occupied housing intended for residents of the city, the price of which is regulated. Hitas homes are usually more affordable than the market price, but there is also an upper limit on the selling price of the homes.

Hitas housing is developed by the city’s own Housing Production and private developers in different parts of the city.
