Bahrain launched an 800 million BD social housing plan aimed at delivering 50,000 housing units and services.

In a reply to MP Abdulwahid Qarata, the Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning said a 2025 royal directive had been turned into an executive plan prepared with Eskan Bank and cleared by the Cabinet. It stated the plan aimed to speed up housing access through several paths.

These include traditional housing services, expanded financing options such as Tas’heel and Mazaya, and partnerships with private developers to increase supply.

The ministry said 7,000 housing services are set for delivery by December 2025, with major projects already underway across the Kingdom. Among them is Madinat Khalifa, expected to provide over 3,000 units.

Officials added that the plan is designed to reduce waiting times, expand choices for citizens, and ensure quality through strict oversight and coordination with relevant authorities.
