The Social Housing Finance Corporation (SHFC) has announced a one-month moratorium on monthly payments for beneficiaries affected by Tropical Storm Kristine. This move is aimed at providing immediate relief to families who have been severely impacted by the storm’s devastation.
The moratorium is in response to the directive of Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development Secretary Jose Rizalino Acuzar to provide immediate relief and recovery efforts for affected families, in line with President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr.’s disaster response strategy.
Beneficiaries who wish to continue paying their monthly amortization can still do so through SHFC’s various online payment channels, including GCash, Maya, and BPI. This ensures that those who prefer to maintain their payment schedules have flexible options for meeting their obligations despite the ongoing challenges.
SHFC remains committed to improving the lives of its housing beneficiaries. At present, SHFC has 12 ongoing projects under the Pambansang Pabahay Para sa Pilipino Program (4PH), including significant developments in Crystal Peak Estates in San Fernando City, Pampanga; People’s Ville in Davao City; and Valley View Township in Tagoloan, Misamis Oriental. These projects form part of the 111 shovel-ready initiatives aimed at providing more than 505,000 units by 2028.
By December, SHFC is scheduled to turn over more than 300 units to beneficiaries of Crystal Peak Estates and approximately 400 units to beneficiaries of People’s Ville.
