TLDR

  • Nearly one million Algerians have paid the first installment for the AADL 3 housing program.
  • Construction of 130,000 housing units has begun, with initial deliveries expected before the end of 2026.
  • The program's success highlights the persistent high demand for social and affordable housing in Algeria.

The Algerian Ministry of Housing has reported significant progress on the AADL 3 housing program, with 950,000 subscribers having paid their initial installment electronically. This overwhelming response underscores the deep-seated demand for affordable housing solutions in Algeria, a perennial challenge for successive governments.

Près de 950 000 souscripteurs au programme AADL 3 ont déjà réglé leur première tranche par voie électronique.

Minister Mohamed Tarek Belaribi announced that the construction of 130,000 units is underway, and crucially, the first homes are slated for delivery before the end of 2026 in select regions. This timeline, while ambitious, offers a tangible prospect for thousands of families who have been waiting for years, often having participated in previous AADL programs that faced significant delays.

The program's success is also marked by its fully dematerialized payment process, a modernization aimed at streamlining administrative procedures. The first installment amounts, set at 343,000 Algerian dinars for F3 apartments and 431,500 dinars for F4 units, are considered accessible relative to the current real estate market. This financial mobilization, achieved in just a few months, reflects both the program's attractiveness and the substantial capital flowing into the housing sector.

However, the shadow of past delivery delays looms large. Subscribers will be watching the 2026 deadline closely, hoping that this iteration of the AADL program will break the cycle of protracted waiting periods that have characterized its predecessors. The government's commitment to meeting this deadline will be a critical test of its ability to deliver on housing promises.

L’opération de paiement se déroule «normalement», et que la réalisation d’environ 130 000 logements est d’ores et déjà lancée.

— Mohamed Tarek BelaribiMinister Belaribi confirming the smooth progress of payment operations and the commencement of construction for approximately 130,000 housing units.
