Mexico City's Real Estate Coordination Desk has approved the viability of 59 projects since it was created in 2025. Together, they represent 43.3 billion pesos in investment and the planned construction of 8,518 homes.

The figures appeared in Mayor Clara Brugada's second government report. The desk aims to reduce the time needed to process real estate projects, as well as the financial costs that can make housing more expensive.
