The program of 100 thousand free housing comes in response from the national government to the reality of thousands of households living in extreme poverty and, therefore, they are unable to access credit for their home by traditional mechanisms offered the market. This program aims to deliver 100 thousand houses within 2 years, and has as its main objective further progress in meeting the government's goals of creating jobs and reducing poverty in Colombia.

The program of 100 thousand free housing gives priority to displaced families, which are part of the Red States and the most vulnerable sectors. Also, a percentage of households in each project will be allocated to households affected by natural disasters or who live in areas of high risk can not be mitigated.

With free housing program, the Government promotes a partnership between the public sector and the private sector to define a target selection method, agile and transparent designers, builders and inspectors of works.
