Promote home ownership with family grants and fewer rules

The AfD wants to do more to support buying affordable homes, mainly through a Saxon Baukindergeld (home-buying grant for families). Building rules are to be loosened, and at the federal level it wants to exempt homes inherited within the family from inheritance tax. In its view, more deportations would ease pressure on the housing market.

The AfD wants more people to be able to buy their own home. Families should get money from the state for this. There should be fewer building rules. Homes inherited in the family should be tax-free. The AfD also wants to deport more people who have no right to stay.

The program regards home ownership as a way to build wealth and provide for old age. The AfD opposes new rules and taxes, such as those under the Building Energy Act, which it calls a looming expropriation. It wants to abolish inheritance tax entirely in the long run and, until then, exempt homes passed on to relatives. Converting commercial buildings is to become easier, and renovating them into housing is to be funded, especially in rural areas. Cooperatives and company housing are also to be strengthened, and deportations of migrants required to leave are to be stepped up.

    Alongside a new subsidy, the plan cuts building rules and aims to abolish inheritance tax, which overall points toward less regulation and lower taxes.

  • Climateleaning growth first

    Building requirements such as those in the Building Energy Act would be pushed back in favor of lower costs for owners.

  • Migrationleaning restrictive

    Deportations would be stepped up compared with today, justified here as relief for the housing market.
