Introduce a home-buying grant for families
The CDU wants the state to pay families a flat grant when they first buy a home to live in. Under the concept "Aus Eins mach Zwei" (turn one into two), single- and two-family houses that have become too large are to yield extra housing through conversion, added floors or division.
The CDU wants to help families buy their first own home. Each parent would get 10,000 euros. Each child under 18 adds 5,000 euros. Large houses should be easier to split into two homes.
The grant is 10,000 euros per parent and 5,000 euros per minor child. For converting existing houses, owners would get advice, simpler building procedures and low-cost programs from the state-owned development bank. Turning commercial properties into housing and adding floors to buildings are also to become easier. The CDU wants extra support for age-appropriate conversions so older owners can stay in their homes. Multigenerational housing and low-barrier conversions are to be supported as well.

A new state grant and funding programs are additional public benefits, even though they promote private ownership and simplify building procedures.
