Government Pushes 11K New Lots in Region Three
from Guyana News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
The government is racing to deliver nearly 11,000 new house lots in Region Three before next year, tackling a massive housing backlog across nine regions—except Region Four, still buried under applications from 2020 and 2021, pushing wait times to 3-4 more years. The main hurdle? Land scarcity—most state plots are privately owned or used for farming. Focus is on Wales, where a former sugar estate has been reclaimed, but development costs soar at $5-7 million per lot due to excavation, drainage, and roadwork. Billions are being committed to meet the deadline, with a new initiative soon to help homeowners actually build. Officials urge patience and flexibility, especially in Wales, where upcoming road upgrades make it a prime spot. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
