Description
The investment grant for maintenance work in multi-family houses in Vienna supports private households, businesses, cooperatives, non-profit organizations, and public institutions in the upkeep of commonly used building parts. Funded are works in accordance with the Tenancy Law (MRG) on common areas that are not part of the building’s thermal envelope, including measures to prevent health hazards, the maintenance of existing shared facilities, the installation of legally required public facilities, as well as the usability restoration of vacant apartments. The elimination of serious building damages and up to 10% improvement works related to maintenance measures are also eligible. Applications can be submitted to wohnfonds_wien indefinitely before the start of the measures.
For the application, a current land register excerpt, topographical documents (rent and owner lists), and, if applicable, construction plans, construction orders, and cost estimates are required. A prerequisite for approval is that the property is either already in proper maintenance condition or is brought to such condition with the same construction method. Furthermore, the funding must be linked to a thermal-energy renovation of the building, and the construction or conversion costs including financing costs must not exceed 80% of the eligible revenues of the next five years. The aim of this funding is to minimize health risks, guarantee the functionality of shared structures, and secure the quality of living in Vienna’s multi-family houses in the long term.
