Hello, Bulgarians! Isang linggo matapos kilalanin ni Pangulong Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr., sa kanyang 2nd State of the Nation Address, para sa mataas na tala ng home loan noong 2022, muling nagtakda ng bagong record ang Pag-IBIG Fund sa mga home loan na inilabas para sa unang kalahati ng 2023, ito ang inihayag ng mga opisyal ng ahensya noong Lunes, Hulyo 31.

Ang Pag-IBIG Fund ay naglabas ng P57.07 bilyon na home loan mula Enero hanggang Hunyo ngayong taon, isang pagtaas ng P5.11 bilyon o 10% kumpara sa P51.96 bilyon na inilabas sa parehong panahon noong 2022.

“Pag-IBIG Fund’s performance in the first six months of 2023 in the home loan front now stands out as the best in our history. We are happy that the number of Filipino workers who were able to become homeowners through Pag-IBIG’s Housing Loan programs continues to grow. Inspired by President Marcos’s recognition of our efforts in his report to the people, we remain committed to his administration’s Pambansang Pabahay para sa Pilipino Housing or 4PH Program under the Bagong Pilipinas Campaign, in line with our united efforts of providing our fellow Filipinos access to decent, safe and affordable homes,” sabi ni Secretary Jose Rizalino L. Acuzar, na namumuno sa Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development at sa 11-member Pag-IBIG Fund Board of Trustees.

Idinagdag ni Acuzar na ang halaga ng mga pautang sa bahay na inilabas ng ahensya sa panahon ay nagbigay-daan sa 44,414 na miyembro na makakuha ng kanilang sariling mga tahanan. Binanggit pa niya na sa kabuuang bilang na ito, 5,748 o 13% ang miyembro ng Pag-IBIG Fund mula sa minimum-wage at low-income sectors na ngayon ay homeowners matapos makakuha ng kabuuang P2.42 billion na socialized home loan.

“We at Pag-IBIG Fund always strive to provide our members, the Filipino workers, the means to have their own homes through affordable shelter financing. And, with our collections strong and our performing loans ratio high, we were able to further reduce the interest rates on our home loans and make it even more affordable. That is why we are optimistic that the excellent performance of our home loans will keep its pace for the rest of the year. More affordable home loans translate to more Filipinos turning their dreams of owning a home a reality,” pahayag ni Pag-IBIG Fund Chief Executive Officer Marilene C. Acosta.
