10,000 euros from the state for every apartment buyer: This is how a federal state wants to solve the construction crisis. The state of Hesse is currently showing how this could be done, where the newly elected black-red state government has put the issue of housing high on the agenda.

The construction industry has already positioned many of these suggestions at the federal level - but none of them have been implemented yet, despite announcements to the contrary. According to reports, the coalition dispute in Berlin has also struck here. The SPD-led building ministry is said to have initiated an adjustment to the building code.
