ELIGIBLE applicants can draw lots to rent 334 apartment units of the two buildings of Thukha Dagon Public Rental Housing, the Department of Urban and Housing Development (DUHD) said.
The department stated that 135 in Thakayta Township, 32 in Mingaladon Township and 167 in Thingangyun Township are titled to draw lots and the lists are notified to the respective township’s General Administration Department. The Thukha Dagon Public Rental Housing grants a five-year lease permit.
DUHD granted a five-year lease at Thukha Dagon public rental housing to those who have difficulty in accommodation. Unscrupulous fraudsters are attempting to scam vulnerable individuals with fraudulent listings by providing fake rental guarantees.
Furthermore, some who have rental resident permits are also found to rent them out again. Consequently, their lease permit will be cancelled and they will face legal action under the existing laws.
DUHD notified that five buildings that will be completely developed soon will be put out for lease.
The Housing Supervision Committee and Leasing and Disciplinary Committee notified that those who are allowed to stay at the housing units under the lease agreement must follow the rules and regulations of the contract. They must not rehire, transfer, sell or mortgage the apartment units to others. They must not fail to move into the apartment as well.
Those who violate the rules will get their rental permit revoked and the head of the household registration is subjected to legal action. — NN/KK
