politician Panama

Elisa Suárez is the director of the National Council of Housing Promoters (Convivienda) in Panama. Recently, she has been in the news due to her warnings about the stagnation in the new housing market, highlighting the closure of over 75 projects and the loss of more than 5,400 jobs since June of last year. Suárez emphasizes the impact of the impending expiration of the Solidarity Housing Fund and the uncertainties surrounding the application of the Preferential Interest Law, which have left many families unable to access subsidized mortgage loans. She advocates for reforms that would address the needs of the middle class seeking affordable housing options and calls for urgent government action to revitalize the housing sector.
