Córdoba Hands Over 113 Affordable Senior Rentals as Moreno and Montero Stage First Campaign Face‑Off

The handover became an early campaign showcase that underscored a funding dispute.

Overview

  • The second phase of the Sama Naharro project delivers 113 affordable rentals for people aged 65+, confirmed at a total cost of €10.5 million jointly funded by all levels of government and the municipal promoter.
  • The published breakdown lists €5 million from the central government, €1.7 million from the Junta de Andalucía, €1 million plus the land from Córdoba’s city hall, and €2.8 million from Vimcorsa.
  • The new units include 99 one‑bedroom flats and 14 two‑bedroom flats, are fully accessible with an A energy rating, and carry social rents ranging from €186 to €360, with 150 storage rooms provided.
  • Juanma Moreno was applauded on site and downplayed the funding tussle as he emphasized key delivery, while María Jesús Montero highlighted state transfers and defended the national Housing Law, citing price reductions where applied.
  • Reporters framed the event as the opening round of the Andalusian pre‑election season, with housing policy, public services and regional financing setting the themes ahead of the June 2026 vote.
