Up to Two Years Without Deposit or Rent

Sancheong County in Gyeongnam announced on the 10th that it will provide public rental housing to support stable housing for wildfire victims.

The support will be provided by utilizing vacant units in the Sancheong Sinan Haengbok Public Housing owned by Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH).

Residents can live there for a minimum of six months up to a maximum of two years without paying a deposit or monthly rent, only covering utility and maintenance fees. Sancheong County plans to actively promote the application and procedures for public rental housing and promises to process applications quickly if wildfire victims express their intention to move in.
