Scheme

The Own Land, Own Home Scheme (locally known as Apni Zameen Apna Ghar) is a government-led financing and assistance program that enables homeowners who already possess residential land to construct safe, resilient houses via affordable installment plans and subsidies. This guide explains the scheme’s aims, benefits, eligibility, required documents and a straightforward online application process to help you apply with confidence.

Why the scheme matters

This program targets households that need construction capital but already own land. By providing targeted subsidies and long-term repayment options, the scheme reduces housing vulnerability, creates local employment in construction, and raises living standards across participating communities.

Key benefits

• Subsidized construction assistance for low- and middle-income households.
• Low monthly installments to fit household budgets.
• Flexible house designs and professional supervision options.
• Digital, transparent application and approval process.

Scheme

Who can apply?

Eligibility centers on legal land ownership, Pakistani citizenship and household income within the specified bracket. Applicants must not be simultaneous beneficiaries of other housing subsidy programs.
