Renovation subsidies
ARA grants renovation subsidies for
- the renovation of homes of elderly and disabled people

In addition, housing companies can apply for
- a lift subsidy for the installation of a new lift
- an accessibility subsidy for removing impediments to accessibility
- a subsidy for electric vehicle charging infrastructure, when the installation of charging points requires changes to the building’s electrical systems.
