Record checked Oct 27, 2026 · official source confirmed 14 Nov, 06:02 UTC
Summary
Non-repayable Hungarian family housing grant for buying (with modernisation/extension) or building a home in more than 2,600 preferred small settlements of up to 5,000 people, or on farmsteads outside settlement limits: HUF 1 million with one child, 4 million with two, 15 million with three or more; roughly half those amounts for modernising or extending a home you already own.
Dream spread
A family grant of up to HUF 15 million toward a home in the Hungarian countryside.
Relocation reality check
Only for families with (existing or pledged) children, and at least one parent needs 2 years of Hungarian social-insurance (TB) history — so it is realistically for people already living and working legally in Hungary. Only listed settlements qualify (Annex 2 of Government Decree 302/2023). The grant carries conditions on living in the home and can be reclaimed if they are broken; read the decree for exact periods before committing.
