arrendamento acessível
"Affordable rent": a municipal or state programme in which flats are let at a fixed price well below the market rate. This is not social housing: there is no waiting list based on need, but a competition with a cap on the household's annual income, and when applicants are tied, places are drawn by lot. Applications open for a few weeks and then close.
Where you come across it. Your câmara municipal's website, announcements of application rounds, the Porta 65 programme and municipal programmes.
Not to be confused with renda apoiada: there the rent is worked out from household income, whereas here the price is fixed. Each round usually offers only a handful of flats, and it is easy to miss the deadline.
