Since 2019, EMVS Madrid's portfolio has grown by nearly 3,800 apartments. The Deputy Mayor of Madrid and municipal spokesperson, Inma Sanz, highlighted that the Almeida Government has completed 3,383 new homes across 41 developments during its seven-year term. These figures were communicated to the Governing Board by the Delegate for Housing Policies and President of EMVS Madrid, Álvaro González, on the occasion of the company's 45th anniversary.
Currently, EMVS Madrid has approximately 5,700 new homes in various stages of development. These include the 2,200 homes from the Plan Suma Vivienda, a public-private collaboration. The first phase of this plan, comprising 1,600 apartments, is already underway, and the second phase, with an additional 600 apartments, is currently being tendered.
The Madrid City Council is promoting the construction of around 770 new industrialized homes. These modern construction techniques aim to expand the municipal portfolio while reducing execution times and environmental impact.
According to data from the Ministry of Housing and Urban Agenda, EMVS Madrid has built 17% of the protected homes for rent without option to buy across Spain in the last two years. The municipal company registered 1,329 final certifications for this type of housing in 2024 and 2025, compared to the 7,834 registered nationally. The Deputy Mayor emphasized that these figures position EMVS Madrid as the leading public housing developer in Spain.
During the current term, 2,619 homes have been allocated through lotteries, with 65% being newly constructed. Of these newly built homes allocated by lottery, 90% have gone to individuals under 35 and families with children. Since June 2019, a total of 5,088 homes have been allocated, with 59% being newly constructed.
Madrid leads the ranking for public housing under affordable rent schemes in Spain, according to the Special Bulletin on Social Housing 2024 from the Ministry of Housing and Urban Agenda. The capital also leads in public housing investment, allocating over 811 million euros between 2020 and 2023, which is 316% more than Barcelona (256 million euros), the second-highest investor. Madrid also leads in per capita investment during these years among major Spanish cities.
