Architects question costs, timescales and quality of 1.º Direito homes
As Portugal's PRR programme reaches its final phase, many of the 1.º Direito homes remain untransferred and several architects involved in public procurement are publicly questioning the projects' costs, delivery timescales and construction quality. Concerns focus on cost inflation, contractual timelines slipping, inconsistent build standards and weaknesses in procurement oversight, raising risks for occupants and the housing market; architects urge tighter quality assurance, clearer accountability and revised procurement practices to protect beneficiaries and public investment.
