“Total housing costs should be no more than 30 per cent of total income to be affordable. The average Caymanian can afford $1,490 a month for housing. The affordability gap is significant as average rent is $1,945 and a mortgage is $3,863.”

"The Government waived $26.5 million in stamp duty between 2019 and 2024, but it is unclear how much of this was for affordable homes."

[Office of the Auditor General @oagcayman]

“The Government spent almost $68 million between 2019 and 2024 on programmes and initiatives to improve affordable housing.”
