The National Land Company of Tunisia has announced plans to launch a tender for rental housing projects in Sousse in 2027. The company's general manager, Basma Besta, revealed the plans during a working session held at the Sousse governorate to discuss the implementation of housing projects. The projects aim to provide affordable housing for low- and middle-income citizens.

Two rental housing projects are planned for Sousse, one in the Olympic City in Sousse Jawhara and the other in the delegation of Nafiouna. The Olympic City project will be built on a plot of land owned by the National Land Company, and the tender will be launched in the first quarter of 2027. The Nafiouna project will be built on a state-owned plot of land, and the tender will be launched in the third quarter of 2027.

The rental housing program for 2026 is currently under implementation, with two projects underway. One project involves the construction of 14 collective housing units in the Hachad neighborhood of Sousse Jawhara, which started on August 5, 2026. The other project involves the construction of 30 housing units in Sidi Abdelhamid, which is currently in the evaluation phase of bids.

Sousse Governor, Sofien Tannouri, emphasized the importance of supporting the implementation of the presidential program for rental housing to provide affordable housing for low- and middle-income citizens. He also stressed the need for coordination among all stakeholders to overcome any challenges and ensure the successful implementation of the program.

The National Land Company's plans to launch rental housing projects in Sousse aim to address the housing needs of low- and middle-income citizens. The company's efforts are part of the Tunisian government's initiatives to provide affordable housing and improve the living standards of its citizens.

The tender for the rental housing projects in Sousse is expected to attract investors and developers who can provide high-quality housing units at affordable prices. The National Land Company's decision to launch the tender in 2027 is expected to boost the housing sector in Sousse and provide new opportunities for citizens to access affordable housing.

The implementation of the rental housing projects in Sousse is expected to have a positive impact on the local economy and improve the living standards of citizens.
