After a cabinet meeting in Rome, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said the plan aims to make more than 100,000 homes available over 10 years.
The measures are intended to ease pressure from housing and broader cost-of-living strains facing Italians.
The initiative forms part of Meloni's effort to show problem-solving credentials ahead of Italy's 2027 general election.

Facing a sputtering economy and a recent referendum defeat, is Meloni's 100,000-home promise a viable plan or a political gambit?
