The statistics of SBV unveiled that as of November 30, about 29.239 trillion VND had been disbursed, with outstanding loans remaining at 24.116 trillion VND.
Currently, the disbursement is being hastened and will finish by the end of this month.
The SBV said the housing stimulus package significantly contributed to the recovery of the property market, reducing stockpiles and removing difficulties for developers, as well as for the recovery of the economy.
Notably, the housing stimulus package enabled more than 50,000 households to purchase affordable homes.
Nearly 86 percent of the preferential loan package was provided to buyers. Disbursements for buyers are to continue through the end of this year, though disbursements ended for developers on June 1.
Besides, a total of 5.395 trillion VND from the package was provided to developers.

The housing stimulus package started on June 1, 2013, with the aim to encourage development and purchase social housing projects and affordable homes, providing impetus to the stagnant real estate sector.
Disbursements from the package were previously scheduled to finish by June 1, but due to disappointing results the Government extended the deadline until the end of this year.
After the 30 trillion VND package, the property market is still looking for new loan packages for social and affordable housing.
In June, the Prime Minister decided upon a preferential lending interest rate of 4.8 percent for social housing purchases, to be offered by the Bank for Social Policies by December 31. Although the deadline nears, preferential loans remained inaccessible due to the shortage in sources of capital.
