The doors to more than 200 homes in Brooklyn, Cape Town were unlocked on Thursday as part of a special housing initiative.
The project is the brainchild of the national Human Settlements Department, the provincial government and a Housing Development Agency.
Tenants’ rent will be determined by their income.
Western Cape Premier Helen Zille said all parties must work together.
“Housing is a partnership. The state does as much as it can, but every human being has a responsibility and in the past in South Africa we have neglected to emphasise this partnership,” she said.
