– as current land stock can only clear 50% of Reg 4 backlog
With limited land available across Region Four to meet the increasing housing demand, the Guyana Government is looking to open new lands within Silica City on the Linden-Soesdyke Highway and in Region Three to reduce the massive housing application backlog across the Demerara-Mahaica region.
Currently, there is a housing backlog of approximately 78,000 pending applications across Guyana – over 50,000 of those coming from Region Four alone.
