The Mato Grosso government has achieved several milestones in social housing and land management. Two state housing initiatives, “Do Terreno à Chave” and the Mato Grosso Housing System (SiHabMT), were awarded the 2026 Merit Seal by the Brazilian Association of Cohabs and Public Housing Agents and the National Forum of Secretaries of Housing and Urban Development. These projects, managed by MT Participações e Projetos, have facilitated the delivery of 48,000 units through improved construction technology and infrastructure coordination.

In addition to housing construction, the state has focused on land regularization. In Cuiabá, the Mato Grosso Land Institute delivered 278 definitive property titles to families in the Jardim Alvorada neighborhood. This action is part of a broader effort that has seen more than 27,000 definitive deeds issued for urban and rural properties since 2019, with over 12,000 of those distributed within Cuiabá.
