The first dwelling must belong to one of the cadastral categories between A/2 and A/7 and the appurtenances must belong to cadastral categories C/2, C/6, C/7.

The purchase, in whole or in quotas, of the first dwelling unit by a spouse, civil partner or de facto cohabitee, even if not cohabiting, by relatives and relatives-in-law up to the first degree and by sole proprietorships or companies related to them is not eligible for the grant.
