Electoral competition is one of these variables and thus becomes a key aspect to study in order to understand one of the driving forces behind housing investment. Through quantitative-descriptive methods and correlational analysis, this paper uses secondary information to examine the Chilean public budget and the results of presidential elections over the 1990-2015 period. The results suggest that each administration modified the housing budget during electoral periods, a situation that grew in intensity when there was greater opposition. In addition, it is possible to observe that the ruling parties demonstrated their economic power through “costly gestures” with major investments and the provision of housing subsidies to validate their capacity. However at the same time, like in a “repetitive game” voters observed that these efforts were only made during electoral years, thus being interpreted as electoral populism instead of a demonstration of efficacy. Los presupuestos nacionales para vivienda responden a muchas variables además del propio déficit habitacional. La competencia electoral es una de ellas, por lo cual su estudio toma relevancia para comprender uno de los orígenes de la inversión en vivienda. Para ello, se escoge el caso de Chile, que mediante un estudio cuantitativo-descriptivo con análisis correlacional utiliza información secundaria sobre su presupuesto público desde 1990 al año 2015 y los resultados de elecciones presidenciales de aquel periodo. Los resultados sugieren que los gobiernos manejaron la glosa de vivienda del presupuesto nacional en periodos electorales, acción acentuada cuando la oposición fue más fuerte. Además, es posible observar que el oficialismo envió “señales costosas” con grandes inversiones en subsidios habitacionales para dar constancia de sus capacidades, pero al mismo tiempo, tal como en un “juego repetitivo”, los votantes observaron que aquellos esfuerzos ocurrían solo en años electorales, por lo que las señales podrían haber sido interpretadas como populismo electoral en vez de una demostración de eficacia.
