Spanish term or phrase: destinados a la habitación
"Los sistemas de comercialización consistentes en la integración de grupos de consumidores que aportan periódicamente sumas de dinero para ser administradas por un tercero, únicamente podrán operar para efectos de adquisición de bienes determinados o determinables, sean muebles nuevos o inmuebles ***destinados a la habitación*** o a su uso como locales comerciales, en los términos que señale el reglamento respectivo, y sólo podrán ponerse en práctica previa autorización de la Secretaría."

¿"Designated for residence purposes"? ¿"which are intended to be occupied"?

Gracias.
