How to get a mortgage for young professionals: conditions and requirements

Government authorities provide support to qualified young specialists just starting their professional careers.
One of the advantages provided by the federal authorities for this category of citizens is preferential mortgage lending for the purchase of their own living space.

Offers from banking institutions

Today, most financial institutions are loyal to newly minted specialists, allowing them to take out quite profitable mortgage loans characterized by special conditions.

This is due to the fact that such citizens, mostly, do not have entries in their work books, which cannot negatively judge their credit history.

The tables below will discuss the conditions for providing preferential mortgages for beginning professionals.

Snezhinsky Bank

The list of financial institutions is not limited to the above. Loans can be issued at any convenient bank.

Grounds and categories of employees for receiving privileges

The main condition for obtaining such a loan is the employee’s solvency. The bank is certified by the 2-NDFL certificate provided with the documents.

Below is a sample of a 2-NDFL certificate:

The point of the program is to receive 30% of the loan amount in order to purchase housing and work in the budget area. If the amount of payment on loan obligations does not exceed forty percent of earnings, then there is a chance of getting the mortgage approved.

Railway workers

Mortgage for young employees of Russian Railways is a program that provides an affordable loan for employees of this organization. The essence of the program is the minimum down payment for housing, which is 10%, and sometimes none at all.

In this case, the borrower purchases a special subsidy, under which the monthly payment becomes minimal. Under the terms of this program, railway mortgages are provided to young employees at a rate of 10.5%, and for more experienced employees at a rate of 12%.

Age requirements include 19 to 65 years of age at the time of calculation. The recommended salary should be twice the pay. Purchasing with such conditions may only be possible for employees of the Russian Railways company.

Russian Railways mortgage for a young specialist

Relatively recently, it became possible for young professionals to obtain a mortgage for their own home using a company current account.

This is done to attract young and talented personnel, reduce turnover and increase labor productivity.

Banking institutions provide reduced interest rates on mortgage lending for businesses. The losses of financial institutions are covered by the companies that hire the employee.

As an example, the Russian Railways social program “Young Specialist” helps to take out a preferential mortgage loan from VTB 24.
The railway company offers the following conditions:

• Providing a loan in national currency;
• At an annual interest rate of 10.5% (only two of them are charged from the occupying employee);
• No down payment required;
• The duration of the loan is more than twenty-five years.

Each of the Russian Railways employees can apply for a mortgage at their workplace by signing an agreement with their employer.

The issuance of preferential loans provides the railway company with guarantees of work activity for the term of the mortgage loan.

If an employee is dismissed before the deadline, part of the funds will have to be reimbursed back, and the interest rate will also increase.

How to get a social mortgage

If an employee of a budgetary institution, law enforcement agency or Russian army is interested in receiving preferential loans, then he will have to adhere to the following procedure:

1. Apply for government support directly through your leadership in a timely manner.
2. Wait for approval of the preferential lending program and obtain appropriate documentary evidence.
3. Select the most suitable property and contact the bank with documents and an application for a preferential mortgage for a young specialist.
4. When the loan is approved, enter into a loan agreement and take out insurance for real estate and other risks.
5. Make the initial payment yourself, or use a government subsidy for this.

Subsequently, after registering the property in Rosreestr, transfer all necessary documents to the lender within 90 days. Subsequently, all that remains is to repay the loan on time. In this case, the corresponding subsidy can be spent on repaying the loan in equal shares, or in full with partial or full early repayment.

Important! It should be understood that the state cannot refuse subsidies to an employee if he meets all the parameters; in turn, the lender has the right to refuse a preferential mortgage if the borrower does not meet a number of requirements.

Features of lending at Sberbank and other financial institutions

Banks offer different lending conditions, as does Sberbank for public sector employees with a social mortgage, but all of them are aimed at facilitating a mortgage loan for them.

Conditions of the “Social Mortgage” until 2018

Let us immediately note that each region and constituent entity of the Russian Federation has its own social housing lending programs, and imposes certain requirements on citizens who want to take advantage of this program. It is for this reason that the conditions in force in your city need to be clarified with the Administration.

What types of government assistance are there:

1. Partial subsidization of mortgage interest rates. In other words, the bank assigns you one rate, and the state reduces it by a certain amount. Thus, you reduce your expenses, monthly payment and final overpayment. It is noteworthy that this form of support can be implemented both through government subsidies and through special offers from the bank itself,
2. Subsidy for payment of the down payment or part of the cost of the purchased property. In this case, you receive funds that partially cover your debt. On average, it ranges from 30 to 40% of the estimated cost of housing, the exact amount will depend on the number of family members and the cost of one square in your region,
3. Sale of real estate from social housing stock. In this case, the price will be preferential, i.e. much lower than market value. Most often it is offered to employees of various government agencies.

It is noteworthy that you cannot choose which form of support you want to receive. The decision in this situation is made by local authorities, who individually select the most optimal solution for each application.

Who can participate in the program

Who can call themselves a young specialist and participate in the program:

• The first and most important thing is a university graduate who gets a job in the first year after graduation;
• The second is that the graduate does not just find a job, but in the direction of a higher educational institution;
• The graduate must be from a budget department;
• Successfully passed the state exam and defended his diploma;
• Employed - officially;
• The participant’s age does not exceed 35 years;
• He is on the waiting list for improved living conditions.

What specialties does this apply to? As a rule, these are budget positions:

• Teacher;
• Military;
• Doctor;
• Scientist;
• Police officer;
• Employees of the Russian Railway and other budget sectors.

But if a private company subsidizes such support for its employees, then they can also participate.

Since the lender is the bank, its requirements for borrowers must also be taken into account. Average parameters:

• Age from 20 to 65 years;
• Citizenship and permanent residence in the Russian Federation;
• Official employment with an income that allows you to pay the requested amount;
• Positive credit history and no criminal record.

The financial institution looks at the length of service at the current place of employment; as a rule, the required period ranges from 3 to 6 months. If a co-borrower is involved, for example relatives, then his income can also be taken into account. The spouse automatically becomes a co-borrower, so the same requirements are put forward to him. You will need a marriage registration certificate, a marriage contract, a passport and the written consent of the spouse.

If the borrower and his spouse have children, they can also submit an application for consideration of a housing loan for families with children. The necessary condition is that there be at least 2 children and at least one child was born no earlier than 2020.

The family of a young specialist can also use maternity capital to pay for the loan.
