A mortgage from SMP Bank allows you to purchase any type of real estate, including non-residential buildings, so every client of the mentioned financial institution will find a suitable program for themselves. Non-targeted lending secured by the borrower’s property is also permitted, with the exception of cases of receiving money for business purposes. The only drawback of mortgage loans in SMP is the lack of special offers for young families and military personnel. At the same time, a number of large competitors provide these categories of clients with preferential conditions that allow them to save on the purchase of housing.
But the above does not mean that lending will be unprofitable. The financial institution cooperates with construction companies, therefore, in order not to overpay for the use of borrowed funds, it is enough to purchase an apartment from the bank’s partners. But before that, it is recommended to study all the options presented below.
Mortgage lending programs
Current lending programs are closely related to the type of property purchased:
- new building;
- finished housing on the secondary market;
- non-residential real estate;
- non-targeted loan secured by real estate.
Additionally, there are programs created in partnership between the lender and construction organizations. They allow you to reduce your interest rate to 6.99%. But to receive such favorable conditions, you need to contact an accredited company and make an entry fee that allows you to participate in the promotion.
In addition, clients are able to obtain a mortgage loan using 2 documents. People who decide to use this program should take into account that such conditions increase the risk that the lender will have to take, so such loans are less accessible. This is due to the fact that the rate turns out to be noticeably higher. In some cases the difference exceeds one and a half percent.
Conditions for obtaining a mortgage at SMP Bank
If we discard the partners’ proposals, the terms of the mortgage at SMP Bank are as follows:

- there is no minimum start-up payment, clients are able to do without initial payments (such a step will negatively affect the interest rate);
- the repayment period cannot exceed 25 years (for non-residential real estate - 15);
- the minimum interest rate is 10.6%, except for cases of special promotions (for non-residential real estate and non-targeted loans - 13%).
That is, the listed mortgage loans are distinguished by their availability, since to obtain them you do not need to worry about a down payment or collecting a large package of documents. But you will have to pay extra for accessibility.

You can get a loan:
- citizens of Russia;
- having permanent residence in the country;
- having continuous work experience at their last job for at least six months.
There are no age requirements for clients, but it is advisable to be 21 years old. At the same time, the credit company states that it is ready to consider any application and meet the borrower halfway if he does not meet the stated conditions, but is ready to prove his own solvency. To find out more details and find out whether you can get your application approved, it is recommended to call toll-free 88005552555 and get advice from a contact center employee.
Package of documents
The list of documents does not contain anything unusual. Borrowers will have to prepare:

Mortgage without down payment
You can get a mortgage loan without paying a down payment from the client’s own funds in two cases: under the “New Building” program and under special offers (apartments in the residential complexes discussed above).

Important! As soon as 15% of the cost of the apartment is paid, it will be possible to reduce the interest rate by 2% at the request of the borrower.
Another option here is to provide benefits when purchasing an apartment or apartment in the specified residential complexes and using maternal capital funds. Then the amount of borrowed funds will simply be reduced by the amount of this state aid (453 thousand rubles or less).
NOTE! For basic conditions, more stringent requirements will be applied to clients applying for a loan without a down payment, including with regard to insurance and other restrictions on income and the quality of credit history.

SMP Bank mortgage calculator
Knowing the terms of the loan, potential borrowers are able to find out in advance what the monthly payments will be and find out the total amount of debt, taking into account accrued interest. To do this, you need to use the mortgage calculator at SMP Bank. Its use is extremely simple and requires the user to specify the loan amount, the repayment period and the estimated interest rate, calculated based on the type of property and the selected mortgage program.
But it is important to note that the mortgage calculator only calculates approximate values, since it is impossible to know the exact interest rate in advance. Therefore, before signing a loan agreement, it is recommended to re-examine its terms so as not to run into trouble later. The precautions taken by the borrower can save him from many problems.
How to apply
The easiest way to apply is to visit the official website of the credit company and fill out a special form. It requires you to honestly indicate your own income, provide personal information (last name, gender, age), and select appropriate lending parameters (amount, term). After that, all you have to do is click the button that sends the application to the credit manager and wait a little for a response. It usually arrives within half an hour. The maximum time for consideration of an application is three days. After receiving a response with approval, all you have to do is follow the advice of the service manager.

- lending is carried out in rubles;
- the repayment period of the debt should not exceed 25 years (minimum period - 3 years);

How to pay for a mortgage

Most debt repayment options involve instant deposit of money, however, when using interbank transfers, you should take into account the time allotted for such an operation (usually from 1 to 5 business days).

Customer reviews about SMP Bank mortgages
To get rid of the last doubts, it is recommended to read customer reviews on loans. They talk about things that usually go unnoticed in the early stages, but unexpectedly become clear later. It is important to take into account that many reviews are written under the influence of emotions (satisfied borrowers rarely share their experience with others) and do not contain anything important or interesting. Therefore, when deciding to find useful information, you should separate truly valuable advice from useless comments that do not contain anything of substance. This approach will allow you to obtain more information about lending and servicing, but will eliminate unnecessary negative impressions from what you read.
