Help for mortgage borrowers telephone. AHK program: state financial support for those in need of housing

New rules for the state program to help mortgage borrowers who find themselves in difficult financial situations came into force in Russia on August 22. At the end of July, Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev signed a decree allocating another 2 billion rubles from the government reserve fund for the program as a contribution to the authorized capital of the Housing Mortgage Lending Agency (AHML), and on August 11 - a decree clarifying the conditions for the implementation of the program.

According to the government, the allocated funds will make it possible to restructure at least 1.3 thousand mortgage housing loans, c-ib.ru reports.

The program itself came into force seven days after the official legal information was published on the website, explained Alexey Nidens, managing director of the Agency for Housing Mortgage Lending (AHML, program operator).

“But borrowers can seek advice and submit an application to banks for participation in the program now - the procedure for working under the program is already well known to most credit institutions,” says Niedens.

As AHML clarified, 97 banks that collaborated with AHML previously under the previous version of the program are participating in the program.

Borrowers will be able to take part in the program if at least 12 months have passed from the date of receiving a mortgage loan to the date of filing an application for restructuring, and their monthly loan payment has increased by at least 30%. The collateral housing must be the only home of the mortgagor's family. In this case, it is allowed for the aggregate share of his family members in the ownership of no more than one other residential premises in the amount of no more than 50% from April 30, 2015.

The new stage of the program to support mortgage borrowers provides for more flexible criteria for providing assistance than in the old program, says Deputy Minister of Finance Alexei Moiseev.

This will be facilitated by a special interdepartmental commission, which should be created before September 1, 2017. The composition of the commission and the procedure for its work will be determined by the Russian Ministry of Construction. The commission will have the right to make decisions on providing support to citizens who formally do not meet certain conditions of the program, but are in dire need of it.

For example, by decision of the interdepartmental commission, in exceptional cases, the basic amount of assistance from the state can be increased from 1.5 million rubles, but not more than twice.

“Mortgage borrowers who took out a loan both in rubles and in foreign currency will be able to apply for participation in the program. The size of the monthly payment on a foreign currency loan may increase due to changes in the exchange rate, and for a loan initially in rubles - for example, due to an increase in the interest rate, if it was not initially fixed for the entire loan term,” AHML explained to TASS.

The basic amount of assistance from the state will be 30% of the balance of the loan amount, but not more than 1.5 million rubles, in special cases - up to 3 million rubles.

The restructuring of a ruble mortgage will take place at a rate not higher than that in effect on the date of concluding the restructuring agreement.

Borrowers are also exempt from paying penalties under the terms of the loan, but payments already made for penalties are not refundable. They are also prohibited from charging fees for loan restructuring.

If the loan was issued in foreign currency, it must be changed to rubles at a rate not higher than that established by the Bank of Russia at the time of loan restructuring.

At the same time, the rate on a restructured foreign currency mortgage should not be higher than 11.5%.

To reduce loan obligations, the borrower may be offered one of the types of restructuring: for loans previously issued in foreign currency, it is possible to change the currency to rubles at a rate lower than that established by the Bank of Russia at the time of concluding the restructuring agreement; one-time forgiveness of part of the loan amount.

When concluding a restructuring agreement, the lender does not have the right to charge fees to the borrower for actions related to the restructuring, or to shorten the loan term.

Instability of economic realities and the emergence of private life difficulties may lead to the fact that previously assumed obligations to repay the mortgage debt cannot be fulfilled by the borrower in the same amount. Banking organizations are interested in ensuring that citizens do not accumulate loan debt, so they restructure the debt or give credit holidays. But all these steps are not always able to help families who find themselves in difficult situations.

To receive government support, you must meet the established criteria and go through the registration procedure.

Since 2016, a government program began to operate aimed at helping mortgage borrowers who, due to current circumstances, cannot repay their loan. Certain amounts of money are allocated from the budget, which are used to partially repay the mortgage debt.

Mortgage as a special lending program was developed and implemented in the Russian Federation to enable citizens to purchase real estate without major initial investments. The very essence of this program is to help people. Many families have the opportunity not to save for many years for housing, but to buy it today and, while living in it, pay off the borrowed amounts. The mortgage is issued for a period of up to 30 years, and all funds spent on housing, along with interest for their use, are paid in monthly installments.

The mortgage program is good and convenient for everyone, but it also has a significant disadvantage - you cannot predict your well-being for decades to come. Every person's life undergoes changes and, unfortunately, not all of them are positive. Over many decades, a citizen can start a family, children, lose a high-paying job or even health. The very principle of mortgage lending implies that if a person can no longer pay monthly installments, the living space is sold and the bank takes the balance of the unpaid debt, and the difference in the amount is returned to the former borrower. Of course, such an outcome is considered deplorable, because years of contributions go down the drain, not to mention the fact that the home owner ends up on the street. To prevent such a situation, a state program to support mortgage borrowers was developed in 2015.

Legislative framework

This system began to operate in 2016. Its foundations are set out in Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 373 “On the main conditions for the implementation of the assistance program...” dated April 20, 2015. For less than two years it was suspended, but then resumed again. In August 2017, the Government of the Russian Federation decided to resume the program that had been stopped by that time, which was enshrined in Resolution No. 961 of August 11, 2017. The expiration date for state support was not specified and in 2018 it is valid to the established extent. To date, government support has been provided to almost 19,000 families who find themselves in a difficult financial situation.

Resolution No. 373 has been constantly refined and improved since its first adoption; new significant points were introduced into it that improved the interaction procedure and took into account the interests, first of all, of borrowers. The document specifies the basic conditions for participation in the program and the amount of funds allocated from a special government fund. In 2017, two billion rubles were allocated for the implementation of the program.

Supporting body

The program of state support for mortgage borrowers is carried out through the Ministry of Construction of the Russian Federation, and is directly implemented by the joint-stock company “Agency for Housing Mortgage Lending” (AHML). This structure is authorized to consider candidates applying for monetary government support and to stimulate housing lending.

AHML is a state organization and its budget consists of 100% state capital money. This structure has a clear purpose - to provide support to banks that engage in long-term mortgage lending.

Cooperation between banks and AHML takes place according to the following scheme:

  1. A citizen applies to a credit institution and receives a loan from it to purchase housing.
  2. If certain conditions are met, the borrower turns to AHML for state support. The allocated money is not given in cash to the needy, but is transferred directly to the creditor for partial repayment of the debt.
  3. The bank restores its financial reserves using the funds issued, and the transferred amount is written off from the payer’s debt.

In such operations, the bank respects its interests, and the borrower receives financial support from the state and extends the possibility of repaying the debt.

Borrower categories

Government Decree No. 373 provides a complete list of citizens who have the right to count on participation in the developed program. The list was approved in 2015 and slightly adjusted in November 2016. It includes:

  1. Parents who have one or more minor children.
  2. Guardians or trustees raising one minor child or more children under 18 years of age.
  3. Citizens who took part in hostilities.
  4. People with any degree of disability, subject to official confirmation of this fact.
  5. Parents raising a disabled child.
  6. Parents who support children over 18 years of age, but under 24 years of age, provided that they are full-time students in educational institutions.

The conditions apply only to people who have Russian citizenship, a Russian passport and permanent registration in Russia.

Requirements for borrowers

Repayment of a mortgage at the expense of the state is possible, but it is necessary to meet established requirements. The borrower must fall under one of the listed categories and be a citizen of the Russian Federation, but this does not guarantee that assistance will be provided.

One of the most important indicators is the level of wages at the moment and the ratio of the size of the loan payment on the day of registration and on the day of applying to AHML. The applicant must have a low monthly income. The salary limit is calculated as follows:

  1. The mortgage payment amount is deducted from your monthly income.
  2. The remaining amount should not exceed twice the minimum subsistence level. The PM of a specific region is taken as a basis. The amount of income is divided among all family members.

The calculation takes into account data for the last three months. AHML specialists proceed from the fact that the previously established loan payment should increase by at least 30%. This situation often occurs for those citizens who have taken out a foreign currency mortgage or taken out a loan at a floating interest rate.

Loan requirements

To receive financial assistance, it is extremely important that the loan itself meets the established requirements. They apply mainly to the amount of the mortgage loan. It is extremely unreasonable to set any restrictions in monetary terms, because the cost of residential properties varies depending on the region and locality, so the requirements are put forward directly to the real estate taken on a mortgage. Collateral housing must meet the following criteria:

  1. The area of ​​the property must be no higher than 45 m2 for a 1-room apartment, 65 m2 for a 2-room apartment and 85 m2 for a 3-room apartment.
  2. The cost of one square meter is calculated based on the average price in a given locality. Exceeding the average is allowed by no more than 60%.
  3. The mortgaged property is the borrower's only living space. If he has a share in other premises, then it is important that it does not exceed 50% of the total area. Data on the availability of other real estate is taken from 2015.

Please note that all of the above restrictions on credit and living space do not apply to families with three or more minor children.

Conditions for participation in the program

You can apply for state support only if you meet one of the main conditions, which is often not taken into account by debtors - the mortgage loan must have been issued at least a year ago. If the loan was taken out just a few months ago, you should not count on debt restructuring. All efforts of the state are not aimed at freeing the borrower from loan obligations. Support only reduces payments to an acceptable level, leaving the citizen with an amount that he can repay on his own.

You can count on financial assistance only once. Moreover, if the application is rejected due to insufficient grounds, the citizen can appeal to a special interdepartmental commission. It was approved in 2017 and allows for a more individual approach to considering situations. The commission can not only decide on the need for assistance on a previously rejected application, but also increase the amount of compensation by any number of units, up to 100%.

Help format

The final result of government assistance is expressed in monetary terms, but which format will be chosen in each specific case depends on many circumstances. There are two main ways to reduce your monthly payments:

  1. Reducing the borrower's debt obligations.
  2. Converting a foreign currency loan into ruble equivalent.

The choice of option depends, first of all, on the initial data of the loan taken.

The state support program was developed after the economic crisis significantly weakened the financial capabilities of payers. A few years ago, mortgages were issued at variable rates, since this aspect was not regulated by the state. This procedure well protects the credit institution itself from loss of profit, but for the borrower it can become a debt trap, which is what actually happened to many payers.

Difficult circumstances and the fact that the income level of a large number of citizens has seriously fallen, had a negative impact primarily on their solvency.

Reducing the borrower's obligations

The borrower's obligations are reduced according to a certain scheme. The first thing the financial institution decides is how much to compensate the applicant. There is no established minimum size in this case, but there is a maximum. Often 20-30% of the total balance owed on the mortgage is reimbursed. It is stipulated that the amount of state support should not exceed one and a half million rubles.

The following categories of citizens will be able to repay 30% of the debt:

  1. The family has two minor children.
  2. Disability has been established.
  3. Parents are raising a disabled child.
  4. The applicant is a combat veteran.

Families with one child can receive only 20% of the remaining mortgage debt. Please note that an exception may be made to this rule if the interdepartmental commission decides that a large amount of debt must be paid.

It is important to determine not only how much money will be compensated from budget funds, but also how it is provided. There are two options for assistance:

  1. The entire agreed amount is written off from the debt balance, after which the amount of monthly payments is recalculated.
  2. The provided amount of money is divided into parts, each of which will be used to compensate for the monthly payment. In this case there are two significant limitations. Firstly, you can compensate no more than 50% of the monthly contribution. And secondly, the duration of such payment should not exceed 18 months.

Which option to choose is decided between the borrower and the lender, but the prerogative is given to the citizen, because the financial organization loses nothing in either case.

Replacing foreign currency mortgages with ruble ones

Many mortgage borrowers found themselves in the unpleasant situation of financial collapse precisely because at one time they took out a loan in foreign currency. Long-term stability in the foreign exchange market weakened the vigilance of citizens, and it began to seem that nothing would shake the current situation. The amount of mortgage loans taken due to the jump in the exchange rate increased several times. And given the interest rate applied to them, repayment of dues has become simply unrealistic.

The state support program allows citizens who have taken out a mortgage in foreign currency to convert the loan into the ruble equivalent.

The restructuring of such loans is carried out not at the established rate, but according to the laws adopted today. The interest rate applied to the ruble equivalent should not exceed that provided by the bank today for issuing mortgage programs. The rate can be increased only in one case, if the borrower has violated the established insurance rules provided for in the loan agreement.

Documents for restructuring

Financial organizations consider an application for debt restructuring with the help of state support only if the borrower provides the required package of documents for consideration of his candidacy. Information about his financial and family situation must be confirmed and fit the conditions of the program.

The list of documents consists of the following forms:

  1. Passport.
  2. Valid loan agreement.
  3. Documents for minor children - birth certificates.
  4. Certificate of disability or participation in hostilities and receipt of veteran status.
  5. A certificate from a medical institution if a minor child has a disability.
  6. Certificate of income for the last three months.
  7. A copy of the work book from the employer or its original if the person is not working at the moment.
  8. A certificate from an educational institution stating that the adult child is a full-time student.
  9. Guardians and adoptive parents must provide a decision from the guardianship authorities and a court order.
  10. Extract from the Unified State Register.
  11. Insurance policy.

The list may be supplemented at the discretion of the credit institution. Attached to the article is a sample application for mortgage restructuring.

Procedure

To receive government financial support to repay part of the remaining mortgage loan, the borrower will need to go through a step-by-step procedure. It consists of the following steps:

  1. A package of documents is submitted to the credit institution that issued the mortgage loan.
  2. The bank reviews the submitted application and issues its verdict.
  3. If the decision is positive, the applicant moves on to the next step, and if the decision is negative, he can contact the interdepartmental commission for a more detailed consideration of the circumstances and a more individual response.
  4. A new loan agreement is concluded or an additional agreement is prepared to an existing form.

First, the bank repays the difference from its own funds, but then the entire specified amount is compensated by AHML

Contacting the bank

Many borrowers complain that the bank refuses to restructure their mortgage loan, not wanting to consider documents for receiving government support. It should be taken into account that not all credit institutions are included in the AHML list, which complicates the possibility of cooperation. If the refusal is the initiative of the bank, then you can safely submit an application to the interdepartmental commission, since such actions are considered unlawful.

A borrower who, in his own opinion, meets the established requirements and conditions of state support is required to fill out an application form. This form is confirmed by the collected documents and submitted to the creditor for examination and a final verdict.

A positive decision results in a revision of previously established payment amounts. Before signing new agreements with the bank, you should decide on the method of compensation - one-time or in installments to pay off monthly payments.

Contacting AHML

The entire registration procedure is carried out in close cooperation between the bank and AHML. If the process follows a standard path, then the citizen will not have to apply to AHML on his own; this will be handled by the lender. The bank submits the already reviewed documents to the agency, which, based on them, transfers the agreed amount of compensation to the financial organization.

If the creditor rejected the application for debt restructuring or decided to compensate only a small part of it, which, in the opinion of the property owner himself, is unjustified, a commission review of the situation can be initiated. In some cases, the commission may decide to pay 100% of the debt, but for this purpose the reasons must be very compelling.

The beginning of 2008 was marked by the onset of an economic crisis in the country, which led to a sharp weakening of the national currency, the ruble, and, as a consequence, an increase in the exchange rates of major foreign currencies. All housing loan borrowers, especially those who took out a mortgage on real estate in dollars or euros, suffered from this.

Numerous public rallies that took place across the country forced the state to look for ways to stabilize the situation in the mortgage lending market, which ultimately led to the creation of the AHML program to assist mortgage borrowers, which is also valid in 2018-2019. The main conditions of the program, package of documents, form and amounts of support are described below.

By adopting Resolution 373 in 2015, the Russian government provided a separate list of borrowers with the opportunity to restructure. This regulatory act defines the conditions for implementing the assistance program for AHML borrowers who find themselves in a difficult financial situation. What was determined?
