A loan to large families from Sberbank for the construction of a house. How to get a loan for a large family to buy a home
The state annually considers additional opportunities for this category of beneficiaries and decides to make changes at the legislative level. A mortgage to build a house for a large family is a reality.
Building a house is a long process that requires a lot of time and money. If your savings are not enough, you can turn to the bank for help. Many residents of Russia can count on receiving various compensations from the state when building a house.
Basic Concepts
Housing subsidy is money allocated by the state to help families realize their dreams. It is issued free of charge.
A subsidy for housing construction is not cash, but a certificate giving the right to receive money. This document is sent to the bank, and a savings account is opened there, to which funds are transferred, and, if necessary, an additional loan.
Such government support has several nuances:
- The subsidy for building a house is targeted. It is not possible to spend the amount received on other needs;
- The subsidy has a limited duration. The average is six months. If you do not use it within the stipulated period, it will disappear.
The amount of the subsidy issued depends on the composition of the family and the calculation of the square footage in a particular region of residence. On average, a family with a small child will receive 800,000 rubles. The amount also depends on other factors:
- price per square meter;
- housing area according to state standards. For two people you will need 42 squares, and in other cases there should be at least 18 squares for each person;
- Only a percentage of the amount is given depending on the category of citizens. For urban residents the percentage will be 40%, and for rural residents 70%.
This program is issued not only for the construction of a house, but also for other purchases. For example, for the purchase of finished housing or for participation in shared construction.
Preferential lending
Not all banks issue preferential loans for young families. There are quite a lot of offers of this kind in Moscow. Here, the average interest rate on preferential lending is 13–15% per annum. So where can you get a profitable loan?

How to become a participant in preferential lending
Basic requirements for potential borrowers:
- the person is a citizen of the Russian Federation;
- has a stable income;
- permanently registered in the region where the loan program is provided;
- age 21–65 years;
- The potential borrower must have a total experience of 1 year;
- At the last place of work, you need at least six months of experience.
To receive a loan program, you must provide the following package of documents:
- application form of the established form;
- registration form for receiving a subsidy;
- consent to the processing of personal data;
- identification document;
- state-issued insurance certificate;
- military ID for males;
- birth, marriage or divorce certificate;
- other documents confirming receipt of a stable salary or income.
Lending to large families is a profitable program not only for the potential borrower, but also for the bank itself. By these actions, he earns a reputation and receives a subsidy from the state, which has a positive effect on the further receipt of a loan by the bank itself.
Making large purchases, such as housing, cars, furniture or household appliances, on credit is becoming increasingly popular. And sometimes money is urgently needed to pay for education, treatment, recreation, etc.
In these cases, it is also possible to use borrowed funds. However, for large families, repaying the loan received with interest is quite difficult.
To support such families, the state, with the assistance of banks, is implementing programs that make it possible to obtain loans for various purposes on preferential terms.
Let's consider where and how you can get a preferential loan for large families.
What families can be considered large?
In order to benefit from government support measures, a family must meet certain criteria. As a rule, they relate to the number of children and the age of the spouses.
Families with many children are those in which, at the time of applying for help in obtaining a loan, there are three or more children whose age is under 18 years.
Adult children are taken into account in the following cases:
- if they are currently serving in the army on urgent conscription;
- study full-time at an educational institution of secondary or higher professional level on a budgetary basis.
In the latter case, families have the right to receive assistance until the children reach 23 years of age.
If a student is expelled or transferred to a correspondence department, the opportunity to use benefits is lost.
Most loan programs for families are aimed at improving their living conditions.
The difference between mortgage loans is their duration, so banks set limits for the age of borrowers, usually 35 years. In other words, such loans are intended primarily for young families.
Preferential bank loan products for families with many children in 2019
Most of the preferential loans offered by banks to large families in 2019 are mortgage loans. This is quite logical, given the cost of housing and the relatively small earnings of young families with children.
But there are other loans, targeted or consumer, when applying for which you can count on certain benefits.
They can be expressed as follows:
- reduced interest rate, sometimes twice the base rate;
- minimal down payment or no down payment;
- credit holidays at the birth of a child;
- the ability to repay interest on a loan using maternity capital (for example, to pay for education or a mortgage);
- debt restructuring if necessary.
At the same time, loans are issued to large families on a general basis.
The bank carefully checks not only the borrower’s compliance with the criteria for participation in preferential lending programs, but also his ability to repay the loan on time. If there is any doubt about this, the loan will most likely not be given.
Banks proceed from the fact that monthly loan repayments should not exceed 30-50% of the total family income. This includes not only parents’ salaries, but also various benefits.
Therefore, even if the level of official earnings is relatively low, large families can easily count on loan approval.
In order to increase the chances of a positive response, the parent with many children whose official income is higher should apply. If this seems not enough, then you can involve your spouse or parents as a co-borrower. This allows you to estimate the income level of the entire family as a whole. Or the older generation of the family may be involved as guarantors.
Loans from Sberbank for young and large families
In 2019, Sberbank is not implementing any targeted government programs to support large families. Moreover, as of this year, almost all mortgage programs with government co-financing have been discontinued.
But the fact of having many children can be taken into account when issuing a loan that provides benefits for other reasons.
Thus, Sberbank offers a reduced interest rate for consumer loans to those borrowers who receive wages on the card of this bank.
A loan “for your own” implies not only a lower interest rate, but also substantial amounts that can be issued. You can reduce the interest on the loan by another 1-2% if you insure your life for the entire period of repayment of the debt.
You can confirm your reliability as a borrower by providing proof of ownership of housing or a new car. There is no mortgage on this property, but if the debt is not paid, it may be foreclosed on.
How to get a soft loan
Banks are primarily interested in repaying the loan issued and paying interest for its use.
Therefore, they set a number of requirements for borrowers that are common to all credit institutions:
- Russian citizenship;
- working age is usually from 21 to 60 (55 for women) years;
- permanent employment for more than a year, with at least 3 months in the current place;
- availability of official earnings sufficient to pay monthly contributions.
To confirm these facts, you will need to attach a copy of a valid Russian passport to your loan application, as well as a certificate from work, preferably if it is 2 personal income taxes. The original passport is presented to the bank employee accepting the application.
The same set of requirements and supporting documents applies to the second spouse if he acts as a co-borrower.
The fact of having many children in order to receive a loan on preferential terms is confirmed by:
- birth certificates of children (copies thereof);
- children’s passports (copies thereof);
- a certificate of family composition obtained from the passport office of the housing office.
If the head of a large family works as an individual entrepreneur, he will need to provide a certificate of registration as an individual entrepreneur and a declaration of 3 personal income tax.
Large families, like other borrowers, may be denied a loan if the bank considers their income insufficient to repay the debt on time.
However, this does not mean that a preferential loan for large families is impossible in principle. After some time, you can re-submit your application, reducing the requested amount or indicating additional sources of income.
In this case, the chance of a positive answer is quite high.

Mortgage programs solve the problems of many families, allowing them to build a house according to their own design. In recent years, the state has offered assistance to large families in building a house, reimbursing the costs incurred with subsidies.
How do these instruments work and what do borrowers get in practice when they apply to a bank for a loan to build a house for large families? We will discuss these questions in our article.
What is a housing subsidy for families with many children?
The Russian government provides subsidies to large families for the purchase or construction of a house. Depending on the region, payment amounts may vary.
Funds are allocated to families in need of improved housing conditions. To receive money, you need to submit a number of documents: an application, copies of passports, birth certificates of children and total income.
Families with three or more natural or adopted children can receive government assistance. But this rule does not apply throughout the Russian Federation.In some areas, parents with five or more children are considered to have many children.
Specific conditions for issuing subsidies to large families for the construction of a house should be obtained from local authorities.
Funds can be received in two ways:
- the subsidy for families with many children is transferred to the applicant’s account before the start of construction, for the purchase of building materials and payment for contractors’ services;
- The subsidy is issued after the construction of the house is completed. In this case, the costs incurred are compensated.
Related articles:
The size of the subsidy is determined at the local level and depends on living space standards, the number of family members and other factors. The main requirements for receiving money are:
- Russian citizenship and permanent residence in the country;
- lack of other external sources of construction financing.
Upon positive consideration of the application, a target account is opened for the recipient, to which the amount is subsequently transferred. It cannot be received in cash - all payments are made only through a special account. The condition of the program is to use the money within six months.
Loans and subsidies. How it works?
First of all, it must be said that loans are issued by banks, and subsidies are issued by the state.
Sberbank offers a preferential mortgage lending program for families with three or more children, accepting government subsidies as debt payment.
This the project was implemented today only in Sberbank, therefore, if you want to pay off the loan with targeted money, you need to send an application to the bank. Documents required:
- trust account agreement;
- mortgage loan agreement;
- construction contract.
Construction mortgage for a large family
The bank provides loans to large families that do not have subsidies for construction on preferential terms: with a reduced rate and a relatively small down payment. To do this, a young family must have three or more children under the age of 18, Russian citizenship and a stable income.
The program for large families has been implemented by the bank for several years; to participate in it you need to submit a number of documents:
- copies of the spouses’ passports and a copy of the marriage certificate;
- certificates of employment, copies of work records, other proof of income;
- children's birth certificates;
- documents for existing property (housing, car, etc.).
A mandatory condition is life and health insurance. The bank accepts a house under construction as collateral.
What to pay attention to:
- The plot for construction must be registered as a property or lease. Typically, the bank accepts the right to use the land as collateral;
- During the construction phase of a house, the interest rate on the loan may be 1-2 points higher. After commissioning, the bank will reduce the rate;
- The property will be pledged throughout the entire loan period, until the mortgage is fully paid off;
- Depending on the region, Sberbank lending parameters may vary slightly. Check with your local bank branches for exact conditions.
In 2016, the bank offers a loan of up to 15 million rubles. The maximum possible mortgage term will be 30 years. The size of the down payment can be from 10% to 15%, depending on the conditions of the bank in a particular region. It is possible to defer loan payments for up to 3 years at the birth of another child.
Conclusion and conclusions
The loan offered by Sberbank is more profitable than a standard mortgage. But, unfortunately, not all large families can take advantage of the program.
An indispensable condition for the lender is the official income of the borrower and the presence of a permanent job. In large families, often only one spouse works, and the total family income is not enough to ensure mortgage payments.
Therefore, it is not always possible to take out a loan for a large family from a rural area.
The state provides support to certain categories of citizens by providing preferential loans for housing construction, partially financing interest rates on loans from public and private banks.

Moscow families are in more favorable conditions compared to other regions, since they can count on additional preferences from regional authorities. In this article, we will look at the conditions under which mortgages are offered to large families in Moscow in 2019, and highlight the main points.
Since 2005, large families have the opportunity to get into. The federal program “Affordable Housing for Russian Citizens” established the following requirements for potential participants and conditions for obtaining a loan:
- housing subsidy cannot exceed 35% of the total cost of living space;
- the subsidy must be credited to the account of the banking institution where the loan will be taken out on a monthly basis;
- in the event of the birth of another child after obtaining a mortgage, the family receives a discount of 18% of the total cost of the loan;
- the state pays for the purchase of 30 sq. meters of housing, and in the future this area will not be eligible for lending.
The family has the right to apply to pay off the existing debt. As already noted, assistance is allocated in a strict order of priority, so it is important to contact the authorized body with the appropriate application as soon as possible.
What interest rates are provided for large families?
Mortgage lending for families with more than three children provides for a loan at low interest rates and partial reimbursement of the loan by the state.
Receiving a preferential loan has virtually no differences from obtaining a regular housing loan, but this option is more profitable for a large family. For example, in AHML a mortgage can be issued at 6.15% per annum, provided that the apartment is located in a new building, and if the dwelling belongs to the secondary category, the rate will be 11%.
Other banking institutions also offer favorable rates to such customers. Typically, the reduction occurs by 1-2% or more than the percentages established for all other borrowers.
