About fund
State Fund for Support of Youth Housing Construction is a unique instrument of state housing policy, created by the government in 1992.
Today State Fund for Support of Youth Housing Construction is financial institution implementing various mechanisms of state support of citizens in their aspiration to get their own housing.
Today we provide crediting of young families, teachers, scientists, participants of anti-terrorist operation, and IDPs. We also provide state support under the program of affordable housing (30*70 and 50*50 for participants of anti-terrorist operation (ATO participants) and IDPs), as well as compensation of interest rate under loans of commercial banks under the scheme of making mortgage loans less expensive, where 13% will be compensated.
The popular mechanism among the youth for today is the program of privileged long-term construction crediting for housing purchase for young families.
The loan is given and serviced by the Fund without participation of commercial banks.
We have financing from the state and local budgets and we also give credits from our share capital funds. Conditions of granting a loan depend on the source of lending.
Credits, we provide at the expense of the state budget have such conditions:
It’s given to a young family aged up to 35 years, for the period of 30 years. Interest rate is 3 % per year. At any stage of loan treaty operation, when a child is born privileges are established. Families with children are exempt from percent payment for the use of loan, 25% are payed to the families where 2 children are brought, 50% are repaid if three and more children are brought. Funds received from the loan are directed to further crediting.
In 2009 the Government approved the Statute of the Fund envisaging formation of the Fund’s share capital. A new form of crediting was introduced at the expense of the Fund’s share capital funds.
The source of the share capital replenishment are funds from the return of privileged long-term youth loans for housing construction or purchase.
It’s given to a young family aged up to 35 years, the term of the loan is 20 years, interest rate is calculated taking into account the NBU counting rate.
Compared to the loans of commercial banks the conditions of crediting by the Fund at the expense of the funds of share capital are more moderate.
In 2019 we started new program of privileged long-term construction crediting for housing purchase for ATO participants and IDPs. The term of the loan is 20 years, interest rate is 3 % per year.
Starting from 2010 we started new program of giving state support to citizens for building (purchase) of affordable housing.
Today the program foresees making housing cost cheaper by 30 % of the standard housing cost at the expense of state grant and by 50% cheaper for ATO participants and IDPs.
This program is aimed at citizens requiring improvement of housing conditions under law and who are capable of paying 70 % or 50% of standard housing cost.
This program is not aimed at low-income, socially unprotected citizens or people with limited financial possibilities. Its task is to help citizens, first of all, economically active part of society, to independently solve the housing issue by the implementation of financial and investment mechanism of state support for building (purchase) of affordable housing.
In 2012 the Fund was involved in the implementation of Social Initiatives of the President according to the resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated April 25, 2012 #343 on making mortgage loans cost cheaper.
The program foresees that partial funding of borrower’s obligations under loan for construction or purchase of housing (13% shall be repaid at the expense of the state budgetary funds; borrower gets the loan under 3% per year).
Thus, the system of state housing support of different categories of citizens was created in Ukraine with the participation of the State Fund for Support of Youth Housing Construction. A citizen who acknowledged by legislation as the one who needs to improve housing conditions may use any mechanism in view of the property status.
