Etalon Begins Sales With 6.5% Subsidised Mortgages

13 May 2020

ETALON GROUP PLC (“Etalon Group” or the “Company”), one of Russia’s largest and longest-established development and construction companies, announces that it has completed its first transactions using state-subsidised mortgages in both of its core regions.

The subsidised mortgage programme is available from 17 April 2020 through 1 November 2020, while the preferential rate of not more than 6.5% is effective for the entire term of the loan. The maximum mortgage loan for housing in the Moscow region and St Petersburg cannot exceed RUB 8 million, and the minimum down payment is 20%.

Etalon Group expects this initiative to provide an additional incentive for mortgage transactions, which, together with online sales that Etalon Group was one of the first in the market to launch, will help to maintain steady demand for the Company's real estate in the new operating conditions.
