More often, loans were taken out to purchase housing on the secondary market (131 loans) and from developers (35).

In total, since the beginning of the program, 6,900 families have already received loans in the amount of UAH 10.4 billion.

Demand is mainly concentrated on the secondary market, because the population is more willing to buy ready-made housing in safer regions. Most loans are provided for the purchase of housing on the secondary market. Investments in new buildings are hampered by both long construction times and the risks of unfinished construction..
