Write off a mortgage loan

A mortgage loan is a common way to purchase a dream home. However, life does not always go according to plan, and situations arise when debt repayment becomes impossible.

Mortgage loan: what is it?

A mortgage loan is a targeted loan issued by a bank secured by real estate. Thanks to this tool, a person gets the opportunity to purchase housing, distributing its cost over a long period (usually 10-30 years).

Why and what problems arise with mortgage loans?

There are many reasons why paying off a mortgage loan can become problematic:

• Loss of working capacity: loss of job, serious illness, disability – all these can lead to a significant decrease in income, making it difficult or impossible to repay the loan.
• Change in financial situation: divorce, birth of children, other unforeseen events can have a significant impact on the family budget, making it difficult to meet loan obligations.
• Economic crises: the growth of the exchange rate, inflation, other economic troubles can lead to a significant increase in the price of loan payments.
• Dishonest actions of banks: there are cases when banks deliberately underestimate the value of collateral, offer unfavorable credit terms, or charge illegal fines and penalties.

Is it true that you can write off a mortgage loan, how?

Yes, in some cases it is possible to write off the mortgage loan. Here are two main ways:

Bankruptcy

The bankruptcy procedure involves the restructuring or complete write-off of the debts of an individual.

In order to write off a mortgage loan due to bankruptcy, it is necessary to meet certain criteria established by the legislation of Ukraine. Such criteria include:

• Being insolvent: The amount of debts far exceeds your assets and ability to repay them.
• Inability to fulfill obligations to creditors: you cannot pay the monthly loan payments for a certain period of time.
• No malicious acts on your part: You have not tried to artificially create debts or hide your assets.

The bankruptcy procedure is complex and requires legal support. Our company’s lawyers have extensive experience in bankruptcy cases and will help you at all stages of this procedure.

Write-off of mortgage loans for destroyed housing:

In March 2022, Ukraine adopted a law that provides for the possibility of writing off mortgage loans for citizens whose homes were destroyed as a result of military operations.

In order to receive a write-off, it is necessary to submit to the relevant authorities a package of documents confirming:

• Your ownership of the destroyed home.
• The fact of the destruction of housing as a result of military operations.
• Availability of a mortgage loan for this home.

This procedure also requires legal support. The lawyers of our company will help you collect the necessary documents and submit them to the relevant authorities.

It is important to note that each case is individual, and there is no universal way to write off a mortgage loan.
