Mortgage parameters for foreigners

Mortgages are available both for Czech citizens and for foreign buyers. In order to qualify for the best mortgage conditions - it is necessary to have a residency in the Czech Republic or to have income from the Czech Republic.

It is always necessary to declare sufficient net income to qualify for a mortgage. It is possible to accept income from an employment or a self-employment. Income from an employment is to be declared by income confirmation form (bank form to be confirmed by an employer) and bank statements (to declare regular incoming salary). Income from a self-employment is to be declared by a copy of personal tax return for previous two years.

Possible mortgage parameters differentiate mainly according to the following parameters: citizenship, country of residence, country of source of income and source of declarable income.

Interest rates can be fixed for a given period of time (usually for 1, 3, 5, 7, 8 or 10 years) or it is possible to choose a variable interest rate. The most favorite are mortgages with 5 years fixation. Interest rates are changing every month and there are big differences among different banks and products.

At the end of each fixation period – it is possible to pay off the whole mortgage or part of the mortgage without any fee or penalty. In case of early extra payment (sooner than at the end of each fixation period) the bank can charge a fee. Therefore if you intend to pay off the mortgage sooner, it is better to choose shorter fixation period – with respect to the expected time of extra payment. If you intend to pay off the mortgage sooner because you decide to sell the property (and if you hold the mortgage at least 2 years) - the maximum bank fee is only 1% and max. 50.000 CZK = very low. There are also several other reasons when the bank does not charge any fee for extra payment. We are always ready to help you find the best way.

Maximum maturity is usually till the age of 70 years (in some banks upto 65 years), usually upto 20 years or upto 30 years.

At least one visit of Prague is usually necessary in order to sign mortgage documentation and to open a bank account. Everything takes not more than 1- 2 hours.
