On the contrary, it represents an advantage for the new buyer, as the apartment is in order paperwork-wise and has already been verified by the legal department of the bank that approved the loan to the owner \u2013 the seller.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThis makes the buyer more secure as they are acquiring a property that is valid for mortgage registration.\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.heroldo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/real-estate-g3f53e3e7b_1920.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<h3>\n<strong>Is it <\/strong><strong>possible and safe<\/strong><strong> to buy an apartment with a mortgage through a housing loan?<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/h3>\n<p>\nIf you wish to buy the selected apartment that is under mortgage through a housing loan, that is possible. How does the purchasing process proceed in this case?\n<\/p>\n<p>\nFirst, it is necessary to request a Certificate of Remaining Debt from the bank where the apartment is mortgaged, as well as a letter of intent from that bank stating that it will issue a deletion permit after the remaining debt on the loan is paid off. Once the necessary documentation is obtained, you can apply for a loan at the bank.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nWhen you receive confirmation of the housing loan approval from the bank, a <strong>second rank mortgage<\/strong> is established, and after obtaining the decision on the registration of the mortgage from the RGZ (cadastre), the bank proceeds to disburse the funds.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nUpon the realization of the housing loan, it is mandatory to delete the first rank mortgage.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nOne of the conditions is that the seller must liquidate their mortgage by providing a deletion permit, which is issued by the bank so that the mortgage can be deleted from the RGZ register.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAfter the sale contract of the property is notarized, the buyer, following the bank&#8217;s instructions, pays a portion of the agreed price, up to the amount of the debt, into the seller&#8217;s designated account at the bank. After this payment, the seller is obliged to take all necessary actions at the bank to liquidate the loan secured by the mortgage, to obtain a permit for the deletion of the mortgage, and to initiate the procedure for deleting the mortgage with the competent real estate cadastre authority.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.www.heroldo.com\">Do you need help with buying or selling a property with a mortgage or through a housing loan?
