Car loan with state support
Initially, the state program of preferential car lending was to be completed in 2016, but the government decided to extend it until the end of 2020 (and this is not the limit). Therefore, everyone, if their income and credit history meet the requirements of the Bank, can buy a car on credit on preferential terms.
What is state subsidization of car loans? This is the state's financial assistance allocated to support and develop the automotive industry in Russia. This program has been in place since 2009.
State support programs were different, but their essence was the same – the state compensated the customers part of the interest rate (at the moment, the reduction of the interest rate was canceled, but there was a discount from the cost of the car in the amount of 10%).
The terms of the loans with the state support
- the loan is issued in rubles for the purchase of cars of the Russian Assembly (VAZ, some models of Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai, Peugeot, Volkswagen, Kia, etc.);
- the cost of the car - up to 1.45 million rubles.;
- the loan period is not more than 3 years;
- year of production of the car - not older than 1 year (this program does not apply to used cars);
- initial bet - no more than 17%;
- the discount is fixed and is 10% (not for all borrowers). For the Far East - up to 25%.
initial payment is not required (this condition is at the discretion of the banks); - vehicle weight-not more than 3.5 tons;
- the car is pledged - until the full payment of the car loan the car is pledged to the Bank.
According to the programs of preferential car loans in 2018, unlike 2017, they left a 10% discount on the cost of the car, but canceled the reduction in the interest rate. Only the residents of the Far East were lucky, they not only kept the rate reduction, but also increased it. This decision of the Ministry of industrial trade is due to the low level of sales of new cars. Residents of the region prefer used cars of Japanese manufacturers. Since April 11, 2018 in the region there are discounts on interest rates of 10 – 25% for different categories of citizens.
From July 1, 2018, the temporary procedure for the import of vehicles without the ERA-GLONASS security system will stop. The authorities of the region have repeatedly drawn the attention of the Ministry of industry and trade to the inability to put cars on record after this date, but the relevant Department is in no hurry with the introduction of new rules.
These measures are designed to stimulate the sale of domestic cars in the far East.
A full list of models that fall under the state program of preferential car loans can be found on the official website of the program, but each Bank has its own list of cars.
The disadvantages of the program
As in the barrel of honey has a fly in the ointment, and in this program there are disadvantages:
- strict requirements for borrowers-preferential car loan will not be issued if you are a student or a pensioner;
- relatively long procedure of registration;
- the car remains in the Deposit with the Bank.
Preferential car loan programs are available in all major cities of Russia. Each Bank has its own terms of concessional lending, but the main points of the program remain unchanged.
A car loan without a down payment in the end will cost you more. Also, the total cost is affected by the presence or absence of CASCO policy.
The tasks facing the state program of subsidizing car loans
The main task is to support the demand for cars assembled in Russia. Potential customers refuse to purchase a car on credit mainly because of high interest rates. The program reduces the credit load.
Task 1. The stimulation of the automobile market
Thanks to the programs of preferential car loans, the share of cars purchased on credit in 2017 increased to 49%, while in 2014 the share of cars purchased on credit was 35%. In other words, about half of the cars in the country are purchased on credit.
Without state support, the demand for cars of the domestic Assembly will decrease, which will further exacerbate the economic downturn in the country.
In 2018, the following programs are available:
- "First car" - support for those who purchase a car for the first time;
- "Family car" - support for families with two or more children.
Task 2. Support for the domestic automotive industry
State subsidies for car loans apply only to cars collected in Russia. However, this program is available not only Vases, but dozens of foreign brands – Toyota, Volkswagen, Kia, etc.on the quality of cars collected in Russia can not judge, but judging by the reviews, it is quite acceptable.
Task 3. Compensation of interest to citizens on car loans
In 2018, a discount on the rate of car loans is not provided due to the reduction of Bank rates.
Families with children will be able to provide a 10% discount on the cost of the car if there is a down payment.
How to get a car loan on preferential terms
As in any other industry, a car loan with state support is a bit more difficult to obtain than a conventional one. Therefore, you will need an instruction, use it, and then the chances of success will increase many times.
Step 1. Choice of cars
If you decide to buy a car on credit with state support, then, first of all, you need to choose a car of domestic Assembly. Be aware of the price and year limit. Every Bank has been cooperating with certain dealers.
Step 2. Comparison of conditions
There are enough banks participating in the program. Having studied the conditions offered by banks, you will choose the most optimal option.
When choosing a Bank, you should consider:
- user feedback;
- rating of independent rating agencies;
- availability of offices in your city;
- the working hours of the branches;
- interest rates and additional conditions.
For a quick analysis of the conditions offered by banks, there are special services that do it quickly and efficiently.
Step 3. Prepare documents and submit an application
Before you apply to the Bank with an application for a preferential car loan, examine the requirements of banks to borrowers.
Standard condition:
- citizenship of the Russian Federation;
- registration at the place of credit;
- age from 21 to 60 years (in some banks up to 55 years);
- work activity - from 5 years of permanent experience and 6 months at the current place of work.
In some banks, the requirements are milder. For example, the Sovcombank approves and issues loans to people over 65 years old.
List of documents:
- the passport of the citizen of the Russian Federation;
- the second document to choose from-INN, SNILS, passport, driver's license;
- copy of work book;
- help 2-pit.
Some banks require the consent of the spouse to the transaction, data on property, information on additional income.
Borrowers have a choice – to apply at the Bank branch or use the online service.
The processing time of the application depends on the selected Bank.
Step 4. The conclusion of the credit agreement
Important! When signing a loan agreement, be sure to study it thoroughly – study all the sections, especially those in small print. Very often credit managers do not announce important points of the contract.
Be sure to check:
- ways of debt repayment - it`ll be good, if there will be a few;
- obligations of the parties – your obligations as a borrower, and the Bank's obligations as a lender;
- the interest rate - it happens that initially you are counting on one interest rate, and the contract specifies the other;
- additional fees - is there a Commission for opening and maintaining an account, how is the Commission for financial transactions calculated;
- terms of early repayment - how much interest will be taken for early repayment of the loan, how to apply for the closure of the loan.
According to the program of preferential car loans, the buyer enters into a contract of sale of the car, registers the car in the traffic police, then transfers the PTS to the Bank for storage. You pay the first installment, if it is provided, and the car is issued as a Deposit.
Step 5. Insurance
Insurance policy is mandatory, CASCO policy is also mandatory in many banks. Sometimes insurance is included in the loan amount.
If the Bank does not limit the choice of insurance company, you can arrange insurance where you see fit.
Step 6. We take the car and repay the loan
It remains only to pick up the car. Remember that you will become a full owner only after full repayment of the loan.
When you have paid off your loan in full, be sure to take a certificate from the Bank that your loan has been fully repaid and that you have removed the car's encumbrance.
Top banks with the most favorable terms
Choosing the right Bank is the key to success.
The most profitable loan offers in the program of subsidizing car loans offered by the state UniCredit Bank (age of the borrower 21-60 years, for women-55 years; work experience in the last place of work – 3 months.; maximum loan term-7 years).
VTB "state program of subsidizing car loans" (initial contribution of 20%, 25% discount - for residents of the Far East and 10% - for residents of other regions of Russia).
Reasons for refusal to issue a preferential car loan
The issue of preferential car loans is a right, not a duty of the Bank. Any Bank has the right to refuse such a loan, even without explanation. But usually the reason of refusal is sounded. Consider the most common reasons for failure.
The first reason-the car is more expensive
Everything is simple, the cost of your chosen car is above the set maximum.
The second reason – the weight of the car more than 3.5 tons
If your chosen car in full weighs more than 3.5 tons, the program of preferential lending will not suit you.
The third reason-since the release of the car has been more than 1 year
The state subsidy program is designed only for the purchase of new cars produced less than a year ago.
The fourth reason – the selected car of foreign Assembly
The program is aimed at supporting the Russian automotive industry, so you can buy a car with a preferential car loan only of domestic Assembly.
The fifth reason is the presence of a bad credit history
If the above reasons are easy to eliminate, then the fifth reason is not so easy to cope with. If you have an outstanding loan, close it immediately. How to be, if you fix a bad credit history does not work? Then let the preferential car loan for you will issue a spouse.
What to do if the Bank refused preferential lending
If the Bank has rejected the application, what to do? Do not rush to give up, there are ways to fix it.
Tip 1 - follow the terms of the creditor Bank.
If possible, follow all the lender's terms and conditions. For example, correct the flaws, if they have been identified, request additional help, close previous loans. Sometimes it happens that the borrower remains to the Bank a couple of tens of rubles, which are charged interest. The borrower does not know about it, because at the time did not take a certificate of no debt.
Tip 2 - provide additional guarantees
If your solvency leaves much to be desired, offer a co-borrower or guarantor. You can offer an additional Deposit. If you refused CASCO, agree, it will immediately reduce the risks of the Bank.
Tip 3 - apply to another Bank
If you are denied in one Bank, it does not mean that you will be denied in another.
Conclusion
The program of preferential car loans allows you to buy a car for those who now do not have enough money for it and do not like standard conditions. At the same time, this program stimulates the Russian automotive industry.
