Key to the Future: A family from Severodvinsk purchased an apartment using a preferential Far Eastern and Arctic mortgage

The “Far Eastern and Arctic Mortgage” program, implemented jointly by the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East and the Far East and Arctic Development Corporation (FEDC), has surpassed 1 trillion rubles in the volume of issued preferential loans. Among the more than 204,000 families who took advantage of the favorable 2% annual interest rate to purchase an apartment or build their own home through the “Hectare” project is Elena Loginova's family from Severodvinsk.

Elena's family lived in the small town of Onega. But due to a change in circumstances, she moved to Severodvinsk with her husband, Sergey, and their 12-year-old daughter, Kamilla. Elena found a job as an accountant at a school. Sergey had been working as a shift driver at a mining company for many years. For the first three years, the family lived in a rented apartment. In December 2025, Elena learned about the Far Eastern Mortgage program, which offered a reduced interest rate—education workers were among the priority recipients. She decided to participate in the program. "It was a very profitable investment for our family," shares Elena Loginova. "Part of the maternity capital and our own savings were enough for the down payment and the purchase of a two-bedroom apartment. The preferential mortgage terms and such a low interest rate now make it possible to repay the loan comfortably—even a small family income will be enough to cover the repayment."
