Most favourable is 3-year fixation
Most frequently a 3-year fixation of interest rate is used with housing loans, showing certain shift compared to the past when 1-year fixations prevailed. „Now, the clients obtain loans for much more advantageous conditions, and therefore it is obvious that they want to keep them as long as possible.“, explains Michaela Trojčáková. Whereas, from historical perspective offered interest rates are rather low today, clients are recommended to fix them for a longer period, i. e. for 5 or 10 years.
Sporiteľňa saw a growth in housing loans
While the Slovak housing loan market saw a slight decrease in 2009, Slovenská sporiteľňa succeeded to strengthen its position, and as the market leader increased the volume of provided loans by more than 7%. „Major y-o-y increase was recorded in November, when both the number and the volume of housing loans saw a double-fold increase.“, explains Michaela Trojčáková, adding: „By the end of the last year, our share in the new housing loans was almost 31%, nearly one third of the market. Also this fact confirms that we are here for our clients when they need it, in good as well as in worse times.”
