How a mortgage on a new-build apartment works: down payment, rate, term and documents. How a mortgage differs from instalments and when it’s better.
How a new-build mortgage works
A mortgage is a bank loan to buy housing, with the apartment as collateral. You pay a down payment, the bank transfers the rest to the developer, and you repay the bank monthly — usually over several years up to 15–20.
The main benefit is a long term and a small monthly payment. The cost is bank interest.
Down payment, rate and term
Three parameters define your mortgage: down payment, bank rate and term. A longer term means a smaller monthly payment but higher total overpayment.
Compare several banks and calculate the total overpayment, not just the monthly payment.
Mortgage or instalments
Developer instalments are often interest-free but shorter; a mortgage gives a long term with bank interest.
Big down payment → instalments; need a long term → compare mortgages.
Documents and process
Usually a passport, proof of income and apartment details are required. Process: choose the apartment → bank approval → contracts → down payment.
Verify the developer: look for the “Verified” badge and real progress photos.

Instalments are often interest-free but short; a mortgage gives a long term with bank interest. Compare the total overpayment of both.
