Russian Deputy Prime Minister Khusnullin assessed the risks of changing the conditions of the family mortgage

It would be risky to change the terms of the Family Mortgage program before October 1, 2026, since the consequences of such a decision cannot yet be fully assessed. This was announced on August 9 by Russian Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

"The risks are big. We cannot fully calculate the consequences of the recalculation. In addition, the presidential administration conducted an opinion poll, and people say that 6% of them are satisfied, but they are not ready for more," he said in an interview with TASS.

Khusnullin admitted that additional benefits may appear in the future, in particular for large families. At the same time, he stressed, when making decisions, it is necessary to take into account the market situation and the high burden on state finances associated with the key rate of the Bank of Russia.

The Deputy Prime Minister added that the authorities will monitor the market situation until October 1, after which they will be able to return to discussing possible changes.
