Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>Self-construction becomes part of the Housing Credit package, framed in Notice n.o 09\/2023 of August 3 of the National Bank of Angola (BNA), which establishes the special bank loan regimes for the purchase or construction of homes by individuals and companies.<\/b><\/p>\n

According to that diploma, which revokes\/replaces Notice No. 09\/2022, of April 6, the measure aims to adapt the criteria for granting loans, interest rates and other conditions for access to credit for housing and construction to income average of bank customers.<\/p>\n

To this end, this Notice considers self-construction, which was not part of the previous diploma, as a case in which the private client, owner or promissory buyer of land, hires a construction company to build his own permanent home.<\/p>\n

Alongside self-construction, the Central Bank document maintains Housing Credit, Construction and brings yet another new element, Infrastructure Land.<\/p>\n

The new law considers Housing Credit to be a loan to be granted to a private client for the acquisition of a permanent home, already built (new or used) and under construction or to be built in the immediate future, through self-construction or part of a housing project under construction.<\/p>\n

Construction Credit, on the other hand, is defined as a loan to be granted to the promoter of a housing project, which may be the owner or promissory-buyer of the land and simultaneously the builder of the project, or even the owner\/promissory-buyer of the land and the seller. property, which signs a construction contract with an independent builder for the construction of the project.<\/p>\n

As for Infrastructure Land, the Notice allows for the granting of credit for the purchase of land located in an area where basic infrastructure is installed, such as sanitation, power lines, water supply, street paving and public lighting.<\/p>\n

According to the BNA, the provisions of this Notice are mandatory for banking financial institutions of systemic importance in the national market, while for other commercial banks it is optional.<\/p>\n

However, the Central Bank clarifies that the obligation applies to the granting of credit that meets the eligibility criteria, established in the current diploma, to customers with a credit risk consistent with the risk appetite of each Banking Financial Institution.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the BNA adds that commercial banks may, in addition, offer other credit products for housing and the construction of housing projects to serve their customers who, not meeting the requirements of this Notice, fall within their risk appetite and target market.<\/p>\n

Construction projects financed under the aforementioned Notice must be dimensioned in such a way as to allow construction to be completed within a period of no more than three years.<\/p>\n

The new diploma aims to promote the construction of more houses in the country and create the conditions for bank customers to take out mortgage loans, compatible with the average level of their income.<\/p>\n

credit values<\/p>\n

According to the BNA document, the maximum financeable amount per property is determined by the financial capacity of the borrowers and guarantors, as applicable, and cannot exceed one hundred million kwanzas, which must be repaid within a maximum period of 30 years.<\/p>\n

The maximum nominal interest rate applicable to Mortgage Loans is 7% per year, until May 31, 2032.<\/p>\n

From June 1, 2032, the reference interest rate of the interbank market for a period of 30 days may be increased by a margin that must not exceed 1%.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the maximum nominal interest rate applicable to Construction Credit is 10% per year, until May 31, 2027. From June 1, 2027, the interbank market reference rate for the 30-day term , may be increased by a margin not to exceed 1%.<\/p>\n

Commercial banks must evaluate the best option for the customer, between progressive installments and constant installments, taking into account the characteristics of each one, including the potential increase in their income, during the term of the credit.<\/p>\n

Regardless of the value of the property, the credit granted under this Notice must be the only one guaranteed, and the contracting of other bank credits for its financing is not allowed, under any circumstances, even under terms and conditions different from those set forth in this document, and \/or being hired at other commercial banks.<\/p>\n

Commercial banks may stipulate, as additional conditions for granting credit, the intervention of guarantors in operations, when the customer’s credit risk level so justifies it.<\/p>\n

It goes on to state that the special housing credit regime, established in this Notice, covers credits granted after the entry into force of this diploma, as well as for the acquisition of permanent own housing, through the purchase of land with infrastructure and\/or self-construction.<\/p>\n

Among several criteria, the credit also includes the purchase of properties built after 2012, under construction or to be built and that are acquired from the promoter of a housing project, as well as the financing of properties that have been assigned by the State to a citizen in the terms of the regime for access to housing built with public funds.<\/p>\n

Requirements to have access to credit<\/p>\n

Systemically important commercial banks and others that intend to offer Mortgage Loans to their customers, under the terms of this Notice, must visibly disclose, on their institutional website, the availability of credit modalities, as well as the requirements for accessing the same. .<\/p>\n

On the other hand, developers of housing projects must meet requirements such as being a company incorporated under the Law of Commercial Companies, Law of Sole Proprietorships, or the Law of Cooperatives, as well as having organized accounting and accounts certified by an accountant or expert accountant Registered with the Order of Accountants and Expert Accountants of Angola.<\/p>\n

Being registered with the National Housing Institute as a real estate developer, when applicable, as well as having a valid contractor’s license and when the developer is also the builder, are also part of the requirements.<\/p>\n

The real estate agent must also have regular tax and Social Security status and have proven experience in carrying out construction projects of a similar nature to the project for which it is requesting funding.<\/p>\n

The requirements also include not having legal proceedings in progress, nor being condemned for breach of contract.<\/p>\n

However, financing for the acquisition of land that does not have infrastructure, as well as housing projects to be built on such land, is excluded from the scope of this Notice.<\/p>\n

This BNA diploma appears one year and two months after the entry into force of Notice 09\/2022 of April, from the same Central Bank, which also established the special regimes for housing loans and construction loans.<\/p>\n

At that time, the BNA had announced the availability of 58 billion kwanzas from the mandatory reserves of commercial banks to finance housing loans.<\/p>\n

Until December 2022, the Central Bank had registered only 63 of the 168 processes approved by the bank, which represented 37.35 percent.<\/p>\n
