Typically expatriate mortgages for Romanian property are available up to 75-85 % of the value of the property (but not more than the balance of the (pre)sales agreement. Therefore "Loan to Value" (LTV) is calculated on the final value of the property (after completion if this is the case).

Income from self employment (from abroad) can be taken in consideration but is subject to status

Easy Credit Broker fees
As Easy Credit we inform you that we are charging a small aditional fee for our services in case you are taking out a mortgage through our
company. This agreement is valid for a period of 2 months after signing and will allow us to finalize the mortgage application. We do need to mention that we cannot be held responsible for the seller to delay to property transaction or other 3rd parties causing delays beyond our control. We furthermore offer full support on not only your mortgage application, but also give legal and tax guidance regarding any issues involved when buying property in Romania.
Documentation
We have a particular good partnership with one of our banking partners were documentation is simplified and reduced. In case you are legally employed outside/inside Romania, we can sustain your mortgage approval based on only copies of certain documentation, which can be sent to us in PDF or JPG format for a quick handeling of your file! Certain banks might request the documents to be translated and legalised in Romania.
Land issues
We would like to advice our (EU) clients not to set up a Romanian company to own any land involved in a property transaction. First of all the aditional costs of setting up a company (400-600 EURO) and the maintenance costs (on average 50 EURO/month)are not worth the money in case you could own your land on your personal name! We as Easy Credit can offer the solution for our (EU) clients to own the land on their personal name without the hassle of starting up a company !
First Class Service.

existing property please contact us with
your borrowing requirements, we can normally get an
agreement in principal the same day.

assess your individual case and immediately place you with the most suitable
lender offering the best possible terms.
When buying any property it is essential that finance is secured
quickly to avoid jeopardising the transaction itself. As
an expatriate it is even more important to deal with a specialist
who has in depth experience of the expatriate mortgage market.
Our financial pre-approvals are valid for a period of 45-60 days! The final approval of our banking partners will depend on the property documentation that needs to be provided to close the mortgage.
