"In Penza many companies build high-quality housing. The Ministry of Construction [and Road Economy] and regulatory bodies pay attention to this. Nowadays there is healthy competition among construction companies. Modern neighbourhoods are being constructed. We have learned to create comfortable environment outside – in the streets, in the yards," the head of the region said.

He also talked to the Frantsevs family, where two children are brought up. The couple used the funds of the parent capital and took out a mortgage that allowed them to buy a two-bedroom apartment.

In a conversation with them the governor reminded of the programs available in the region.

"We have founded the Agency of Mortgage Lending of the Penza Region. 60 million roubles were allocated from the budget to subsidize interest rates on mortgages. In the near future, an agreement with the Federal Agency of Mortgage Lending will be signed, and the following year about 100 million roubles will be built into the budget. We will be able to attract other 900 million roubles from the Federal Mortgage Company to subsidize interest rates on mortgages for some categories of citizens. This will give an opportunity to take out loans through our agency at the lending rate of 5-6% per annum," the press service of the regional government quotes Ivan Belozertsev.
