The current government program "eOselya" will provide for a down payment reduction of up to 10% for young Ukrainians under the age of 25 - the program should be launched in the fall. This is a really good mortgage program. It provides for 3% per annum for the military, doctors, teachers, law enforcement officers and 7% per annum for other categories
