Question 2

Is it possible to take out a mortgage loan to buy a property abroad?

Remy · Accepted Answer

Yes, but on the condition that the bank can take out a mortgage on real estate located in Belgium or Luxembourg.

Question 3

What are “conditions precedent”?

Accepted Answer

These are clauses indicated in the sales agreement which condition the birth of the legal effects of the loan / mortgage credit contract on the fulfillment of one or more conditions stipulated concretely in the notarial deed. The condition being in this case obtaining the agreement of the bank. It is therefore above all a protection for the future buyer in the event that his credit request is refused by the banking organization.

Thus, when you sign your sales agreement, it will be subject to the suspensive condition that you obtain your loan/mortgage credit within the time limit set when signing the sales agreement before the notary or with the real estate agency.

Concretely, this means that if you do not obtain your loan / mortgage credit within the agreed deadline, it is void (cancelled) unless you obtain an extension of the deadline to obtain your loan / mortgage credit.

In this case, things are returned to their original state and each party to the sales agreement is released from their obligations. The seller could thus agree to sell his property to another candidate buyer who would sign a new notarized sales agreement.

At Crédit Populaire Européen, we are committed to giving you a quick response so that you can notify the seller as quickly as possible.

Question 4

What is mortgage discharge?

Remy · Accepted Answer

First, let us clarify that the mortgage is the guarantee which allows a bank to cover itself in the event that the borrower is no longer able to repay his loan. In fact, the borrower could not sell the property without obtaining approval and the release of the mortgage.

The bank has the right to cancel the credit in the event of non-payment, to have the property sold during legal proceedings and to recover the balance of its debt from the proceeds of the construction of the building.

On the other hand, in the event of early repayment of your mortgage loan, the notary is required to request the release of the mortgage. Release is a legal act where the bank certifies that the borrower has fully repaid their loan.

This release is done by notarial deed which therefore generates notary fees. In practice: the release of a mortgage is only essential if you decide to sell the building. Otherwise, just let time pass to get the 30-year period to expire. In this case the mortgage will disappear automatically but this time without any costs.

Question 5

How long can my mortgage loan last?

Accepted Answer

The minimum duration is set at 8 years and the maximum duration at 30 years and depends on the age of the applicant.

Question 6

How does the credit application procedure work? Do I need to make an appointment to apply for credit?

Remy · Accepted Answer

In general, credit requests are taken by our advisors over the telephone. We then submit the file to one of our financial partners who gives us a response within 24 hours. If your application is accepted, we will schedule an appointment for you at one of our agencies so that you can sign your credit contract.

Question 7

What is an authentic act?

Remy · Accepted Answer

This is an act generally drawn up by a notary or in certain cases a bailiff.

An authentic act is enforceable against third parties, that is to say that third parties or people who are not parties to the agreement cannot question the existence of the act.

To take out a loan/mortgage credit, you must necessarily go before a notary because the deed of sale and the loan/mortgage credit contract are notarial acts.

Question 8

How long does it take for the borrowed funds to be deposited into my account?

A H · Accepted Answer

Once your credit contract is signed in our offices, your money is paid into your bank account within 24 hours. If you are a resident of Luxembourg, you will have to wait 48 hours and if the amount of the credit is superior to the sum of 25.000,00 €, a delay of 3 working days is required.
