Russian residents are offered a family mortgage to purchase secondary housing in Ukrainian cities. Among them is the town of Snihurivka in Mykolaiv region.

This is evidenced by the list published on the website of the operator of the preferential programme «Dom.RF».

The opportunity to purchase housing on the secondary market under the programme «Family Mortgage», according to the organisation, will be available from 1 April 2025. The list includes 901 settlements where you can buy property.

Among the hundreds of Russian cities, you can see cities in Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk, Luhansk and Kherson regions. In terms of the latter region, Russians are offered to buy property in Mykolaiv region, namely in the town of Snihurivka, which has been under Ukrainian control since November 2022.

It is worth noting that the town of Snihurivka in Mykolaiv region came under the control of Russian troops on 19 March 2022. For almost 8 months of occupation, the Russians looted and removed property from educational and cultural institutions, destroyed entire abandoned areas with shelling, and committed a number of war crimes that are still being investigated by law enforcement agencies.

However, during the occupation, on 30 September, representatives of the illegal Russian authorities announced the annexation of the Kherson region, which included the entire former Snihurivka district under Russian control. On 5 October, Vladimir Putin signed a law on the incorporation of four regions of Ukraine into Russia, including part of the occupied Mykolaiv region.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces managed to liberate Snihurivka in November 2022.
