HCM CITY (Biz Hub) — HCM City Development Bank (HDBank) is offering promotional interest rates on loans to buy apartments and houses in Mon City in Ha Noi. They will only be available this month.

The promotional rate for apartment buyers is 3.5 per cent, while that for loans to buy houses will be zero for the first six months. For the next six months, the rate will be 8 per cent, before it becomes market-driven.

The bank also announced that it has given a guarantee of VND1.4 trillion (US$63.6 million) to Mon City's key investor, one of the first housing projects to get a bank guarantee as stipulated in the Housing and Property Law, which was amended last July.

HDBank is one of the biggest joint stock lenders in Viet Nam. Mon City is being developed by Hai Dang Real Estate Company and will be completed in the second quarter of next year. — VNS
