eOselia at 3 and 7 per cent: who qualifies in 2026
Who gets 3 per cent and who gets 7 under the eOselia programme as at October 2026: categories, the 52.5 plus 21 area norm, and the most common reason.
This section covers the two state programmes people actually buy with in Odesa: the eOselia subsidised mortgage and eVidnovlennia housing certificates. The terms change by government decision, so each article is kept in line with official sources, and the market figures come from the agency database.
As of 22.10.2026, 963 apartments meet the three-year age condition; displaced persons have a twenty-year limit, which 2 287 apartments meet. Apartments in new builds sell from 21 044 $, with a median metre price of 1 260 $.
Where to start
The order is simple. First check whether you qualify by category and rate, and do that with a participating bank or in the Diia app, because the bank holds your status. Then check which buildings meet the age condition: that is the most common reason a chosen apartment fails. Only then start viewings.
Buyers lose the most time doing it backwards: a month of viewings, then the discovery that the building is older than the limit or the queue is different.
