In February 2018 Center-invest Bank launched a new virtual reality application, which allows customers to take a virtual tour of their future new-build apartments.

Center-invest Bank’s digitalisation strategy has created new opportunities for our customers. The bank’s Head Office now has a virtual reality presentation area, where customers can view apartments that are available to purchase and eligible for mortgage finance. Using this technology, customers can assess the layout and dimensions of a property, choose their preferred specifications, and consider their furnishing options.

It is intended in the near future to expand the database of apartments and increase the options available from various property developers in Rostov-on-Don.

"I never thought that when taking out a mortgage I could have a virtual tour around my own apartment, right there in the bank, and even get to see the furnishings and different design options!" said Anna Lazarenko, one of our customers. "I can’t wait to move in!"

The bank’s advisors accompany customers on the virtual tours and help them to choose the most suitable mortgage products (starting at 8.75% per annum). The maximum loan term is 20 years, and the minimum deposit is 10%. Insurance is not mandatory and there are no hidden fees.

This product is currently available at the bank’s Head Office and will be rolled out across Center-invest Bank’s branch network.
