Market overview
Hungarian mortgages are dominated by OTP Bank (the dominant domestic bank), Erste Bank Hungary, K&H (KBC subsidiary), CIB Bank (Intesa Sanpaolo), and Raiffeisen Bank. The Hungarian National Bank (MNB) holds policy rate at 6.50% in early 2026, having cut from peak 13.0% in 2023. Hungary has a state-subsidized first-home program (CSOK Plusz) providing fixed 3% subsidized mortgages to qualifying families with children, replacing the older CSOK system in 2024.
Why 6.85% is the typical rate
6.85% reflects a typical 5-year fixed mortgage rate for a salaried Hungarian borrower at 80% LTV in early 2026. CSOK Plusz subsidized rate is fixed 3% for the entire loan term, dramatically below market, but eligibility is strict (married couples with 1+ children planning more, specific home types, income brackets).
Tax & regulatory notes
Mortgage interest is not generally deductible from Hungarian personal income tax for owner-occupiers. Property transfer tax (illeték) is 4% of purchase price (2% for first-time buyers up to HUF 40 million, with full exemption for under-35 first-time buyers buying primary residences under specific thresholds). VAT of 5% applies to new-build residential properties; resales are exempt. Foreign EU/EEA buyers face the same rules as Hungarians; non-EU buyers may need approval from local government for agricultural land.
