Ingushetia, Dagestan, and Chechnya Among the Worst in Mortgage Delinquency

A CIAN study found that Ingushetia, Dagestan, and Tuva top the list of Russian regions for mortgage delinquency. In 2025, the average delinquency rate nationwide doubled, reaching 1% (compared to 0.5% the year before), while the total debt rose to 206 billion rubles (from 95 billion).

Ingushetia led the way in mortgage delinquency with a rate of 10.6% (up 3.3% year-on-year). Dagestan ranked second (4.6%, up 1.6%), and Tuva third (4.3%, up 3.4%).
Chechnya and North Ossetia also made the top five: in both regions, the rate was 3.7%, an increase of 1.1% in 2025.

The rapid increase in delinquencies began in the fall of 2024 and, according to analysts, was caused by a combination of factors: tightening lending conditions, slowing income growth, and rising spending amid high inflation. Experts note that previously, with low interest rates and high wages, the volume of delinquencies grew slowly and even saw a decline in their share.
