If the institution sells real estate on a known deferred payment basis at a price higher than the immediate cash price, this is an installment sale, which is permissible. However, if it deals with an interest-based system, by increasing the price on the buyer when he delays in payment, this is not permissible, and it is forbidden to work with them because it constitutes cooperation in sin.
