What is home loan?

A Home Loan is a type of secured loan that individuals borrow from banks or financial institutions specifically for the purpose of purchasing, constructing, extending, or renovating a residential property. In this type of loan, the purchased or constructed property itself serves as security (collateral) for the borrowed amount.

You receive a lump sum, which is then repaid over a predetermined period, typically through Equated Monthly Installments (EMIs). It’s crucial to remember that a home loan is a substantial financial commitment, often requiring a down payment – a percentage of the property’s purchase price paid upfront. YesLoans helps you carefully assess your financial situation and find loan terms that align with your repayment capacity.

Why Choose YesLoans for Your Home Loan?

FAQ

Should I consider transferring my home loan balance? Is it a smart move?

Here are some factors to consider when evaluating if it is a smart move or not which are as follows:

  • Interest Rate Differential: If the new lender is offering a significantly lower interest rate, it could result in substantial interest savings over the loan tenure.
  • Savings on EMIs: A lower interest rate on the transferred loan can potentially reduce your Equated Monthly Installments (EMIs), freeing up your cash flow and providing financial relief.
  • Remaining Loan Tenure: If you are already in the later stages of your loan repayment, the interest savings through a balance transfer may not be significant enough
  • Customer Service and Benefits: It may include features like a top-up loan facility, flexible repayment options, or better customer service experience, which could add value to the overall borrowing experience.
How many times am I allowed to transfer my home loan balance?

There is no specific limit on the number of times you can transfer your home loan balance. However, the feasibility and benefits of transferring your home loan balance multiple times depend on various factors, such as the terms and conditions of your existing loan, the prevailing interest rates, and the costs associated with each transfer.

It is advisable to carefully evaluate the costs, benefits, and overall financial impact before considering a balance transfer.

Will my CIBIL score be affected by a balance transfer?

When you opt for a balance transfer of your home loan in India, it may have an impact on your Credit Information Bureau (India) Limited (CIBIL) score, which is one of the credit scoring models. It’s always advisable to be mindful of the potential impact on your credit score and ensure that you maintain a positive payment history, keep credit inquiries to a minimum, and manage your debts responsibly to minimize any adverse effects on your CIBIL score.

What is the shortest duration required for a home loan transfer?

The shortest duration required for a home loan transfer, also known as a home loan balance transfer, can vary among different lenders. Generally, lenders have a minimum lock-in period, which is the minimum duration you must maintain your home loan with the current lender before you can initiate a balance transfer. The lock-in period typically ranges from 6 months to 24 months, although it can differ from lender to lender. During this period, you are expected to maintain your home loan with the existing lender and adhere to the terms and conditions of the loan agreement.

Can I get two home loans from the same bank?

Yes, it is possible to get two home loans from the same bank in India, subject to the bank’s policies and your eligibility criteria. However, obtaining multiple home loans from the same bank may depend on various factors, including your creditworthiness, income, repayment capacity, and the bank’s internal guidelines. It’s important to note that managing multiple home loans simultaneously requires careful financial planning and consideration of your repayment capacity. It’s recommended to evaluate your financial situation, assess the potential risks and benefits, and consult with the bank to understand their specific policies and requirements

What's the minimum credit score for a personal loan?

Most lenders prefer borrowers to have a credit score of 650 or above to be eligible for a personal loan. It’s important to note that while credit score is an essential factor in loan approval, it’s not the sole determining factor. Lenders also consider other aspects of an applicant’s profile, such as income, employment stability, debt-to-income ratio, and repayment capacity.
