A Loan Against Property (LAP), also known as a property loan is a versatile financial option for borrowers looking to secure sizeable funds to meet their housing or business requirements. The funds can also be used for debt consolidation. These loans are availed of against real estate assets, such as residential or commercial properties, which in turn serve as collateral.
Under Loan Against Property, with the right credit profile and property value, borrowers can access sizeable funds.
Features and Benefits
Sizeable Loan Amount
Property loans are one of the few loan options that give borrowers access to substantial loan amounts of Rs.5 Crore* or higher, basis eligibility.
Long Repayment Tenor
A Loan Against Property comes with a long and flexible repayment tenor. Borrowers can repay their loan over a period extending up to 17 years. A long repayment period can help borrowers keep their EMIs feasible and interest outgo minimal.
Competitive Interest Rates
LAP is secured by collateral or security and can be obtained at a low interest rate. This can significantly help borrowers in reducing the overall cost of borrowing as compared to unsecured loans.
Flexible End-Use
Loans Against Property can be utilised to cover various expenses, including home renovations or business ventures such as establishing a start-up. They can also be used to consolidate debts.
Loan Against Balance Transfer Facility
