What is a Home Loan Balance Transfer?
A Home Loan Balance Transfer is the easiest way to possibly avail of a lower interest rate, thereby saving more over the course of your tenure and managing your EMIs more comfortably. Opting for a Home Loan Balance Transfer is a smart way to get a reduced interest rate.
A Home Loan Balance Transfer is a financial facility that lets you enjoy an attractive interest rate and other benefits by requesting a transfer of your Home Loan balance amount to a new lender at a reduced cost. Your new lender pays the loan on your behalf, and you repay the loan amount with the added benefit of availing of a Top-up Loan, basis eligibility.
Before you decide to transfer your Home Loan balance, you should have all the necessary information at your disposal to make an informed decision and do what’s best for your financial health.
How Does a Housing Loan Balance Transfer Work?
Thinking of switching to a new lender? Here’s how a Home Loan Balance Transfer typically works:
- Once a borrower decides to shift their loan to another lender, the first thing they should do is inform their current lender of their decision.
- Then, your current lender will review the application and provide a no-objection certificate.
- After that, you will have to submit this NOC letter and your Home Loan transfer application to your new lender. The new lender will then require documents to process your application. These documents may include KYC documents, property-related documents, proof of income (salary slips, Form 16, and ITR), business continuity proofs, etc. Then, your new lender will approve your application and open your loan account with them.
- Upon approval, the new lender will pay off the outstanding loan amount to your old lender so that your previous loan account can be closed. Here the borrower will be required to pay a Home Loan Balance Transfer fee.
- Once this is done, you can start your loan journey afresh and start paying your Home Loan EMIs to your new lender.
Features of a Home Loan Balance Transfer
Below are the features of a Home Loan Balance Transfer:
- It lets you shift your Home Loan balance to a new lender who offers better loan terms and benefits.
- You also stand to benefit from a sizeable Top-up Loan, which helps you meet housing expenses.
