With the high competition between banks it has become so
easy to raise a home loan for purchase of property in a week days of time with
the best and least home loan interest rates, but the actual challenge lays post
disbursement of the loan. There are people who sold their property or left them
to bank due to failure of EMI payments. These are some cases where people are
suffering for not knowing how to manage the loan post home loan disbursement.
The process of securing your housing loans starts from the
day 1 when you start the housing loans process. Every customer is advised to
take photo copies of all documents submitted to bank and keep it for future
references and cross check the home loan rates with other banks before
applying. Most of the customers sign the
home loan applications and agreements when they are blank which is not at all
suggestible, will you sign a blank cheque without writing anything and give it
to somebody then why you are ok to sign the housing loans agreement without
filling it, ask the bank officials to fill the agreement and then sign it.
All the customers will sign two copies of home loan
agreements one of which will be received by customer post housing loans disbursement.
The agreement will have all the details of your loan and their terms i.e. loan
amount, interest rate, repayment period, EMI, Processing fee paid, list of
documents deposited etc. one should retain this copy of agreement till the loan
completion. The agreement will have a copy of General Power of Attorney which
should be read before signing if any clause is objectionable to you then you
can ask bank for a clarification.
Along with these one should make more down payment towards
the property and raise lesser loan amount which will ease the process of making
EMI payments and gives us the scope of saving to pre close the loan. On a blink
calculation any customers who go for housing loans will pay 125% of
the loan amount as interest to the bank. So opting for lesser loan amount will
save money and will secure the loan. It is always advisable to the customer to
opt for Home Loan Linked Life Insurance which covers the loan amount in case of
death of the applicant and waves the remaining EMI’s by releasing the property
from the bank. Banks fund for these insurances along with housing loans and it
is a onetime premium which will secure both the housing loans and applicant’s
loan burden.
