How is Loan Against Property Eligibility Calculated?

Loan Against Property eligibility is calculated based on various factors such as the value of the property, the borrower's income and credit history, and the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio. We provide loans against property up to 75% of the property's value. The borrower's income and credit score plays a crucial role in determining eligibility. A higher income and credit score increases the chances of loan approval and reduces interest rates.

 

    Factors Affecting Loan Against Property Eligibility Criteria

    Mortgage loans are classified as secured loans. As a result, the eligibility criteria for a loan against property are straightforward and are based on the following factors

    Income

    Your income represents your EMI payment capacity. If you make a consistent income from your business, are not shouldered with multiple debts, and your debt-to-revenue ratio is less than 50, you will meet our minimum eligibility for a loan against property perfectly.

    Age

    People tend to lose their earning potential as they get older. When you reach retirement age, your earning capacity may be significantly lower than when you were younger. Thus, if you are approaching retirement age, you may not receive the maximum amount stated in the eligibility section.

    Property Location & Condition

    The loan eligibility for a property may be affected by its location. Urban properties with amenities within 3 km may get higher loans, while damaged properties may face funding challenges.

    Credit Report

    Your credit report is the most important document in informing lenders about your debt-management efforts. If the report contains remarks such as previous loan settlement or default, or details such as EMI skips and a higher credit utilisation rate, you might fail to meet the eligibility for loan against property.

    debt-to-income-ratio.png
    Loan-to-Value (LTV) Ratio

    LTV ratio is the percentage of the property value that the lender is willing to provide as a loan. The higher the LTV ratio, the greater the loan amount you may be eligible for. However, this ratio is subject to regulatory guidelines and may vary between lenders.
     

    How to Improve Your Eligibility for Loan Against Property?

    You might have made plans to secure large financing by using a property loan. Using the eligibility calculator, only to discover that you are ineligible for the loan. However, focusing on the following factors can significantly improve your loan against property eligibility:

    Add Co-applicant

    If you have an inconsistent income or average credit profile, consider introducing a co-applicant to your loan application. The co-applicant must have a good credit history, a low debt-to-income ratio, and a consistent income with not-so-frequent job changes. The co-applicant is equally liable
    for EMI payments, which reduces your debt burden and qualifies you for a loan against property.

    Choose Longer Repayment Tenure

    If you have an average business income, it is recommended you choose a longer repayment tenure. Stretching your tenure reduces your monthly debt obligations significantly, allowing you to manage your debt more effectively.

    Alternative Source of Income

     If your primary income is not very high, but you have a secondary source of income, you should include it on your loan application. A secondary source of income could be from property rent, part-time business, or freelancing. This secondary income increases your repayment potential while also improving your eligibility for a loan against property

    Improve Credit History

    Review your credit report before submitting your mortgage loan application to see if there are any negative remarks or loan defaults in your name. If so, make an effort to resolve such issues at the earliest. Look for other discrepancies in the report as well. Any incorrect information must be reported to the credit bureau immediately for correction.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

    The earning potential of an individual decreases when they approach or cross the retirement age of 60 years. In such a situation, it may become difficult for them to manage their EMIs due to lower income. Similarly, someone who has just started their career and is under the age of 25 years may not have a high income and is more likely to skip paying large EMIs.
    A longer repayment period makes your EMIs more affordable. However, it increases the total amount of interest payable for the loan tenure. However, regardless of the affordability, a loan with higher interest rate but shorter repayment tenure of 5 years may result in paying lesser interest than one with a 15-year tenure. Thus, if your budget allows, a shorter tenure loan would be a more feasible option.
    Adding a co-applicant is if you have an average income, lower credit score, poor debt-to-income ratio, or lack of some crucial documents. The co-applicant you wish to include on your application must have a good credit history. Also, the co-applicant is equally responsible for paying the mortgage loan EMI, which ultimately takes away your debt load.

Once they have determined the value of the property, they can lend between 40-75% of the LTV based on your repayment ability.
