Home loan rates touch historic lows; here's what is on offer

 In India, home loan rates have never been more appealing. Banks have lowered rates below 7% for the first time in recent years, thanks to new rates linked to the repo rate, which is at an all-time low of 4%, combined with low demand.

Would you be able to secure a home loan today for as low as 6.7 percent from Union Bank of India, which is the lowest offering for women borrowers who are salaried and have a decent CIBIL score?

Home loans from Bank of India start at 6.85 percent, whereas home loans from SBI, HDFC Limited, Axis Bank, ICICI Bank, and Kotak Mahindra Bank start at 6.90 percent, and so on.

To entice customers, banks are cutting interest rates and offering Christmas season discounts on these loans. For loans applied for through SBI's YONO app, for example, all processing fees have been waived. It also offers a credit score-based interest rate reduction of up to 10 basis points (bps) and a 5 basis point rate reduction if the loan is applied using the YONO app.

Under its 'Monsoon Bonanza' scheme, HDFC is offering discounted house loan rates starting at 6.90 percent, a special offer of home loans up to 90% of the property value, a lower processing fee, and no pre-payment penalty on foreclosure of home loans. ICICI Bank is giving house loans with processing fees starting at Rs 3,000 plus GST, as well as a 100 percent loan top-up. The processing charge on home loans has also been eliminated by Bank of Baroda.

While these deals are appealing, there are a few things to consider if you're thinking about taking out a home loan.

  1. To discover the cheapest choice, compare interest rates: Examine the rates, terms, and other sorts of lending plans that are available.
  2. To avoid any unwelcome shocks in the future, read the fine print to see the loan's terms and conditions.
  3. Make yourself informed of all costs, including paperwork fees, processing fees, late payment fees, prepayment fees, legal fees, and so on, before deciding on a home loan programme.
  4. Find out what tax savings you can get on your home loans by speaking with your accountant.
Here are the criteria that will determine the rates that banks offer you in the end.

  1. Your credit score is the first. When you ask for a loan, banks will always examine your credit score. If you have an excellent credit history with no defaults, you are more likely to receive a better/lower rate from the bank than someone who has a poor payback history.
  2. Because the bank perceives a lower risk of default for this type of borrowers, borrowers with a consistent, high income are rewarded with lower interest rates. It also matters what kind of job you have: Salaried candidates are more likely to receive a lower rate than self-employed applicants.
  3. The size of the loan determines the interest rate.
  4. The more money you pay as a down payment up front, the cheaper your EMI.
  5. You can choose between a "Fixed" and a "Floating" rate. On average, floating rates are lower than fixed rates.
