Tips to keep in mind while applying for a home loan
When applying for a housing loan, keep the below tips in mind :
- Check your CIBIL score and try and optimise it, so you can avail of the best possible terms. Make sure you repay your EMIs on time and close any other loans, where possible, to showcase a higher repayment capacity.
- Check your home loan eligibility and affordability with a home loan EMI calculator. You can check the home loan EMI amount for different loan amounts and tenor combinations to decide which combination works best for your finances.
- Apply for a loan amount that you can repay with ease. When you apply for a sum beyond your eligibility, you reduce your chances of approval.
- Choose your home loan tenor wisely. While a long tenor offers you. smaller EMIs, you end up paying more in interest over the course of the tenor. On the other hand, if you pick a short tenor, you become debt-free sooner, but your finances may be stretched every month. Ideally, one should pick a tenor between the two, wherein you are able to pay your EMIs easily, but you are not paying too much in interest.
- Reduce your other obligations. When you apply for a home loan, one of the factors assessed to ascertain your profile and eligibility is FOIR, or Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio. This showcases your repayment capacity as a measure of how much disposable income you are left with after paying your monthly obligations. Thus, it is ideal you close other loans before applying, freeing up that much income to redirect towards your home loan EMI.

The repayment period for loans begins immediately after the lender has disbursed the entire housing loan amount.

You start paying your home loan EMI when the disbursement cheque is created. Once you receive the loan amount, you begin paying EMIs as per the EMI cycle. This means if your chosen date for EMI repayment is the 5th of a month and you receive the loan on the 28th of the month, then for the first month you pay EMI calculated from the day your house loan was sanctioned to your first EMI date. Next month onwards, you pay regular EMIs on the designated day.
