A home loan balance transfer is the easiest way to ensure substantial savings in the form of a lower interest rate. Borrowers often find themselves with a higher interest rate than the current market standard, typically due to a dip in the market. In such a case, you can choose to apply for a balance transfer and avail of a reduced interest rate.

The benefit of a lower interest rate can be converted into either lower EMIs or a shorter tenor, depending on whether your priority is more comfortable repayment or earlier repayment. Home loan balance transfer also offers the advantage of a sizeable top-up loan, which can be availed of for any other financial needs you may have. The benefit here is that the additional sum comes with a relatively lower interest rate compared to other unsecured loans, such as a personal loan.

Bajaj Finserv offers home loan balance transfer starting at 8.80% p.a, with EMIs as low as Rs. 783/lakh*. Applicants also have the option to avail of a top-up loan worth Rs. 1 Cr* or even higher, depending on their eligibility.

Use our home loan balance transfer calculator to compute your savings, as well as your top-up loan eligibility. By transferring your home loan to Bajaj Finserv, you benefit from a suite of features such as a flexible repayment tenor, online account management, attractive interest rates, hassle-free prepayments, and more. Assess the costs of conducting a balance transfer and then, apply online and submit a few documents to have your application processed speedily.
