What is a loan against property?
A loan against property is a secured loan where you pledge your residential, commercial, or industrial property as collateral to borrow funds from a bank or financial institution. Loan against property can be used for various personal and professional needs such as business expansion, education, medical emergencies, or debt consolidation. Since it is backed by property, it offers lower interest rates compared to unsecured loans like personal loans and comes with longer repayment tenures, often up to 15 years. The ownership of the property remains with the borrower, but the lender holds the legal rights to it until the loan is fully repaid. Loan against property is available to both salaried and self-employed individuals, making it a versatile and affordable financing option for high-value needs.
