THE PARAMETERS INVOLVED IN HOUSING LOAN EVALUATION:
There are a number of parameters on which the housing loans are built:
They are:
1. TENURE
The tenure of the home loan refers to the time limit for a customer to repay the loan. Generally,
the maximum tenure of home loans is 20 years, with a few lenders offering tenure of 20 years or
more (ABHFL has recently launched a 30 years loan). The longer the tenure, more a customer
pays in total interest, but monthly payments will be less.
So depending on the earning potential and bank balance of the customer, an appropriate can be
chose. An important requirement of most banks/ HFIs is that they pay up the entire loan before
you retire. The customer can always prepay the entire loan amount before it is due. As long as the
tenure goes up a customer pays more interest which is up to 0.25 – 0.5%, generally above the home
loan rates.

7. 2. AMOUNT PAID BY THE FINANCER/ MARGIN REQUIREMENTS
The financer does not pay the entire amount of the loan, they request the customer to maintain
margin, most banks go in for an 85% funding of the property value including the stamp duty and
charges, and it however varies among various banks.
This is also treated as the margin money or own contribution required to be put by the prospective
loan seeker as the contribution towards the purchase of the house. Most HFIs believe the amount
paid is upfront before they release any disbursement. As a rule of thumb, depending upon the HFC,
the prospective loan seeker has to cough up 15% - 20% of the loan amount as a down payment.
For smaller amounts, this may not be much. But for figures running into lacks, this could make
loads of difference.
For example: An apartment costing Rs. 10lacss may get 85 per cent financing. So, customer has
to arrange for the remaining Rs 1.5lacs. Some banks however make way for the payment for 90%
of financing and about 100% financing for some new projects, however they are subjected to a
large number of factors and constrains.
3. INTEREST RATES
Without doubt the most important parameter to factor into home loan calculations. The interest
rates may vary from institutions to institutions and generally range from about 9.65% - 12.75% to
around 11.5% Repayment is in the form of EMIs (Equated Monthly installments). The longer the
tenure, the more you pay in interest, but your monthly payment will be less.
The two kinds of interest rates available to a customer are:
• Fixed interest rates
• Floating interest rates
Fixed interest rates remain fixed over the tenure of the loan.
Floating interest rates are affected by the rates in the market, they fluctuate according to the rates
issued or changed by the RBI from time to time.
As per the new rate structure, customer will have to pay 10.5% on the home loans with a floating
rate, while the fixed home loan will now invite an interest of 12.5%.
With this increase, the monthly installment on an Rs.1lakh loan for 20 years goes up by Rs70.
Some public sector banks do so only once in 12 months while some private sector lenders do it as
frequently as a quarter. Though the current interest rate quote maybe lower, over the life of the
loan, a customer will be able saved more in the case of a lender who resets your floating rate more
frequently.
The investors are also given the option of changing their option from fixed rate loan to a floating
rate loan, of course by paying a penalty.
