What is Loan
Against Property

A Loan Against Property (LAP) is a secured loan, wherein you can mortgage your residential, commercial, or special-use property to get immediate funds for various purposes, ranging from business expenditure to personal needs. In LAP, the property you own, which has a clear title, is kept with the bank as collateral or security, helping you get financial assistance in the form of a secured loan against property.Whether you are looking for a secured loan against a house or a business loan against property, LAP offers you the flexibility to access substantial funds based on the value of your property.

Features of Loan Against Property

Lower rates

Loan against property, being a secured loan, carries a lower rate of interest than an unsecured loan

Higher borrowing limits

Due to its longer repayment tenure, an individual can opt for a higher amount of loan with the same EMI than an unsecured loan

Longer repayment terms

LAP is normally available for as long as 15 years. Thus the burden of cash outflow per month on the individual is lower, enabling him to manage his cashflow cycle better.

Benefits of Loan Against Property

Lower interest rate

Since the loan is secured by collateral, typically a house or commercial property, the interest rates on a secured loan against property are generally lower than unsecured loa

Lower to Nil Prepayment Charges

You can close your LAP by making prepayments. Many lenders offer Loan Against Residential Property without or with minimal prepayment penalties.

Easy to get

Being a secured loan, banks and NBFCs are more inclined to approve such loans, making business loans against property or residential property easier to obtain.

Longer tenure

These loans are generally available for longer tenure going up to 15 years while the tenure in case of personal loan is generally up to 7 years.

Lower EMI

There is an inverse relationship between tenure and EMI. Longer the tenure lower will be the EMI and vice versa. As these are available for a longer tenure, these become suitable for people who can’t afford to pay higher EMIs. However, it is always advisable that a person should take a loan for the shortest tenure as the interest burden will be lower in the case of short tenure loan.

Eligibility criteria for Loan Against Property

Income of the applicant

The bank will assess whether your income is sufficient to pay the monthly EMI , net of all other expenses and financial obligations, if any

01
Age of the applicant

Age of applicant is important because the bank expects you to be paying your EMI within your working age, out of your monthly earnings. Hence the tenure of the loan is limited to the expected retirement age.

02
Value of property

A bank can recover its financed amount by sale of the property in question, if there is default in repayment of the loan. Hence, banks normally provide finance only upto 70-75% of the value of property being mortgaged, so that appropriate buffer is maintained to provide for price fluctuation and depreciation of the property over the period of the loan.

03
Existing Liabilities (if any)

If the applicant has any existing loans or any other financial obligations on a monthly basis, then the loan amount sanctioned reduces, because the EMI paying capacity on the new loan is reduced by the existing liability amount.

If the property is rented, interest may also be claimed under Section 24. However, if the loan is used for personal expenses, tax benefits are not applicable.

Can I close my loan against property before tenure?
