Save your hard earned money

Struggling to manage your existing EMI payments? Many people face a new challenge every month to make timely EMI payments, which affects their peace of mind and happiness levels. A balance transfer from your existing loan to a one with Piramal Finance can ensure that you remain creditworthy throughout the tenure of your home loan. It can provide peace of mind by helping you navigate through challenging times at a more comfortable pace.

If your monthly installment amounts are too high, you can extend your tenure and thus lower the burden on yourself and your loved ones to pay off the loan. If you find that making heavy interest payments is affecting your ability to save and invest your own money then it may be time to transfer your home loan. You can also use the restructuring to help reinvest in your business, carry out renovations and raise funds for other purposes as well.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a home loan balance transfer?

    The process of transferring the existing principal loan amount on your new house to a new bank is called a home loan balance transfer. It is a way of reducing interest rate payments. Balance transfers are recommended during the early years of your home loan tenure if your lender’s interest rate is comparatively higher than others in the market. You can also do a balance transfer to shift between floating and fixed interest rates and get a higher amount with a loan top up.

  • What are the advantages of a home loan balance transfer?

    If you have been regular in your EMI payments and maintain good records with your lender, you stand a chance of resuming your EMI payments with a new bank at a lower interest rate. You also have the added advantage of taking a loan top up, which is an additional loan amount the new bank will offer which can increase your tenure.

  • Is it possible to merge more than two loans?

    Yes, with the home loan balance transferred to a new bank, you can combine your other home loan installments as one to avail the benefits of lower interest with the new bank.

  • How long does a home loan balance transfer take?

    The lender will have to assess your eligibility again, so the process duration usually ranges from 7 days to 3 weeks.

  • What is the balance transfer process?

    The process for transferring balance is simple:

    • Request your current lender for the documents to refinance the loan.
    • Get the consent letter and document from the present lender and submit them to the new lender.
    • Transfer of the outstanding amount to the new lender.
    • Closure of the old account. Future payments will be made to the new lender.
    • The old lender will hand property documents to the new lender, which marks the end of the process.
