Do’s and Don'ts while applying for a home loan
When applying for a house loan, there are several do's and don'ts that you should keep in mind:
| Do’s | Don’ts |
|---|---|
| Do your research: Research different lenders and their loan terms and rates to find the best deal that suits your needs. | Don't apply for other loans or credit cards: Avoid applying for other loans or credit cards while you are in the process of applying for a house loan. This can negatively impact your credit score and make it harder to get approved. |
| Check your credit score: A good credit score is crucial when applying for a house loan. Check your credit report and make sure your credit score is in good standing. | Don't make any large purchases: Avoid making any large purchases or taking on new debt before your loan is approved. This can also negatively impact your credit score and make it harder to get approved. |
| Get pre-approved: Getting pre-approved for a loan can help you understand how much you can borrow and what your monthly payments will be. This can also give you an advantage when negotiating with sellers. | Don't hide any information: Be honest about your financial situation and don't try to hide any information from your lender. This can lead to a denial of your loan application or legal consequences. |
| Be prepared to provide documentation: Be prepared to provide all the necessary documentation, such as tax returns, bank statements, and employment verification, to help your lender make a decision. | Don't rush into a decision: Take your time to review all the terms and conditions of your home loan before making a decision. Rushing into a decision can lead to financial trouble down the line. |
| Read the fine print: Read all loan terms and conditions carefully before signing to avoid any hidden fees or surprises. Be aware of other charges such as processing fees and stamp duty. | Don't ignore the fees: Make sure you understand all the fees associated with your loan, such as origination fees, appraisal fees, and closing costs. Ignoring these fees can lead to unexpected costs and financial strain. |
Tips to Increase Your Chances of Getting a Home Loan
You can increase your chances of getting a housing loan by taking the following steps:
Maintain a good credit score: A high credit score is an essential factor for getting a Home Loan approved. If you have a low credit score, work on turning it into a good credit score by paying off your debts on time, reducing your credit utilization ratio, and correcting any errors in your credit report. Note that checking your credit report regularly does not hurt your credit score.
Choose a property within your budget: Lenders will assess your repayment capacity based on your income, expenses, and other debts. So, choose a property that is within your budget, and don't borrow more than what you can afford.
Save for a down payment: Having a significant down payment reduces the loan amount, which can increase your chances of loan approval. Aim to save at least 20% of the property value as a down payment so that you can comfortably pay your Home Loan EMIs on the rest of the amount.
Provide all necessary documents: To apply for a housing loan, you need to provide several documents, such as identity proof, address proof, income proof, property documents, and bank statements. Make sure you have all the required documents ready and provide accurate information.
Add a co-applicant: If your income is not sufficient to meet the eligibility criteria, you can add a co-applicant, such as your spouse, parent, or sibling, who has a stable income and a good credit score.
Avoid applying for multiple loans at once: Applying for multiple loans at the same time can affect your credit score negatively and reduce your chances of house loan approval. So, apply for a Home Loan only when you need it.
Choose a lender wisely: Do your research and compare the interest rates, fees, and terms and conditions offered by different lenders. Choose a lender who offers a competitive home loan interest rate and favorable terms and conditions.

When applying for a Home Loan, keep these things in mind
A Home Loan can help you become a homeowner while providing tax benefits. To apply for housing finance, you typically need to pay a percentage of the property cost upfront, with the remaining loan amount paid over a fixed period. Both the principal loan amount and interest repayments are eligible for tax deductions under Income Tax laws. Applying for a Housing Loan can be done in person at a bank branch or loan processing center, or online. Here are some tips to keep in mind when applying for a Home Loan:
Tip 1: Calculate your Equated Monthly Installments (EMIs) and determine how much you can afford based on your take-home pay and expenses, including other loan and credit card repayments. You can quickly know your home loan EMI amount using the Home Loan EMI calculator.
Tip 2: Apply for a loan amount that is within your eligibility to increase your chances of getting approved, and plan for the rest of the down payment accordingly. You can understand the general parameters for home loan eligibility from the Bajaj Housing Finance website.
Tip 3: Consider applying for a housing loan with a lender where you already have a relationship as this can reduce the time and documentation required for the Know Your Customer (KYC) procedure.
Tip 4: A good repayment record and a high CIBIL score can work in your favor, as the bank may offer faster approval and disbursal, flexible repayment schedules, or lower processing charges. In some cases, you may also be offered a lower interest rate on the home loan.
Tip 5: Check that the project where you plan to buy your house has all regulatory and environmental clearances in place or check if your bank has a list of approved projects. This can help with the faster approval of your home loan application.
Tip 6: If you need a higher loan amount but your salary does not permit it, consider taking a joint loan with a spouse, parent, or sibling. You could also opt for a longer home loan tenor, which means a lower EMI and less burden on your monthly finances.
