Buying a home of their own is every humans’ dream. However, how do they prepare for this endeavour, especially in terms of finance, is completely up to them. We all know buying a home can be an expensive task and would require nothing less than a fortune. Some choose a simple home loan, some save a bit of their income every month and buy a house using it. However, there are people who would like to take a home loan but wouldn’t want to risk losing their property in case of non-repayment of loan. Thus, they go for a loan against property to finance the purchase of their new homes.
Loan against property is a credit scheme which allows people to mortgage their pre-owned residential or commercial property and avail a loan against it.
