3. Income- Take your income and EMI amount into consideration to decide if you will be able to repay the loan comfortably.
    
4. Tax benefits- Borrowers are entitled to avail tax benefits on the loan amount they repay in a financial year and also on the accrued interest. Make sure to check which tax benefits are applicable for you.
