What benefits does the Home Financing buyout option offer?

Home Financing can be one of your biggest outgoings every month and even a slight reduction in the profit rate on your home financing facility can amount to substantial savings. Reducing your monthly commitment on the EMIs can be done by:

  • Being offered a better rate from another bank
  • Changing to a longer tenure

Can I get another financing facility on an existing home financing facility?

Depending on the market value of your property vs the outstanding financing balance, you may apply for a top-up on your existing financing facility. The bank would require a recent dated property valuation report (the cost of which is borne by the customer).

How much could I finance?

The amount you can finance in Equity Release depends on the value of your property. Depending on your property valuation and the amount that you currently owe on your home financing, you may be able to finance a higher sum than what you currently owe. Have a property to evaluate?
