What is Affin Home Build?
Affin Home Build is a conventional mortgage loan product that offers financing up to 90% of the property value (inclusive of MRTA and entry cost) for a contract period of up to 35 years.
The amount you can borrow is between RM100,000 to RM5,000,000 and your property will be securitized against the borrowing throughout the tenor.
What type of property can I finance with this mortgage?
Affin Bank can offer up to 70% margin of financing for completed property, while 85% for property under construction. If you throw in another 5%, the bank can pay for your moving costs (loan agreement, stamp duty, legal and disbursement fee) and protect you under MRTA.
Do I get to redraw excess money paid into this account?
No, as it is not part of this mortgage plan.
Can I pay off my mortgage early?
You can make full settlement of your mortgage before its maturity date, provided you have waited 5 years from the date of full disbursement. The bank will penalize you for any settlement done within the retention period.
What is the major risk?
