What do I need to know about Bangkok Bank Home Loan?
This is a conventional housing loan from Bangkok Bank. Your borrowing amount and interest rate will be determined based on your credit report - that means how well you've been paying for your other debts in the past.
What are my commitments with this housing loan?
You are required to pay your mortgage instalment every month, calculated using the Base Rate (BR) as reference - this is the rate at which banks borrow from each other. Your repayments may go up or down throughout your tenure.
Who can apply this mortgage?
Only Malaysians aged 18 years and above with a monthly salary of at least RM5,000 are eligible to apply for the Bangkok Bank Home Loan.
Am I allowed to make any cash withdrawals from my mortgage account?
Unfortunately, cash withdrawals are not allowed for this housing loan.
Can I settle my mortgage early?
If you want to settle your home loan within 3 years, you'll need to pay a 5% early settlement fee if you pay within the 3 year lock-in period. There's also late payment penalty fee where the charges are subject to Bangkok Bank's sole descretion. The charges will be stated in your mortgage agreement, so do read through the terms and conditions carefully!
