What is CIMB Flexi Home Financing-i?
This Flexi Home Financing-i from CIMB is a flexible Islamic home loan linked to a special Islamic current account. It is flexible in the sense that you will be given the option to pay extra on your mortgage repayments, and you'll be able to withdraw those advance cash whenever you need extra money.
CIMB Islamic can provide up to 90% margin of financing for the purchase of your dream house, whether it is completed or under construction. Throw in another 5%, the Islamic bank will cover the cost of GMTP, Legal and Valuation Fee.
What's so unique about this Islamic home loan?
You will be charged a lower profit charge when depositing your repayments into the linked Special Mudharabah Current Account-i (SMCA-i), if you do decide to open one.
Moreover, you can earn profit from the remaining balance in your SMCA-i account via those extra cash you have topped up on top of your original instalment amount. That's not all, you can withdraw that extra money out of your Islamic current account for any kind of transactions.
What are my commitments with this mortgage?
You will need to pay your monthly instalment, which consists of the principal amount plus profit rate, which is calculated based on a variable rate. The downside of a floating rate is that your monthly instalment will be costly when there's an increase in the Islamic bank's base rate.
There is no monthly service fee charged to your home financing-i account so you can enjoy cost-savings.
Do I need insurance with this Home Loan?
Group Mortgage Takaful Plan is optional, but in most cases highly recommended to protect from the risk of losing your family's property due to unforeseen circumstances, such as illness, accident, loss of employment or worse. Fire Takaful is necessary for most mortgages.
Why should I choose the CIMB Flexi Home Financing-i?
The benefits fall mostly to those earning irregular or commission based wages, as you are given the flexibility to restructure your monthly installments according to your current financial position.
By paying more, you can save on interest charges in the future, while also effectively reducing your tenure.
