What is Standard Chartered Saadiq My Home-i?
The Syariah compliant Standard Chartered Saadiq My Home-i is a conventional term loan with fixed monthly installments based on the Islamic principle of Musyarakah. It is very straightforward with no flexibility to deposit additional cash.
This term loan can be used to secure residential properties, whether completed or under-construction. Minimum financing amount is RM500,000, arguably one of the lowest in Malaysia.
What are the benefits of a Standard Chartered Saadiq My Home-i housing loan?
This loan is ideal for folks who require more control of their cash flow every month and prefer to pay a fixed amount for a fixed period of time. If you like it plain and simple, this is the mortgage for you. The interest rate is lower compared to a fully flexible loan, like the Saadiq My HomeOne-i, by up to 0.05%, there's also a ceiling rate protection that shields you from any IBR fluctuation.
I am not a Muslim; can I still apply this loan?
Why would that stop you? Of course you can apply - this loan is open to everyone!
Can a foreigner apply?
Yes. However, you must have a valid working visa of more than one year and your maximum margin of finance will be 80% of the property value.
Do I need to buy any insurance?
A Fire Takaful is compulsory. It is also encouraged to take up the MRTT to protect you and your family from a financial difficulty if anything unfortunate were to happen to you. The premium is payable as a one off payment when your loan is approved.
