Hi,

How to do re-finance and what's the procedure?

Which bank do you think offer the best re-finance?

CIMB

why CIMB? benefit?

i refinance with cimb, but they don't offer the best rates in town

eon bank offers -2.2%
hong leong offers -2.0% first 5 yrs, thereafter 2.2%

cimb offers -1.95%, and all above are flexi

reason i took cimb, well no.1, the customer service was better than the others, she wasn't pushy, at least i got my own time to consider.

and most importantly was because of its convenience, i have multiple accounts and investments in cimb, so i guess it reduces the hassle to transfer money to pay for bank loans, hence i took up cimb's offer.

HSBC -2.1% and no upfront cost if using bank's panel lawyer

Any Hong Leong ppl around? Want to do refinancing.

can check Std Chartered, it was lowest early this year when I refinanced. Better compare few banks, just call one by one to ask the rate, shortlisted few banks & make an appointment to meet them. Must do it fast coz everyday is counted interest.

Better be fast, TS still got 7 days left.

Hi all, I've pm-ed some of you. Do check.
Yes, you are right, Hong Leong does offer a good package with good T&C.

A friend of mine just bought a house (sub-sale). The seller's bank is Hong Leong. The bank is VERY slow in their processing. Even though the loan redemption has been done by the buyer's bank, HL bank still taking their own sweet time. The seller is also impatient liao.

uob BLR-2.2
PBB blr-2.3

ZEC

Hmmm... actually, the speed of disbursement is subjective. It normally takes approximately 1.5 - 2 months from submission of documents to disbursement. On the bank's side, preparation of documents, valuation and background checks normally take ~2 weeks or so. But the preparation of legal documents takes about a month.

This is an unavoidable time frame. If it takes longer than two months, then some problem or additional documentation needs to be sourced. If you are taking a loan from any credit institution, you will be dealing with either a banker or a mortgage broker. It is up to these customer service representatives to update you on the process of the loan. Then chase the bank side and the legal office to give more priority on your application and expedite the process.

This is why choosing a good broker is important. Of course, as far as brokers go, we wouldn't want to work with bankers or legal reps if they are slow and unfriendly. So we have the choice to select different legal reps or different banking establishments or branches.

just apply few bank and compare,
