Have you guys heard? There is a rumour going on saying that Bank Negara is telling all banks to abolish the lock-in period when you buy a property, for both new and existing loans, starting 1st July. So now the banks will counter this by raising the interest rates (from BLR - 2.4 to BLR - 1.8). So this is going to be a good time to refinance your property that has raised significantly in price.

I receive this news from a respected bulk purchase group over email today. I wonder how true this piece of news is ....

raise in interest is a good time to refinance ? u dont even have common sense at all.... the standard disc rate is around -2.2 to -2.5 ... i would rather get locked for 3 yrs to get -2.4 , rather than no lock in period but -1.8 .... apply some common sense pls..nowadays a lot of brainless forumer trolling around .... doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif
