Hi, sorry im not sure if this is right place to ask.
I am on a semi-flexi conv laon of 500k and now bank has released 150k to the developer. so i would like to ask,
1) if i now transfer 100k from my saving to my loan account, does that mean i will only pay the interest of 50k moving forward ?
2) i can still withdraw the money from my loan account to my saving account right? need to call bank?
3) when can i start pay/deduct to the loan principal amount? need to wait the bank to release all 500k first?
4) will the 100k from no.1 automatically deduct to principal amount? or i need to instruct bank to do so?
many thanks.
1. Yes correct
2.You need to check if you're allowed to withdraw the prepayment during the construction period, if no restriction then you're able to withdraw it, if you have m2u, you can directly transfer the money back to your own savings account.
3. you can start paying now in full or just on the progressive interest alone, you'll save more money in the long term if you start paying the full amount rather than waiting until the money is fully released
4. you'll need to inform the bank if you're doing through the counter whether it's for advance prepayment or for installment purpose. You can directly deposit also via m2u as well without having to inform the bank. The amount will be treated as advancement prepayment.
