QUOTE(earthkid @ Jan 27 2015, 12:07 PM) Hi all, I have a question about home loan to ask. Let's say I currently have 2 properties now, one that doesnt require me to pay any loan, another one is serving a 80% loan from the bank, was wondering could I still be entitled to take a 90% loan from the bank for my 3rd property? Because I remembering some hearsay that I could only loan 70% of my house's value for the 3rd property. Hope to get some advice from the sifu-sifus around here, thanks! You still can borrow up to 90% as the 70% cap rule applies to properties with loan outstanding. Since of your existing 2 properties, one is without loan, if you apply a mortgage loan now, this will be counted as 2nd property loans.

QUOTE(cfa28 @ Feb 18 2015, 11:12 AM) IMHO, you are overstretching your monthly commitments What is your take home pay - less EPF, Tax, etc If you take a 90% loan of RM1.5 mln = RM1.35 mln @ 4.5% for 35-years = RM6,400 per month. + RM1.7K for car loan + RM2K in joint expenses = RM10,100 which is already almost your Gross Pay Also, you need some savings righ for emergency / one-off expenses / year end expenses This is something you can afford to buy but CANNOT afford to maintain. Was in the same shoes - saw a Semi D that I really loved but after crunching the numbers - cannot afford to live Agreed. I'm not optimistic that the financiers will approve the loan.

QUOTE(WallChecker @ Feb 22 2015, 12:18 AM) Hi All, I am in the midst of considering which bank loan package at the moment for my first house. I have applied for many banks (Not all of them) via contact from my agent so far, three replied but not much detail I got here cause I wasn't sure what is the correct questions/checklist when looking at the loan package. Three more banks pending due to their internal arrangement. Anyone kind to guide me where or what to check in mortgage offer letter? Such as MRTA (Some included some are not), Flexi / Semi-flexi. I understand about the BR and Spread terminology, but not different kind of packages. Thanks. Some basic stuff eg tenure, loan rate, margin of finance, lock in period, any incidental charges (be it one-off or recurring), penalty for early settlement, how flexible is the withdrawal of excess funds through internet/over the counter/cheque for the flexi loan, and any additional specific condition.

QUOTE(WallChecker @ Feb 25 2015, 10:58 PM) Hi All, Seeking some expert advice here as I got offered from few banks so far:- Bank A: 3.65 + 0.90 = 4.45 (MOF: 90%, Tenure: 35 Years) + Sum $ MRTA Bank B: 3.99 + 0.41 = 4.40 (MOF: 90%, Tenure: 35 Years) *No MRTA included Bank C: 4.02 + 0.43 = 4.45 (MOF: 90%+5%, Tenure: 35 Years) + Sum $ MRTA I am still waiting for another two banks but it seems that they may take quite long time to get back to me. Thanks. Edit: Thanks Jasoncat on your earlier advise. No prob bro. Based on the available info, I may choose Bank B - for obvious reason, i.e. slightly better rate and no MRTA requirement. If you think an insurance protection is necessary, you may negotiate further with Bank B for a better pricing by taking its MRTA. Of course when talk about insurance there are options other than MRTA...

QUOTE(ims2628 @ Feb 27 2015, 11:35 AM) The calculation to calculate your commitment is called DSR(Debt Service Ratio). First of all u need to know your income: Income Basic pay : RM2500 Fixed Allowance : RM500 Total : RM3000 Commitment Car : RM400 House : RM600 Credit Card : RM100 Personel Loan/ASB : RM100 New House : RM900 Total : RM2100 SUM: RM2100 / RM3000 = 70% As above illustration the DSR is 70% meaning that u can get the loan. if your DSR is above 70% i.e 70.01% u are mostly unable to get the loan, but certain bank accept dsr till 75%. I would like to add on... the DSR computation shall be based on net pay, i.e. after the statutory deductions for EPF, tax, socso. DSR can be even higher than 75% but that's for high income or high networth group.

QUOTE(reehdus @ Feb 27 2015, 01:06 PM) Credit card in this figure means monthly credit card expenditure? Or outstanding credit card loan? I.e. does the DSR computation take into account monthly expenditure like rent, groceries etc? Sorry if this question sounds really noob...haha In general, 5% on the credit card outstanding / min. payment is used upon the DSR calc. Other monthly expenditures are usually excluded.

QUOTE(aromachong @ Feb 28 2015, 03:33 PM) higher income means rm10k+ per month? some banks calculate based on gross pay. eg : Citibank . One example again is Aeon/RHB - they accept DSR more than 75% if your salary hits between 10-20k per month Based on the Responsible Financing guideline by BNM, rrightfully the bank shall use net income to calculate the DSR. I'm not sure whether all the banks comply with that but they are supposed to as this is compliance issue. I trust that if the bank remains to use gross pay for DSR computation, it may tighten the threshold for loan entitlement - if not I wonder how they are going to answer the regulator when being questionned.

QUOTE(cashflow5357 @ Mar 17 2015, 10:36 PM) what is the procedure to do early settlement of housing loan? pay up all outstanding amount to bank or go thru lawyer and get them to setttle? You need to ask for redemption statement from the bank to ascertain the outstanding sum to be repaid. You may need a lawyer too to get the necessary documention done, e.g. discharge of charge (eg property tsken as collateral).

QUOTE(cashflow5357 @ Mar 18 2015, 09:57 PM) so in the end still need a lawyer to do a discharge? redemption from bank alone is not enough in this case It depends. If your loan is secured against property, then a lawyer is needed to discharge the charge. If your loan is unsecured or says secured by other security (eg cash), then no need to engage lawyer.

QUOTE(hoimangkuk @ Mar 23 2015, 11:41 AM) Hi all, Is it possible to use previous employment pay slip to be use when applying for loan? Because I only started my current job early of this month... so need to wait for for another 3 month for the slip... Or is the any other suggestion? TQ You also need to show your letter of offer of your current employer stating the key terms ie the salary, position etc. The bank will need to assess your new job stability. Good luck.

QUOTE(redfly @ Mar 30 2015, 11:17 PM) Hi, Would like to get some opinion on choosing which bank homeloan. If BR % + spread % = Effective homeloan %, eg. A Bank = 4% + 0.5% = 4.5% B Bank = 3.8% + 0.7% = 4.5% I understand that BR% may fluctuate, but spread% is fixed throughout the lifetime of loan. If A and B bank all have same Effective home, which should you choose given that both effective rates are the same? Thanks in advance... In this instance, no difference whether choose bank A or B.

QUOTE(cfa28 @ Mar 31 2015, 12:58 PM) Although PTPTN may not appear in the CCRIS, its important for the Borrower to take it into consideration. If your net cashflow is only say 800 after deducting PTPTN of 200, then the Max monthly repayment you can afford is only 800 and not 1000 Agreed. Getting the loan approved is one thing but whether one's actual repayment capacity can take up the new loan is another thing.

QUOTE(hondaracer @ Apr 3 2015, 06:23 PM) I tried recently both PBB and alliance, only alliance willing to appeal for 4.40. PBB said best rate is 4.45. This cannot be generalized that other banks do not entertain appeal case.

QUOTE(hondaracer @ Apr 4 2015, 07:54 AM) I called up more than 10 banks, including harimau & 2 foreign bank, for loan amt RM 500k for subsale leasehold condo: only 4 said can-do and 1 said can appeal for 4.4 for loan above 500k (all 4 said can appeal if loan abt 1 mil - no commit on rate), rest said "no appeal, best rate.". Reason given by no-do banks: property is leasehold more than 10 years without strata title. I learned something after 3rd no-do bank said that. Not generalizing but real situation above; so what is the criteria for successful appeal? What is the criteria for giving lowest/best rate? Oh yes, lastly, the rest of can-do bank said they are willing to appeal to match if can see offer letter. Noted your situation. Whether a bank allows appeal or not depends on a lot of factors, eg whether can compensate the lower rate with other additional income (eg MRTA), whether it is a valued customer, how competitive the market is, how aggressive the bank is etc.
