If Loan around RM677K, try ask FA whether can get a better single tier rate... say BR+0.7%. Financing is with MRTA, right ?

Refer to your FA, probably T & C that full flexi is subject to full disbursement of your loan.

For sharing purpose, I applied hlb pbb mbb for 810k loan with 35 years tenure, successfully appeal for better tier, the rate as follow (I applied just week ago)

Hlb 3.65%
No insurance but 70% capping
Full flexi

Pbb 3.65%
Min mrta rm1250
Semi flexi

Mbb 3.75%
Min mrta 1500
Full flexi

Rhb 3.8%
No insurance
Full flexi
*
RM810K with no insurance coverage? Paying for MLTA ?

Full Flexi is only good is you have cash flow to pump into the account, also different Banks their Flexi Package is different. Please verify with FA.

First glance if all being equal, surely we go for cheapest rate. Now, you have to decide whether to take Full Flexi or not.

Yes,no insurance coverage, no MLTA/MRTA. Imo better go for life insurance if you wan to protect yourself. MRTA in the end will have 0 value and MLTA is very expensive

Well just make sure the loan risk is mitigated and covered. No point of buying expensive house and left it to next of kin to settle the debt.

Guys seriously I have a  complicated question on HLB loan, it is about the capping 70% issue.
Let say my loan is 100k, I chose full flexi thus attached with current account. Ok here is the question,

If I have 100k in my current account, meaning that my 70k will help me to save interest but 30k serve no purpose right? My banker called me, he told me the 30k I can pay off principal to reduce my outstanding amount to 70k so i can fully enjoy the savings in interest.

However, I read the terms and conditions in the letter offer, it stated that the 70% capping is applied to the OUTSTANDING BALANCE but not LOAN AMOUNT, isn't that the 70% of the loan become 49k (70% of 70k) ? So the 30% of the outstanding amount is 21k still chargeable for interest. Correct?

Any sifus know the answer for this? Because the banker claimed that I can enjoy 0 interest while I arrange 70k in current account and 30k to pay off principal.

Really a very tricky question as I already asked many times and checked many times. Seriously i also confused
*
As far as I can guess, 70% capping is usually capped on your loan amount.. ie RM100K, max RM70K capped. If you pay off RM20, balance is RM80K so it will be capped at RM56K max. Logic is Bank will want to ensure there is some profit to be made.

Maybe true HLB person can explain it properly or read your Letter Offer T & C.

Need to get some opinion on whether to do refinance or not.
Loan rates is 3.91 with ocbc
Remaining loan are 400k

I browse some current rates and get result of lowest 3.85 / 3.65. Which to my understand would not save much in interest.

Assume that I do not need extra moment for now and that means if refinance that would be balance loan.

ocbc in past few years have / increased somewhat higher  rates compare to other local bank such as PBB/etc

So my dilemma are should I go refinance to local banks such as MBB or PBB??
*
Purpose of refinancing, if to save on interest.. should consider seriously.

If best rate is 3.70% pa, your savings is about 0.21% pa ie RM840 per annum. Legal costs say around 2% for refinancing would be RM8,000 which is payable upfront, hence payback period is 9 years assuming interest savings is RM840 pa (which is not correct as interest would be on outstanding balance and outstanding balance is on reducing scale). So technically, your interest savings will only be 10th year onwards.

Hi Sifu, I would like to find out if there is better full flexi other than HongLeong Mortgage plus. The reason is HongLeong Mortgage plus is only 70% off set, I am looking like 100% off set. Many thanks
*
Thus far, full flexi is mostly 70% capped. No more 100% capped if I am not wrong.

Hi I was offered (Loan amount = ~700K with MRTA included)
- UOB (3.25%, inc. MRTA, Tenure=30y).
- Affin (3.30%(House), Tenure=30y + 3.37%(MRTA), Tenure=10y).

Which one is a better deal a? I calculated the total repayment, Affin is 10K lesser.
*
Impossible that Affin is RM10K lesser if rate is higher.

So you are buying RM700K house and willing to cover with 10 years MRTA ?

Hopefully you have Endowment Policy of RM1.0M to cover for the house.

As for rate, should be able to get 3.22% or lower with RM700K.

After 1 year of being on my Maybank loan it's apparently a semi-flexi account. Do you guys think I can make it into a Flexi account?

Ultimately the only difference I see is that if it's a full flexi account is that I would have another current account that works like a bank account. I would prefer that at least I can just make that my normal bank account and would automatically just save me interest rates on my loan while also showing proof of savings.

With my current semi-flexi loan if i need to pull a bank statement my savings account would have lots of deductions because I pile them all in my loan account.

What do you guys think?

Check with MBB FA and see if they allow to convert package to full flexi.

Hi all,

1. Would like to ask, if all else being equal, which of the following offer is better?
a. BR 2.27% + 0.63% = 2.9%
b. BR 2.5% + 0.4% = 2.9%

2. If OPR normalizes, the BR for both offers will increase accordingly and hence the effective interest rate will likely remain the same?
*
BR is each Banks quoted rate, hence it is not only due to OPR but also Bank’s internal costings too.
