Currently, which bank is offering the best mortgage interest rate? I plan borrow ~400 to 500 k. What is the %.
*
I would think it depends on your profile. Bank A can offer 3% to Customer A, but 2.8% to Customer B.

Lowest rate for residential property that I know of is 2.8%.

thank you.

Yeah understand if required to pay 10% down payment, definitely need to have that amount of money in bank.

Just that now most project developer selling future price, and with rebate, only need to pay 2% DP.  not sure to say if this is marketing strategy or what, but eventually causes disappointment
*
That's one of the "sweeteners". I've had people telling me "buy new is good, only pay RMxx,xxx or RMx,xxx to get new house".

Would you suggest taking MRTA for property offered by bank that lends the house loan or just standalone? If want to MRTA, do you suggest another third party? Will it be cheaper?

Hope to have your best recommendation..
*
You need to check with the bank. Most will want you to buy from them in order to get better interest rate.

I dont intend to keep the property for long time. As my family grows, I may decide to move to another house and sell this property maybe in 10 years time. Based on this scenario, you still recommend me taking MRTA?

Secondly, usually banks will charge how many more % premium for MRTA? Is it cheaper than doing at other places? What are the pros and cons of buying MRTA from bank (besides maybe lesser borrowing interest rate)?
*
Mrta is charged based on sum insured and tenure. Your loan is 30 years but mrta doesn't need to be 30 years too.

Whether you need mrta or not, it is the same as whether you need med/life/personal accident insurance. Only you will know whether you can afford not to buy.

I have received an offer from both MBB and PB with the same interest rate for the same semi flexy . Maybank is called MaxiHome and PB is called Home Plan.
The installment is just two ringgit different .

Can i know which one would be the advisable choice?
*
Iinm, mbb allows online withdrawal of excess payment with Rm25 fee
Whereas pbb charges rm50, must withdraw at counter and a higher minimum withdrawal amount.

I think you also need to see the mrta insured amount (which one pays more) since difference is just rm2.

Lock in period is 3 years for both?

MRTT cover full sum assured and tenure, premium finance in loan RM32,152
Instalment with MRTT RM2438
Rate - 2.80%

Any opinion on this? First-time homebuyer here. Thank you.

Semi flexi loan?

The interest rate looks like it's the lowest available currently.

If you're comfortable, you could try asking to reduce the mrta - either reduce amount insured or tenure (don't insure for 35 years) if you foresee your next of kin can afford to pay if you die/tpd or you intend to sell in future. Of course it's about taking the risk.

Yeah semi flexi loan. I'm not sure whether to take MRTT 35 years or MLTT 30 years. Both covers 620k.

If I pay off my property earlier (eg by 30th year), maybe the 30 years MLTT insurance is better? And it covers fixed amount..
*
Mltt would be more expensive in premium. Whether it's worth it or not depends on your risk appetite.

Hi. First time home buyer here. Is it ok to knock all bankers door to find best rate or will that not look good for my ccris?
*
You can approach as many as you want, find out in details the terms n conditions of each offer. The more you discuss the more you will learn.

Then apply from those banks that you feel most comfortable with. I don't think there's any harm applying from 3 banks.

for 20 years + 4 construction,  premium is RM9,679

which mrtt options to choose?

The interest macam a bit high. Did you appeal for lower?

Mrtt depends on your risk appetite and whether you or your next of kin can afford to continue servicing the loan if you die or kena tpd. I don't think anyone but yourself can know which one is most suitable.

Depends on your profile, I guess. But I know lowest achievable interest rate is 2.80% - a month or two ago.

In this case, you are at their mercy as they can see your loan application status in ccris report. No choice but to take it if you must buy that property.

How many loan applications did you submit?

Since she's been working there for a while, she should know this policy, but why doesn't she tell me earlier?
Whenever I ask, she keeps saying "I don't know.".

The reason I was worried is that other banks check my ECCRIS, and I have already had two PBB loans (she said the first can't key in data anymore hence need to create a new one), yet I still submitted them and all of them rejected my loan.

You can try to email her to request her to remove from ccris. CC the email to bnm telelink (pls search for the full email address).

I recevied two offers,

HLB Flexi
2.88 + 0.17 = 3.05
70% cap for interest savings

RHB Flexi
2.7 + 0.3 = 3.05
No cap for interest savings

Should i also consider the spread? Cause notice HLB & RHB used to be about the same back in 2015, HLB BR = 3.99 & RHB = 4.00, over the time now HLB BR = 2.88 & RHB 2.7, the BR gap from 0.01 became 0.18 now. Potentially RHB BR go up higher one day? Then spread will be playing a significant role by then.

The other concern is I read thru many discussion  in lowyat and I saw many mentioned that the RHB flexi is not that 'Flexi', but most of the discussion got quite a bit of age now,  or over the time it became better now? any sifu can give some advice?

Hlb afaik caps interest offset at 70% of principle.

What do you mean by rhb not so flexible?

Guys, I got a question. Let's say I got 100k, house property 700k, semi flexi.

Option 1:
Take 100% loan, then put in 100k to principle, to reduce interest.

Option 2:
Put in 100k, then take 600k loan.

Will both be the same repayment? Or which 1 better? I don't want to pay so much interest for bank.
*
Repayment depends on how much you borrow and tenure.
In option 1, dumping 100k in will not reduce your monthly payment. It just shortens the tenure.

Disadvantages of taking higher loan, but dumping 100k to offset later:
You probably will be required to take higher mrta coverage
Your legal fees and disbursements will be higher
Your monthly installment is higher (cashflow ok?)
Your DSR is affected

To save interest, you could opt for option 2 and reduce tenure if you can afford higher installments.
Of course if you have investment returns that are higher than loan interest, and you can afford higher monthly installment, Option 1 is good.

question on HLB
https://www.hlb.com.my/content/dam/hlb/my/d...re-sheet-en.pdf

Interest is calculated on the Eligible
Outstanding Balance, which is the difference between the loan
outstanding balance (inclusive of charges) (“Outstanding Balance”)
and the Advance Payment or up to 30% of the Outstanding
Balance, whichever is lower.

means extra money pump in only can save up to 30% of the intereset?
*
This should be the semi flexi loan.

Say you have 100k outstanding balance. You can only offset up to 30k. Meaning, if you pump say 35k, your 5k will not be doing anything to offset the interest.

Does HLB semi-flexi still allow for just 30% offset on remaining loan principle? If you intend to pay in advance to lower your interest amount, you may want to check this out.

For semi flexi, HLB from my experience, only allows you to offset interest (by paying extra) up to 30% of remaining loan balance. If you're thinking of parking a lot of money to offset interest, this is something to consider.

For HLB's full flexi, the interest saving on advance payment is capped at 70% of the outstanding balance.

That's for full flexi.

For comparison, most banks allow offset up to 100% for semi-flexi.

Hi all, appreciate any info. Is it more worth to get a 1mil life insurance or mrta ? I've been offered around 36k mrta for a loan amount of 750k
*
I posed this question of life insurance vs mrta to a bank officer. He told me that bank values MRTA more than our own life policies because when we kaput, with MRTA the bank will get priority when it comes to payout. With life policies, the beneficiaries are the one being paid and it doesn't guarantee they will want to pay the bank and bank will have to proceed with foreclosure which is costly to bank.
