Hi /k based on my previous topic regarding my housing loan, i have two offer concurrently  rclxub.gif

Basic Term Loan
Rate: 3.4% | Monthly: RM980
The amount remain for 35 years and have to pay lawyer fees on my own.

Semi Flexi Loan
Rate: to be confirm | Monthly: RM955
The amount fluctuate based on BLR and lawyer fees include in the loan.

Based on your experience for Semi Flexi Loan, is it possible for the monthly commitment increase up to 1.2K monthly.
Your comment and suggestion is highly appreciated  notworthy.gif

what's the main different anyway? fully flexi vs semi flexi
*
what banker told me is

Full Flexi
- can withdraw money from Loan Account anytime without charge
- no withdraw limit
- one time charge per year

Semi Flexi
- charge RM50 per withdrawal from Loan Account (think this is HLB, but the amount varies according to bank, but all bank charge per withdrawal)

ambank/affin/hlb/pbb

all also got full flexi and semi flexi, but dont have Basic Term Loan

cause i dont need Full Flexi? buta kena charge one time per year for the money i dont need to withdraw from Loan Account

Full Flexi is target to business ppl, not for makan gaji ppl

Was it RM10/mth for the current account tied to the full flexi loan account? I think it's well worth it if we truly utilize the flexibility and repay more (and save lots of interest than mere RM10/mth).

depends on bank actually...
i only knows about HLB cause i take Loan from HLB
and they charge yearly
