Difference Between Home Loan And Loan Against Property

Difference Between Home Loan And Loan Against Property

We received a call today. It was a loan inquiry. The enquirer wanted to know on the loan he can get on his property, his eligibility, time process, fees and importantly the rate of interest, in precise. Our executive before explaining re-confirmed “Is it loan against property that you want to know?” The enquirer exclaimed yes. The executive explained to him in detail about the product and assured him of our best services. “Ok. Will let you know in 2-3 days”, said the enquirer and the call ends. Later on 3rd day our executive follow-ups with the client, to learn that he has already made his choice to approach Bank A and have already submitted the documents for loan processing. On confirming the enquirer said that he found the rates were too high for him to apply with us. On the contrary, the executive explained, “Sir, rather the rates that we are providing is the lowest for mortgage loan”. 

“Mortgage Loan!! No No. I am looking for home loan”, says the enquirer and disconnects the call. The executive gets no time to explain the confusion and the conversation ends there forever. This made one thing clear for the executive, that he learned to reconfirm with every enquirer, “Is it loan against property i.e. mortgage loan or home loan that you are looking for”.

Off the late, it is observed that many often use, home loans and loans against property as interchangeably. But in actually both are not the same, though in both we get the loan on the property. They are rather two different kinds of loans, even though both being secured loans. On the other hand loan against property and mortgage being the same can be used interchangeably.
