Beware that if you are unable to repay, you could lose your home

Loan Against Property (LAP) can be taken against a property you own – residential or commercial.

You can get a loan of up to 65 per cent of the value of your property, for a maximum tenure of 15 years.

Both self-employed and salaried employees can avail of it. There should be no existing loan against the property.

You can take the full loan amount as a lump sum and repay it as an EMI, or take it as an overdraft account.

LAP is a secured loan. Its interest rate is lower than on a secured loan, such as a personal loan.

Take LAP to fund significant planned expenses, like sending the child to study abroad or a wedding.
