Frequently Asked Questions
All
The maximum loan amount you can receive is determined by the Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio, which is based on the value of your property. The RBI has set LTV ratio caps for different loan amount slabs to promote responsible lending.
The RBI regulates interest rates for LAPs by setting benchmark rates. Lenders use these benchmark rates as a reference to determine their own interest rates, promoting uniformity across the market.
Eligibility criteria for LAPs include a minimum income threshold, a good credit score, suitable property as collateral, and the purpose for which the loan is intended. Lenders may have additional criteria based on property type or borrower profile.
Risk-based pricing allows lenders to offer differential interest rates based on the borrower's risk profile, credit score, and repayment capacity. This was introduced by the RBI in 2022 to promote fair lending practices.
The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act (RERA) has boosted transparency in the real estate sector, indirectly impacting the LAP market. The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) aims to streamline the resolution process for non-performing assets (NPAs) in the banking sector, which includes LAPs.
