Unlocking the Value of Your Home: Understanding Top-Up Loans for Existing Home Loan Customers

Top-up loans are an additional lending facility that can be offered to existing home loan customers using their mortgaged property as collateral. As real estate values typically appreciate over the long term, the market value of the residential property usually rises in most locations in the short term and all locations in the long term. Concurrently, regular repayment of the home loan brings down the outstanding loan amount. This results in an increase in the home loan customer's stake in the property, creating an opportunity for banks to unlock the value by providing additional loans against it.

Many borrowers opt to obtain loans from various sources for purposes such as education, medical expenses, or personal uses, often at higher interest rates. However, given the option, they would prefer to obtain a loan against the equity of their homes at much lower interest rates.

Below are the key features of the Home Top-Up Loan Scheme:

Funds from the Home Top-Up Loan Scheme can be used for personal purposes, such as education, marriage, healthcare, or home repairs, without any documentary evidence required. However, the customer must provide a certificate in the application stating that the funds will not be used for speculative purposes.

  • Banks can offer Top-Up Loans in the form of Term Loans or Overdrafts, both of which come with reducing drawing power.
  • Home loan takeovers, along with Top-Up Loans, are allowed when the borrower has taken possession of the residential property and a valid mortgage has been established in favor of the current lender.
  • Under the Home Top-Up Loan Scheme, no more than two loans are permitted to exist at any given time.
  • Paper checks available (no charge or discounted depending on check style)
  • Maintain a combined balance of $10,000 in eligible linked accounts Learn about combined balances
