Over many years, Indians have immigrated to various countries and have spread our history, culture, sense of patriotism and culinary delights among the original inhabitants of those countries. Though many Indians have made a foreign country as their home, the emotion of belongingness towards India resides in every NRI. An NRI Home Loan fulfills the dream and passion of an NRI to own a home in India. Many Banks offer tailor made Home Loan schemes for NRIs at exclusive interest rates, terms & conditions and there are quite a few things an NRI must consider while taking an NRI Home Loan.
WHO IS NRI?
Under the Foreign Exchange Management Act 1999, NRI’s include the following:
Finance is available for construction, purchase and renovation of a house.
Yes. Foreclosure of Home Loans is allowed before the expiry of the original loan tenure. Banks do not charge a penalty for floating rate home loans.
Most Banks offer NRIs, the liberty of switching between fixed interest rates and floating interest rates.
Banks understand the need of an NRI to have a pleasant home buying experience. By offering NRI home loans with a convenient loan process and documentation that is not cumbersome, many Banks and lending institutions fulfill the dreams of NRIs to own a home in India and bond with their near and dear, back home.
