A Guide on All You Need To Know About Top-Up Loans

March 13, 2023
No Tags Assigned to this Post

Considering buying a property and you have been in touch with real estate developers in Mumbai but your existing loan is becoming a hiccup? How about considering a top-up loan? A top-up loan is a credit that is taken on top of another debt that already exists. The current loan could be a housing loan, personal loan, a mortgage, or any other kind of loan. Your chances of receiving a top-up loan are improved if you are making timely payments for your existing loan.

Lenders often provide this add-on service to their current set of clients.

When Is a Top-Up Loan Needed?

  • You have an existing home loan but need more funding. To ask for additional funding, you need to complete a predetermined number of EMI payments on your existing loan.
  • You want to be able to satisfy your financial needs without having to deal with new paperwork’s hassles.
  • When you need money right away for whatever reason— be it for buying a new house or for other personal or professional reasons.
  • Top-up loans are also popular when a person wants to consolidate their debt rather than keep track of multiple loans.

What Do You Need for a Top-Up Loan?

This differs from one lender to the other. Here’s what you need to keep in mind:

  • You must be repaying an existing home loan from the lender you are contacting for a top-up loan. If the vendor does not provide a top-up loan option, you must first transfer your loan to a bank or other housing finance institution that does and then apply for the top-up loan option.
  • Lender will review your repayment history before granting your request for a top-up loan. To ensure that you are financially sound, they will check your credit history and CIBIL scores.

What Advantages Do Top-Up Loans Offer?

  • Immediate disbursal

    The process may be quicker if you already have a home loan with the bank or financial institution. The amount is disbursed immediately post verification. These loans are to go for especially when there is an emergency.

  • Less documents needed

    Depending on the lender, the documents may change. Since the process was completed during the initial loan’s disbursement, some people may not need any paperwork in order to obtain a top-up loan. For loan processing, other lenders may, however, only need you to provide a few papers.

  • Rates of interest or fees

    Top-up loans generally have lower processing fees or interest rates than new loans.

  • Loan Terms

    The period of the top-up loan may not exceed the term of the initial loan. You can choose a tenure that is shorter or the same duration as your current one as a result.

  • No security is required

    A top-up personal loan is an unsecured sort of loan, thus you are not required to pledge any security or property.

  • Integrated EMIs

    Certain banks or financial institutions may allow you to combine your EMIs. This means that the principal loan and the amount of the top-up loan can be combined into a single EMI. You can better manage your payments because you won’t have to keep track of different payment dates.

  • No limitations on use

    The amount of the top-up loan can be used for anything, including a wedding, vacation, business expansion, or even to buy the 3 BHK flat in Bangalore or another city that you have been dreaming about!

Which Loan Should I Choose: Top-Up Loan or New Loan?

There are certain differences between the two, even though they both have the same objective and no limitations on how you can utilize the amount.

  • How can one apply for the loan?

    Upload or send the necessary documents in order to apply for a quick home or personal loan. The lender will confirm your eligibility based on the documentation provided by you and then depending on your credit worthiness, your loan will be disbursed.

    Since you already have an existing loan with the lender, the verification and disbursal process is considerably quicker.

  • Interest rate and other fees

    The rate of interest is noticeably greater for a new loan. It differs depending on the borrower and lender. An individual with a bad credit score might be offered a loan at a higher interest rate than an individual with a good credit score.

    Given that the borrower already has a relationship with the lender, top-up loans may have interest rates that are lower than those of the current housing loans. Additionally, when comparing top-up loans to a new loan, the majority of lenders provide lower processing fees.

  • Paperwork required

    A top-up loan requires significantly less documentation than a brand-new loan does. A fresh loan application is also subject to more scrutiny.

  • Indemnification or security

    Both loan types do not need you to provide any security or collateral because they are unsecured forms of debt. However, in the event of a new loan, the lender may request the applicant to submit collateral or a guarantor if they are unsure of their financial stability.

    A fresh home loan and a top-up loan are both appropriate to make your dream of buying your own abode come true. People prefer a top up loan when they need quick cash since they have no usage restrictions. Even though these loans are readily available and require no documentation, one must grasp their purpose and make appropriate use of them.

    Make sure you have the resources to pay back your debts on schedule and that your savings are increasing steadily. By doing this, you can have it all and maintain control over your financial situation. So with the appropriate financial arrangements in place, check out the L&T Realty’s flats in Ghatkopar and other locations where you can make some profitable investments. Get in touch with us now!
