Before applying home loan check your EMI with our EMI calculator. Here, we'll go over a brief, step-by-step description of the home loans procedure.

What Can You Do with Home Loan?

It is a form of loan that a bank or financial institution offers to individuals so they can purchase house and Land, renovate or extent existing house, construct a new house, etc. 

Who Can Get Home Loan in Nepal?

Working people and corporate houses (businesses) can apply for a home loan in Nepal and they have to meet certain standards in order to be granted a loan, and if they are unable to repay it, the bank may seize the property used the loan for.

What do banks consider when granting a home loan?

Lenders take into account the following variables after determining your eligibility to apply for a house loan based on repayment capacity:

  • Income level of the applicant
  • Age  of the applicant
  • Qualification (stability and occupation continuity)
  • Resident status (maximum limit for an Nepali resident differs from that of a non-resident)
  • Spouse’s income (household income is taken into account when there is a co-applicant)
  • No. of dependents (it is a measure of repayment capacity)
  • Credit history and score (past repayment track record)
  • Status of existing loans

  • A building completion certificate from Municipality/VDC if you want to purchase a house.
  • Salary people should present documents such as salary letters, audits, etc.
  • Companies should show their company registration certificate along with PAN. Also, their recent financial performances will be analyzed. They also need to show a plan of what they wish to do after purchasing the real estate.

What is the process of home loans in Nepal?

After the selection of property, choose the bank which you feel is good (analyzing its interest rates).

The next step is to tell the bank about your requirements.

The bank you selected will send a property evaluator to your location (where the property is located) to do a proper study regarding your land or home’s current price and its expected growth rate.

Next, you need to pay some amount upfront, the money depends on the amount of loan that you have applied for.

Also, the bank will make sure that you use those amounts to invest/buy real estate.

If all thing goes right, you will be able to receive that loan and you will need to pay EMI on time afterward.

What Is Tenure for Home Loan in Nepal?

In Nepal, the tenure of a home loan ranges from 15 to 50 years. Most banks offer a 15–20 year term. However, there are banks that offer 50-year loans (i.e. NIC Asia). You should select the time frame that works best for you, but keep in mind that a longer period of time will need you to pay the bank more interest.
