Personal loan or loan against Property

Friday,23rd November 2007

Personal loans are often referred to as all-purpose loans. They come in handy for sudden expenses for which you may not have ready cash.

If you can spend a little more time in processing and documentation, a cheaper loan than personal loan is a loan against property (LAP). LAP is a personal loan given by mortgaging your house property. The loan is given as a certain percentage of the property's market value, usually around 40%-60%. LAP interest rates are cheaper by 3% to 4% compared to personal loan rates.
