Home Loan Documentation

 

Owning a home is probably one of the most precious and cherished dreams of any person; especially when he/she has to earn his/her living from a fixed quantum of salary. For that you basically have two options-either save/invest in a planned way, or take a home loan. Numerous Banks nowadays have tailor-made packages to serve you, with lots of promises to disburse your loan. The only precondition is your home loan documentation should be ok. After all the credit appraisal officer is also a salaried person! He has to document the papers in a proper way so that if tomorrow you fail to pay the money, he has got enough piles of paper to save his back! Jokes apart, home loan documentation is the first & foremost hurdle for a salaried individual in the way of getting a Home Loan.
