How Mortgage Eligibility is Calculated
Mortgage eligibility is determined based on your income, existing financial obligations,
interest rate, loan tenure and FOIR (Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio).
Banks generally allow 40% to 60% of your total monthly income toward EMI payments.
Key Factors That Affect Home Loan Eligibility
- Gross Monthly Income: Higher income increases eligibility.
- Existing EMIs: Lower existing obligations improve loan approval chances.
- Interest Rate: Lower interest rates increase loan amount.
- Loan Tenure: Longer tenure increases eligible principal.
- FOIR: Determines maximum permissible EMI.
