INTRODUCTION
A bank is a financial institution that accepts deposits from the public and creates credit.
Lending activities can be performed either directly or indirectly through capital markets.
Due to their importance in the financial stability of a country, banks are regulated in
most countries. Most nations have institutionalized a system known as fractional reserve
banking under which banks hold liquid assets equal to only a portion of their current
liabilities. In addition to other regulations intended to ensure liquidity, banks are
generally subject to minimum capital requirements based on an international set of capital
standards, known as the Basel Accords.
Banking in its modern sense evolved in the 14th century in the prosperous cities
of Renaissance Italy but in many ways was a continuation of ideas and concepts
of credit and lending that had their roots in the ancient world. In the history of banking, a
number of banking dynasties – notably, the Medicis, the Fuggers, the Welsers,
the Berenbergs and the Rothschilds – have played a central role over many centuries.
The oldest existing retail bank is Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena, while the oldest
existing merch ant bankis Berenberg Bank.
Banking in India is mainly governed by the BANKING REGULATION ACT, 1949 and
the RESERVE BANK OF INDIA ACT, 1934. The RBI ant the Government of India
exercise control over banks from opening of bank to their winding up by virtue of the
powers conferred under these statues. The RBI is responsible for licensing of bank.

data collection will base on personal interview. I have prepared the questionnaire according to the
necessity of the data to be collected.
4 LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY:-
This study also includes some limitations which have been discussed as follows:
i) The sample size of 100 customers and 4 banks might prove a limitation because of difficulty
in generalization of results.
ii) To collect the data from various banks was quite difficult due to non- cooperation of some
banks. This proved to be major limitation of the study.
iii) To access such a large number of customers was difficult because of non-cooperative attitude
of respondents.
iv) Lack of data was also the other limitation of the study as some of banks do not have proper
data on topic.
v) There was limitation of time to conduct such a big survey in limited available time.
vi) Ignorance and reluctant attitude of customers was also a major limitation in this study.
Thus above all were the limitations in this research study. The maximum efforts were made to
overcome these limitations in the study.
5. OVERVIEW OF STUDY
MORTGAGE LOAN
For the vast majority of people, it’s impossible to buy a home without a mortgage.
Getting hundreds of thousands of pounds together to put down as one lump sum is a
privilege reserved for very few.
As it stands, it’s as much as most homebuyers can do to scrape together a deposit. The
rest has to be borrowed from a bank or building society. Fortunately, there are hundreds
of lenders offering a whole range of different types of mortgages. Whether you are
buying your first home, remortgaging or moving up the property ladder, there should be a
home loan suitable for you.
Most mortgages are now only offered on a repayment basis which means you repay part
of the capital and the interest every month. At the end of the term, which is usually
between 25 and 30 years, your mortgage debt will have been totally repaid.
Some lenders allow you to take out an interest-only mortgage which means that your
monthly payments only cover the interest. You therefore need to have a plan in place so
that you can afford to repay the amount you initially borrowed in full, at the end of the
term.
Many major lenders have withdrawn from the interest-only market, while others have
tightened their criteria making them harder to get because of concerns that thousands of
people have interest-only mortgages with no means of repaying them.
Opting for interest-only might seem attractive because your monthly repayments will be
lower than with a repayment mortgage, but unless you have a solid plan to pay back the
capital it’s best to go for a repayment loan.
A mortgage loan, also referred to as simply a mortgage, is used either by purchasers
of real property to raise funds to buy real estate; or alternatively by existing property
owners to raise funds for any purpose, while putting a lien on the property being
mortgaged. The loan is "secured" on the borrower's property through a process known
as mortgage origination. This means that a legal mechanism is put in place which allows
the lender to take possession and sell the secured property ("foreclosure" or
"repossession") to pay off the loan in the event that the borrower defaults on the loan or
otherwise fails to abide by its terms. The word mortgage is derived from a "Law French"
term used by English lawyers in the middle Ages meaning "death pledge", and refers to
the pledge ending (dying) when either the obligation is fulfilled or the property is taken
through foreclosure. Mortgage can also be described as "a borrower giving consideration
in the form of collateral for a benefit (loan)."
Traditionally, when people take out their first mortgage, they’ve tended to opt for
a 25 year term. However, there are no rules about this and as we are living longer
and the retirement age is going up, 30-year mortgages are becoming more
common. This can help bring your monthly payments down, but on the flip side
you’ll be saddled with the debt for longer.

A. INTRODUCTION
The definition of a bank varies from country to country. See the relevant country pages
under for more information.
Under English common law, a banker is defined as a person who carries on the business
of banking by conducting current accounts for his customers, paying cheques drawn on
him/her and collecting cheques for his/her customers.
In most common law jurisdictions there is a Bills of Exchange Act that codifies the law in
relation to negotiable instruments, including cheques, and this Act contains a statutory
definition of the term banker: banker includes a body of persons, whether incorporated or
not, who carry on the business of banking' (Section 2, Interpretation). Although this
definition seems circular, it is actually functional, because it ensures that the legal basis
for bank transactions such as cheques does not depend on how the bank is structured or
regulated.
The business of banking is in many English common law countries not defined by statute
but by common law, the definition above. In other English common law jurisdictions
there are statutory definitions of the business of banking or banking business. When
looking at these definitions it is important to keep in mind that they are defining the
business of banking for the purposes of the legislation, and not necessarily in general. In
particular, most of the definitions are from legislation that has the purpose of regulating
and supervising banks rather than regulating the actual business of banking. However, in
many cases the statutory definition closely mirrors the common law one. Examples of
statutory definitions:
Since the advent of EFTPOS (Electronic Funds Transfer at Point Of Sale), direct
credit, direct debit and internet banking, the cheque has lost its primacy in most banking
systems as a payment instrument. This has led legal theorists to suggest that the cheque
based definition should be broadened to include financial institutions that conduct current
accounts for customers and enable customers to pay and be paid by third parties, even if
they do not pay and collect cheques.
Banks act as payment agents by conducting checking or current accounts for customers,
paying cheques drawn by customers in the bank, and collecting cheques deposited to
customers' current accounts. Banks also enable customer payments via other payment
methods such as Automated Clearing House (ACH), Wire transfers or telegraphic
transfer, EFTPOS, and automated teller machines (ATMs).
Banks can create new money when they make a loan. New loans throughout the banking
system generate new deposits elsewhere in the system. The money supply is usually
increased by the act of lending, and reduced when loans are repaid faster than new ones
are generated. In the United Kingdom between 1997 and 2007, there was an increase in
the money supply, largely caused by much more bank lending, which served to push up
property prices and increase private debt. The amount of money in the economy as
measured by M4 in the UK went from £750 billion to £1700 billion between 1997 and
2007, much of the increase caused by bank lending. If all the banks increase their lending
together, then they can expect new deposits to return to them and the amount of money in
the economy will increase. Excessive or risky lending can cause borrowers to default, the
banks then become more cautious, so there is less lending and therefore less money so
that the economy can go from boom to bust as happened in the UK and many other
Western economies after 2007.
Range of activities
Channels
An American bank in Maryland.
Banks offer many different channels to access their banking and other services:
Bank by mail: Most banks accept cheque deposits via mail and use mail to
communicate to their customers
Relationship manager, mostly for private banking or business banking, who visits
customers at their homes or businesses
Direct Selling Agent, who works for the bank based on a contract, whose main job
is to increase the customer base for the bank
MEANING
The BANKING COMPANIES ACT 1949 of INDIA defines Bank as, “A BANK IS A
FINANCIAL INSTITUTION WHICH ACCEPTS MONEY FROM THE PUBLIC FOR
THE OF LENDING OR INVESTMENT REPAYABLE ON DEMAND OR
OTHERWISE WITHDRAWABLE BY CHEQUES, DRAFTS OR ORDERS OR
OTHERWISE.”
You may think mortgages have been around for hundreds of years -- after all, how could
anyone ever afford to pay for a house outright? It was only in the 1930s, however, that
mortgages actually got their start. It may surprise you to learn that banks didn't forge
ahead with this new idea; insurance companies did. These daring insurance companies
did this not in the interest of making money through fees and interest charges, but in the
hopes of gaining ownership of properties if borrowers failed to keep up with the
payments.
It wasn't until 1934 that modern mortgages came into being. The Federal Housing
Administration (FHA) played a critical role. In order to help pull the country out of the
Great Depression, the FHA initiated a new type of mortgage aimed at the folks who
couldn't get mortgages under the existing programs. At that time, only four in 10
households owned homes. Mortgage loan terms were limited to 50 percent of the
property's market value, and the repayment schedule was spread over three to five years
and ended with a balloon payment. An 80 percent loan at that time meant your down
payment was 80 percent -- not the amount you financed! With loan terms like that, it's no
wonder that most Americans were renters
FHA started a program that lowered the down payment requirements. They set up
programs that offered 80 percent loan-to-value (LTV), 90 percent LTV, and higher. This
forced commercial banks and lenders to do the same, creating many more opportunities
for average Americans to own homes.
The FHA also started the trend of qualifying people for loans based on their actual ability
to pay back the loan, rather than the traditional way of simply "knowing someone." The
FHA lengthened the loan terms. Rather than the traditional five- to seven-year loans, the
FHA offered 15-year loans and eventually stretched that out to the 30-year loans we have
today.
Another area that the FHA got involved in was the quality of home construction. Rather
than simply financing any home, the FHA set quality standards that homes had to meet in
order to qualify for the loan. That was a smart move; they wouldn't want the loan
outlasting the building! This started another trend that commercial lenders eventually
followed.
Before FHA, traditional mortgages were interest-only payments that ended with a balloon
payment that amounted to the entire principal of the loan. That was one reason why
foreclosures were so common. FHA established the amortization of loans, which meant
that people got to pay an incremental amount of the loan's principal amount with each
interest payment, reducing the loan gradually over the loan term until it was completely
paid off.
On the next page, we'll break down the components of the modern monthly loan payment
and explain the important concept of amortization.
It’s worth going for the shortest term you can afford – not only will you be
mortgage-free sooner but you’ll also save yourself thousands of pounds in
interest. And don’t forget, when you remortgage and switch to a new product, you
shouldn’t opt for another 25 or 30 year term.
C. FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Banks and NBFCs often offer customized loan as per the needs of
the borrower.
If by any chance the borrower fails to pay off the mortgage loan, the
lender has the right to repossess the mortgaged property.
After the repayment of the loan, the borrower becomes the sole
owner of the mortgaged property.
The borrower can pay off the mortgage loan by EMI i.e. Equated
Monthly Installment.
Banks and NBFCs offer fixed as well as floating interest rate for
mortgage loans.
The funds a borrower gets from the mortgage loan can be used for
personal as well as business needs.
BENEFITS
BUYING CAPACITY:
The cost of property has increased like anything in the last couple of years. With lesser
hike in people’s salaries, it is impossible to think of buying land or house. That is where
mortgage comes to help. A mortgage loan definitely helps increase the buying capacity of
people
COST EFFECTIVE:
The mortgage loan is granted with your property as security. So, the lender need not
worry about the loan not being repaid. If anything goes wrong, the lender still has a
valuable property to rely upon. It can be sold to cover the debts. Due to this option, the
interest rate on mortgage loans is lower.
EASY TO REPAY:
When you take a loan, you do not have to repay the amount in one go. It can be paid as
monthly installments. For example, you can avail loan over a 25 year term which means
that you have 25 years to repay the loan as installments. So, one installment is not as big
an amount when compared to your salary which makes repayment easy.
TAX BENEFITS:
Availing mortgage loans qualify a person for income tax benefits. They reduce the
amount of tax to be paid to the government. The money you pay as interest may be
excluded from the tax. This is the reason why people take a second loan for a new
property or a house when the first one is paid off.
D. FUNCTIONS OF MORTGAGE
5. The actual possession of the mortgaged property need not always be transferred to
the mortgagee.
7. In case the mortgager fails to repay the loan, the mortgagee gets the right to
recover the debt out of the sale proceeds of the mortgaged property.
E. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGE OF A
MORTGAGE
Buying a home is likely to be the biggest purchase you’ll ever make and a mortgage will
be your largest debt. Because you can spread the repayments on your home loan over so
many years, the amount you’ll pay back every month is more manageable, and
affordable!
Traditionally, when people take out their first mortgage, they’ve tended to opt for a 25
year term. However, there are no rules about this and as we are living longer and the
retirement age is going up, 30-year mortgages are becoming more common. This can help
bring your monthly payments down, but on the flip side you’ll be saddled with the debt
for longer.
It’s worth going for the shortest term you can afford – not only will you be mortgage-free
sooner but you’ll also save yourself thousands of pounds in interest. And don’t forget,
when you remortgage and switch to a new product, you shouldn’t opt for another 25 or
30 year term.
For example, say you take a five-year fixed rate deal as your first mortgage and borrow
the money over a 25-year term. When you come to remortgage five-years later, you
should aim to take that mortgage out over 20 years.
Interest rates on mortgages tend to be lower than any other form of borrowing because
the loan is secured against your property. This means the bank or building society has the
security that if it all goes wrong and you can’t repay it there is still something valuable –
your property – to sell to pay back some, if not all, of the mortgage.
Interest rates on mortgages are constantly changing – over the years they’ve been higher
than 15% and lower than 2%. Fixed rate and tracker mortgages tend to be the most
popular, but there are also discount and offset mortgages, plus products aimed at first
time buyers and landlords. Our guide on different types of mortgages explains these in
more depth.
There are a number of government schemes available to help people buy their first home
such as Help to Buy, Funding for Lending and NewBuy. Some shared-ownership
schemes where you only buy part of the property and rent on the proportion you don’t
own yet are run by the local council or housing trusts.
Disadvantages of a mortgage
Although the monthly amount you’re paying may seem reasonable, the total amount you
pay back over the years is huge. For example, someone who borrowed £160,000 over a
25-year term would repay £280,600 in total once interest is added on! (This assumes the
rate of interest averages 5% over the term.)
Watch out for fees:
It’s not only the cost of interest that mounts up when you have a mortgage. Fees can also
be hefty. There will be set up costs each time you take out a new mortgage and these vary
significantly but some are as high as £2,000. You’ll also incur conveyancing costs
(conveyancing is the legal work required when you take out a mortgage); and there are
penalty fees to watch out for if you need to get out of your mortgage deal early.
7. TYPES OF MORTGAGES -
1. Simple Mortgage
2. Mortgage by Conditional Sale
3. Usufructuary Mortgage
4. English Mortgage
5. Mortgage by deposit of title of deeds
6. Anomalous mortgage
1. Simple Mortgage -
In a Simple mortgage, the possession of the mortgaged property is not transferred from
mortgagor to the mortgagee.
If the mortgagor fails to repay the loan, the mortgagee has the right to sell the property
and recover the loan from the sale amount.
1.On failure to repay the mortgage money before a certain date the sale shall become
absolute,or
2.On condition that on such repayment of mortgage money the sale shall become
invalid,or
3.On condition that on such repayment the mortgagee shall retransfer the property.
3. Usufructuary Mortgage -
In a usufructuary Mortgage, the possession of the mortgaged property is transferred to the
mortgagee. The mortgagee receives the income from the property (rent, profit, interest,
etc) until the repayment of the loan. The title deeds remain with the owner.
4. English Mortgage -
In an English Mortgage -
1.The mortgagor binds himself to repay the borrowed money on a certain date.
2.The mortgagor transfers the property absolutely to the mortgagee.
3.But such transfer is subject to the condition that the mortgagee will retransfer the
property on repayment before the agreed date.
6. Anomalous mortgage -
Anomalous mortgage is a combination of different types of mortgages.
There are many types of mortgages used worldwide, but several factors broadly define
the characteristics of the mortgage. All of these may be subject to local regulation and
legal requirements.
Interest: Interest may be fixed for the life of the loan or variable, and change at
certain pre-defined periods; the interest rate can also, of course, be higher or lower.
Term: Mortgage loans generally have a maximum term, that is, the number of
years after which an amortizing loan will be repaid. Some mortgage loans may have
no amortization, or require full repayment of any remaining balance at a certain date,
or even negative amortization.
Payment amount and frequency: The amount paid per period and the frequency of
payments; in some cases, the amount paid per period may change or the borrower
may have the option to increase or decrease the amount paid.
The two basic types of amortized loans are the fixed rate mortgage (FRM)
and adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) (also known as a floating rate or variable rate
mortgage). In some countries, such as the United States, fixed rate mortgages are the
norm, but floating rate mortgages are relatively common. Combinations of fixed and
floating rate mortgages are also common, whereby a mortgage loan will have a fixed rate
for some period, for example the first five years, and vary after the end of that period.
In a fixed rate mortgage, the interest rate, remains fixed for the life (or term) of
the loan. In case of an annuity repayment scheme, the periodic payment remains the
same amount throughout the loan. In case of linear payback, the periodic payment
will gradually decrease.
In an adjustable rate mortgage, the interest rate is generally fixed for a period of
time, after which it will periodically (for example, annually or monthly) adjust up or
down to some market index. Adjustable rates transfer part of the interest rate risk
from the lender to the borrower, and thus are widely used where fixed rate funding is
difficult to obtain or prohibitively expensive. Since the risk is transferred to the
borrower, the initial interest rate may be, for example, 0.5% to 2% lower than the
average 30-year fixed rate; the size of the price differential will be related to debt
market conditions, including the yield curve.
The charge to the borrower depends upon the credit risk in addition to the interest rate
risk. The mortgage origination and underwriting process involves checking credit scores,
debt-to-income, down payments, and assets. Jumbo mortgages and subprime lending are
not supported by government guarantees and face higher interest rates. Other innovations
described below can affect the rates as well.
Loan to value and down payments
Upon making a mortgage loan for the purchase of a property, lenders usually require that
the borrower make a down payment; that is, contribute a portion of the cost of the
property. This down payment may be expressed as a portion of the value of the property
(see below for a definition of this term). The loan to value ratio (or LTV) is the size of the
loan against the value of the property. Therefore, a mortgage loan in which the purchaser
has made a down payment of 20% has a loan to value ratio of 80%. For loans made
against properties that the borrower already owns, the loan to value ratio will be imputed
against the estimated value of the property.
The loan to value ratio is considered an important indicator of the riskiness of a mortgage
loan: the higher the LTV, the higher the risk that the value of the property (in case of
foreclosure) will be insufficient to cover the remaining principal of the loan.
1. Actual or transaction value: this is usually taken to be the purchase price of the
property. If the property is not being purchased at the time of borrowing, this
information may not be available.
3. Estimated value: lenders or other parties may use their own internal estimates,
particularly in jurisdictions where no official appraisal procedure exists, but also
in some other circumstances.
Payment and debt ratios
Some lenders may also require a potential borrower have one or more months of "reserve
assets" available. In other words, the borrower may be required to show the availability
of enough assets to pay for the housing costs (including mortgage, taxes, etc.) for a period
of time in the event of the job loss or other loss of income.
Many countries have lower requirements for certain borrowers, or "no-doc" / "low-doc"
lending standards that may be acceptable under certain circumstances.
A standard or conforming mortgage is a key concept as it often defines whether or not the
mortgage can be easily sold or securitized, or, if non-standard, may affect the price at
which it may be sold. In the United States, a conforming mortgage is one which meets the
established rules and procedures of the two major government-sponsored entities in the
housing finance market (including some legal requirements). In contrast, lenders who
decide to make nonconforming loans are exercising a higher risk tolerance and do so
knowing that they face more challenge in reselling the loan. Many countries have similar
concepts or agencies that define what are "standard" mortgages. Regulated lenders (such
as banks) may be subject to limits or higher risk weightings for non-standard mortgages.
For example, banks and mortgage brokerages in Canada face restrictions on lending more
than 80% of the property value; beyond this level, mortgage insurance is generally
required.
In some countries with currencies that tend to depreciate, foreign currency mortgages are
common, enabling lenders to lend in a stable foreign currency, whilst the borrower takes
on the currency risk that the currency will depreciate and they will therefore need to
convert higher amounts of the domestic currency to repay the loan.
8.REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
Mortgage lending is the primary mechanism used in many countries to finance private
ownership of residential and commercial property (see commercial mortgages). Although
the terminology and precise forms will differ from country to country, the basic
components tend to be similar:
Property: the physical residence being financed. The exact form of ownership will
vary from country to country, and may restrict the types of lending that are possible.
Mortgage: the security interest of the lender in the property, which may entail
restrictions on the use or disposal of the property. Restrictions may include
requirements to purchase home insurance and mortgage insurance, or pay off
outstanding debt before selling the property.
Principal: the original size of the loan, which may or may not include certain
other costs; as any principal is repaid, the principal will go down in size.
Completion: legal completion of the mortgage deed, and hence the start of the
mortgage.
Many other specific characteristics are common to many markets, but the above are the
essential features. Governments usually regulate many aspects of mortgage lending,
either directly (through legal requirements, for example) or indirectly (through regulation
of the participants or the financial markets, such as the banking industry), and often
through state intervention (direct lending by the government, direct lending by state-
owned banks, or sponsorship of various entities). Other aspects that define a specific
mortgage market may be regional, historical, or driven by specific characteristics of the
legal or financial system.
Mortgage loans are generally structured as long-term loans, the periodic payments for
which are similar to an annuity and calculated according to the time value of
moneyformulae. The most basic arrangement would require a fixed monthly payment
over a period of ten to thirty years, depending on local conditions. Over this period the
principal component of the loan (the original loan) would be slowly paid down
through amortization. In practice, many variants are possible and common worldwide and
within each country.
Lenders provide funds against property to earn interest income, and generally borrow
these funds themselves (for example, by taking deposits or issuing bonds). The price at
which the lenders borrow money therefore affects the cost of borrowing. Lenders may
also, in many countries, sell the mortgage loan to other parties who are interested in
receiving the stream of cash payments from the borrower, often in the form of a security
(by means of a securitization).
Mortgage lending will also take into account the (perceived) riskiness of the mortgage
loan, that is, the likelihood that the funds will be repaid (usually considered a function of
the creditworthiness of the borrower); that if they are not repaid, the lender will be able to
foreclose on the real estate assets; and the financial, interest rate risk and time delays that
may be involved in certain circumstances.
ELIGIBILITY
FACTORS
The general factors taken into account while determining the eligibility of loan against
property are listed below:
1. Income.
2. Age (Min. 21 Years).
3. Property Valuation.
4. Existing Liabilities (if any).
5. Current Work Experience.
6. Financial Documents.
7. Number of Dependants.
DOCUMENTS
As personal loans are unsecured, interest rates are comparatively higher and competitive
than the other forms of loan. Though personal loan is a quick way to access extra cash,
one will face non-payment penalty if not repaid on time. It’s a bad option to go consider
personal loan for investments as this could backfire.
Though personal loans are the easiest way to obtain cash for any personal emergency,
there are few eligibility criteria’s one should suffice to obtain the loan.
Some of the banks approve personal loans with in 24hrs to 1 week. For the quick
approval process, its very important to have the below documents ready without which
the loan will be rejected.
Salaried Applicants:
Proof of address: Leave and License Agreement / Utility Bill (not more than 3
months old) / Passport
Income proof: Salary slip for last 3 months/ current dated salary certificate with
the latest Form 16
Investment Proof (if any): Please submit if any investment likes, Fixed Deposit,
Shares, Fixed Assets, etc.
Existing EMI: If any existing loan, please submit sanction letter, Payment Track
Record.
Self-Employed Applicants:
Proof of address: Leave and License Agreement / Utility Bill (not more than 3
months old) / Passport
Business Existence Proof: Saral Copy for 3 yrs, Shop Establishment Act, Any Tax
Registration Copy, Company Registration license
Bank Statement: Latest 1 year bank statement both current and savings.
Investment Proof (if any): please submit if any investments like, Fixed Deposit,
Shares, Fixed Assets, etc.
Existing EMI: If any existing loan, please submit sanction letter, Payment Track
Record.
PROCEDURE OF MORTGAGE
1) Contact the loan officer. The loan officer acts as the intermediary between you and the
borrower, and they can answer any questions you have about the loan. If you have any
questions about the information, the loan officer can answer them.
Read through the application and other documents received first to make sure you
understand everything about the loan before you get started with the processing. If you
have any questions, it's better to ask them as soon as possible.
2) Enter loan information into the computer system. The bank or lending company where
you work will have its own system for entering information about each loan you process.
Enter the information you've received accurately and completely.
If the computer system prompts you for information you don't have in the loan
file you received, contact the loan officer as soon as possible so you can get this
information filled in.
The computer system will generate deadlines for various processing steps to be
completed, and may send you reminders when a deadline is approaching.
3) Order the borrower's credit report. If the borrower was pre-approved, the loan officer
may already have pulled the borrower's credit report and included it in the information
sent to you. If not, you'll have to order one.
You may need a credit report from each of the three major credit reporting
bureaus. If the loan officer only checked one, you may still need to order the other two.
5) Start a title search. The title search for the property will reveal whether there are any
outstanding liens or other claims against the title, which could affect the value of the
property.
It's possible that the loan officer has already set the wheels in motion for the title
search, or you may be responsible for handling this on your own.
1) Check the borrower's income sources. The borrower's income is perhaps the most
important part of their loan package, because it determines their ability to pay back the
loan. Typically you'll be looking at the borrower's tax returns or pay stubs going back a
couple of years.
The borrower's education and employment history can be just as important as the
amount of their income.
For example, if you have a borrower in their mid-20s who just graduated with a
professional degree and has started working full-time in that field, their income probably
will increase as they gain experience in their field.
You may need additional information to verify the borrower's income if they are
self-employed. Request this information as soon as possible to avoid any unnecessary
delays.
2) Evaluate the borrower's assets. The borrower may have other property that either could
generate income on its own or could be liquidated to pay debts if necessary. The value of
these assets will affect the amount of the loan that gets approved.
Assets are particularly important if the borrower has limited or fixed income,
perhaps because they're retired.
When assessing value here, take into account whether the borrower has used that
property as collateral on another loan.
3) Analyze the borrower's outstanding debts and credit history. The borrower's credit
report provides a snapshot of how that borrower handles credit. Compare their
outstanding debt to their income, and check for missed payments.
Your employer will have basic standards that must be met. If the borrower doesn't
meet these standards, they may need to provide additional information. For example, if a
borrower has an unacceptable number of late payments on their report, the lender may
require an explanation.
4) Get proof of insurance. All lenders require borrowers to prove that they have
homeowner's insurance, or can get homeowner's insurance for the property. Your
employer will have set coverage standards that must be met.
Homeowner's insurance protects the property, which is being used as collateral for
the loan. While the homeowner is still paying their mortgage, the insurance protects the
lender as well as the homeowner from loss.
If proof of insurance wasn't submitted with the original loan application, work
with the loan officer to get documentation from the borrower.
1) Review the file. Before you send the file off to the underwriter, take a moment to look
through all the information and documents in the file and make sure everything is
complete and accurate. Check for errors and contact the loan officer if you need
clarification on anything.
As you review the file, note any possible red flags or other cause for concern. This
saves the underwriter some time as they go through the file.
Make sure the file follows the underwriter's formatting and organization
guidelines. If documents or information are presented in the wrong order, it could impact
the loan's approval.
3) Forward the loan package to the underwriter. Once you're satisfied that everything in
the loan package is complete and in an acceptable form, it's ready to move on to the
underwriting process.
You may be required to send the package through a supervisor first, who will review
your work and point out any changes that should be made. This is especially likely if
you're just starting out as a loan processor.
One topic that inevitably arises very early in a borrower’s conversations with a MLO is
the interest rate that may be available. The interest rate is the amount charged by a lender
to a borrower for the use of assets, expressed as a percentage of the loan amount (the
principal). When considering interest rates, you may hear the term basis point, which is
1/100th of a percentage point. For example, 325 basis points equal 3.25% or 3 1/4%.
A couple of other terms to keep in mind when discussing interest with borrowers:
• Par rate is a term that describes the rate without discounts or points that lenders offer
only to mortgage brokers, also known as the “wholesale” rate, that does not create an
additional charge or provide for a credit for the borrower.
• Rate Lock. This is a commitment guaranteed by a lender that an interest rate will not
change on a specific loan for a specific period of time. Since a lock-in agreement
generally requires that the loan close by a specific date, the anticipated close date should
be carefully considered. If a loan closes after the rate lock expires, the lender may choose
to offer the market rate current at that time or the original lock-in rate.
• Float. Between the time of application and closing, a borrower may choose to bet on
interest rates decreasing by electing to float. Floating is essentially choosing not to lock
the interest rate. Since it is the borrower’s responsibility to lock his or her rate before
closing, choosing to float is considered risky and may result in a higher interest rate.
10. MORTGAGE BROKERS
A competent mortgage broker provides a broader range of choice and product for
residential real estate loans than any single lender is willing to provide. As you have just
seen from the above tables and mortgage variables, you need somebody to find the way
through the maze of options features. A Accredited Mortgage Professional can help you
find the perfect mortgage that provides the flexibility and security your family needs.
When you reach the point where you are ready to apply for your mortgage, consider
using an independent mortgage broker or If you are the type of person that knows exactly
what you need, then all you need to do is to...
Mortgage brokers may be able to find you the loan of your dreams, but you should weigh
the potential downsides before hiring one.
Working with an experienced, competent mortgage broker can help you find the right
mortgage. All the same, there are both advantages and disadvantages to consider before
committing to one.
Mortgage brokers have regular contact with a wide variety of lenders, some of whom you
may not even know about. A broker also can steer you away from certain lenders
with onerous payment terms buried in their mortgage contracts. That said, it is beneficial
to do some research of your own before meeting with a broker. An easy way to quickly
get a sense of the average rates available for the type of mortgage you're applying for is
to search rates online, then use a mortgage calculator. Tools like this will let you compare
rates easily and provide you with extra knowledge when assessing a mortgage broker's
credibility.
Some lenders work exclusively with mortgage brokers and rely on them to be the
gatekeepers to bring them suitable clients. You may not be able to call some lenders up
directly to get a retail mortgage. Brokers may also be able to get special rates from
lenders due to the volume of business generated that might be lower than you can get on
your own.
Key Takeaways:
Working with a mortgage broker can save you time and fees.
Cons to consider include that a broker's interests may not be aligned with your
own, you may not get the best deal, and they may not guarantee estimates.
Take the time to contact lenders directly to find out first hand what mortgages
may be available to you.
Several different types of fees can be involved in taking on a new mortgage or working
with a new lender, including origination fees, application fees, and appraisal fees. In
some cases, mortgage brokers may be able to get lenders to waive some or all of these
fees, which can save you hundreds to thousands of dollars.
Your ultimate goal in shopping for a mortgage is to find one with an affordable interest
rate and low fees. You are in it for the long haul. A mortgage broker, on the other hand,
often gets a fee from the lender for bringing in the business. This fee can be based on the
amount of the mortgage and will vary among lenders. A broker's goal, therefore, is to get
you into a mortgage that maximizes their compensation. The 2008 market crash revealed
that many brokers were getting their clients into mortgages that they could not afford
over time.
Many home buyers simply assume that a broker can deliver a better deal than they could
get on their own, but this is not always the case. Some lenders may offer home buyers the
very same terms and rates that they offer mortgage brokers (sometimes, even better). It
never hurts to shop around on your own to see if your broker is really offering you a great
deal. As mentioned earlier, using a mortgage calculator is an easy way to fact check if
your broker is offering you a good deal.
Mortgage brokers are paid either by the lender or by you. If the fee is covered by the
lender, you need to be concerned whether you might be steered to a more expensive loan
because the commission to the broker is more lucrative. If you pay the fee, figure it into
the mortgage costs before deciding how good a deal you are getting. And be sure to settle
all fee issues up front before you sign anything or start working with a broker.
When a mortgage broker first presents you with offers from lenders, they often use the
term "good faith estimate." This means that the broker believes that the offer will embody
the final terms of the deal, but this is not always the case. In some cases, the lender may
change the terms based on your actual application, and you may end up paying a higher
rate or additional fees.
This is an increasing trend since 2008, as some lenders are finding that broker-originated
mortgages were more likely to go into default than those sourced through direct lending.
By working through a broker, you may not have access to these lenders, some of
whom may be able to offer you better mortgage terms than you can get through the
broker.
11. REPAYMENT METHOD
This is the most popular and most widely available mortgage repayment option.
With a repayment mortgage you’ll make monthly repayments for an agreed period
of time (known as the term) until you’ve paid back both the capital and the
interest.
This means that your mortgage balance will get smaller every month and, as long
as you keep up the repayments, your mortgage will be repaid at the end of the
term (usually 25 years).
Be aware that when you start your mortgage, the repayments will mainly be
interest, so if you want to repay the mortgage or move house in the early years,
you’ll find that the amount you owe won’t have gone down by much.
You must also then decide the type of repayment mortgage you want, whether it’s
to have the interest rate fixed over time, or variable, which means the interest rate
can go up or down.
An amortization schedule is typically worked out taking the principal left at the end of
each month, multiplying by the monthly rate and then subtracting the monthly payment.
This is typically generated by an amortization calculator using the following formula:
where:
Until recently] it was not uncommon for interest only mortgages to be arranged without a
repayment vehicle, with the borrower gambling that the property market will rise
sufficiently for the loan to be repaid by trading down at retirement (or when rent on the
property and inflation combine to surpass the interest rate).
A resurgence in the equity release market has been the introduction of interest-only
lifetime mortgages. Where an interest-only mortgage has a fixed term, an interest-only
lifetime mortgage will continue for the rest of the mortgagors life. These schemes have
proved of interest to people who do like the roll-up effect (compounding) of interest on
traditional equity release schemes. They have also proved beneficial to people who had
an interest-only mortgage with no repayment vehicle and now need to settle the loan.
These people can now effectively remortgage onto an interest-only lifetime mortgage to
maintain continuity.
Reverse mortgages
For older borrowers (typically in retirement), it may be possible to arrange a mortgage
where neither the principal nor interest is repaid. The interest is rolled up with the
principal, increasing the debt each year.
These arrangements are variously called reverse mortgages, lifetime mortgages or equity
release mortgages (referring to home equity), depending on the country. The loans are
typically not repaid until the borrowers are deceased, hence the age restriction.
Through the Federal Housing Administration, the U.S. government insures reverse
mortgages via a program called the HECM (Home Equity Conversion Mortgage). Unlike
standard mortgages (where the entire loan amount is typically disbursed at the time of
loan closing) the HECM program allows the homeowner to receive funds in a variety of
ways: as a one time lump sum payment; as a monthly tenure payment which continues
until the borrower dies or moves out of the house permanently; as a monthly payment
over a defined period of time; or as a credit line.
Variations
Graduated payment mortgage loans have increasing costs over time and are geared to
young borrowers who expect wage increases over time. Balloon payment mortgages have
only partial amortization, meaning that amount of monthly payments due are calculated
(amortized) over a certain term, but the outstanding principal balance is due at some point
short of that term, and at the end of the term a balloon payment is due. When interest
rates are high relative to the rate on an existing seller's loan, the buyer can
consider assuming the seller's mortgage. A wraparound mortgage is a form of seller
financing that can make it easier for a seller to sell a property. A biweekly mortgage has
payments made every two weeks instead of monthly.
Budget loans include taxes and insurance in the mortgage payment; package loans add
the costs of furnishings and other personal property to the mortgage. Buydown mortgages
allow the seller or lender to pay something similar to points to reduce interest rate and
encourage buyers. Homeowners can also take out equity loans in which they receive cash
for a mortgage debt on their house. Shared appreciation mortgages are a form of equity
release. In the US, foreign nationals due to their unique situation face Foreign National
mortgage conditions.
Flexible mortgages allow for more freedom by the borrower to skip payments or
prepay. Offset mortgages allow deposits to be counted against the mortgage loan. In the
UK there is also the endowment mortgage where the borrowers pay interest while the
principal is paid with a life insurance policy.
Commercial mortgages typically have different interest rates, risks, and contracts than
personal loans. Participation mortgages allow multiple investors to share in a loan.
Builders may take out blanket loans which cover several properties at once. Bridge
loans may be used as temporary financing pending a longer-term loan. Hard money
loans provide financing in exchange for the mortgaging of real estate collateral.
In virtually all jurisdictions, specific procedures for foreclosure and sale of the mortgaged
property apply, and may be tightly regulated by the relevant government. There are strict
or judicial foreclosures and non-judicial foreclosures, also known as power of sale
foreclosures. In some jurisdictions, foreclosure and sale can occur quite rapidly, while in
others, foreclosure may take many months or even years. In many countries, the ability of
lenders to foreclose is extremely limited, and mortgage market development has been
notably slower.
16. MORTGAGE INSURANCE
This policy is typically paid for by the borrower as a component to final nominal (note)
rate, or in one lump sum up front, or as a separate and itemized component of monthly
mortgage payment. In the last case, mortgage insurance can be dropped when the lender
informs the borrower, or its subsequent assigns, that the property has appreciated, the
loan has been paid down, or any combination of both to relegate the loan-to-value under
80%.
In the event of repossession, banks, investors, etc. must resort to selling the property to
recoup their original investment (the money lent) and are able to dispose of hard assets
(such as real estate) more quickly by re ductions in price. Therefore, the mortgage
insurance acts as a hedge should the repossessing authority recover less than full and fair
market value for any hard asset.
17. FUTURE PROSPECTS
Digital technology has disrupted businesses and industries from publishing to public
transportation, so can the mortgage industry be far behind? Actually, anyone who’s
applied for a mortgage recently will have recognized that things are already changing
fast.
Meeting that high expectation will require more innovation, disruption and technology
than has been deployed to date. But more technology comes with its own challenges.
Understanding new customers’ expectations, realizing those opportunities, recognizing
the concerns and creating the right solutions are the keys to a bright digital future in the
mortgage industry.
The main cause behind the rise in investments in housing finance, that has grown rapidly
at a compound rate of growth of 78 % per annum from the previous figure of 45.6 %, is
the increase in the quantity of loan takeovers. The major development in the mortgage
banking sector is the financing package of $ 200 million which is granted by the
International Finance Corporation to Housing Development Finance Corporation. This
loan has been granted to upgrade the financial sector in India like supplying funds to
people who fall within the middle class income segment of India.
Facts about Mortgage Banking:
The public sector has been able to grab only 25 % of the share of investment made
towards housing finance. The importance of commercial banks have been grown
immensely now a days, on account of its increased participation in the direct housing
finance sector.
The percentage of participation in the direct housing finance sector has jumped from
approximately 27 % in the financial year 2000 to nearly 57 % in the financial year 2003.
Mortgage banking is presently being done by a large number of cooperative banks,
private companies dealing with housing finance, non-banking financial companies and so
on. The companies providing housing finance have gained immensely from the mortgage
banking sector.
The phenomenon of economic liberalization and globalization have aided the foreign
banks to enter the banking sector in India and presently various foreign banks have
started their mortgage finance segments in India. The most prominent banks dealing with
mortgage banking in India are:
Some of the significant financial companies of the United States have also entered into
the banking sector in India and are involved in asset securitization.
Indian Banks Mortgage Banking:
According to the recent survey the commercial banks are going to further push back the
other financial institutions in the race for grabbing more housing finance investments.
The prominent commercial banks dealing with mortgage banking in India includes:

Interpretation:-
To interpret the response of the questions, the figures shows that most of the customers
find the problem in availability of funds i.e. 36% and very less number of customers found
problem in paying cash in one go is 35%, customers get housing loan for tax benefits is 24%.
This was the expected response because a large number of people find a problem of availability
of funds which works as an obstacle in owning a dream home.
In today's life, people hardly earn both means and ends of life and they don't have much
of money to buy a home or a land to construct house because of cost of property. So, they take the
advantage of home loans provided by different banks at different terms feasible to the customers.
There are very less number of people, who don't own home even when they have sufficient funds
and they take the advantage of home loans because they don't want to pay huge cash in one go.
On the basis of study, it is concluded that most of people lack of money in fulfiling their
dreams and few of them were reluctant to pay cash in one go and wanted to pay their home loans
slowly in installments.

Interpretation:-
The analysis showed that a large number of customers prefer HDFC LTD as compared to
others. The data shows that 7% of customers took loan from Standard Chartered Bank, 20% of
customers from ICICI BANK, 15% Customers took loan from Punjab National Bank, 55% of
customers took loan from HDFC LTD and a 3% of customers fall under the category of 'Any
other' which included State Bank of India, Canara Bank, Punjab and Sind Bank, etc.
The data shows that most of people prefer HDFC LTD compared to public sector banks
and other private banks. This is because of the extra services provided by HDFC LTD. However,
there is less difference in figures of ICICI Bank and Punjab National Bank. But there is
considerable difference in figures of the two private sector banks i.e. ICICI bank and Standard
Chartered Bank. As ICICI is the market leader in the home loans sector. This may be the reason
for such difference in Standard Chartered Bank's percentage and ICICI Bank's percentage.
Another reason for specialized services in home loans, more amounts of loans, and efficient query
handling. However, the analysis showed that the people prefer HDFC LTD for home loan because
of their services and excessive feat compared to other banks.

8. HDFC LTD is providing good services to their customers.
9. ) The interest rates also some what high when compare to other banks
SUGGESTIONS
1) To increase their customers, the HDFC LTD should provide specialized services in this
sector. These services can be such as proper guidance to the customer regarding the processing of
loans, especially for the customers who are illiterate.
2) To satisfy their customers and for good dealings in future, the HDFC LTD should
make prompt disbursement of loan amount to the customers so that they can buy or construct
their dream home as early as possible.
3) The HDFC LTD should use easy procedure, or say, less lengthy procedure for the
sanctioning of loan to the customer. There should be less number of legal formalities, in case this
exists, then, these should be completed in less time. This will be helpful in attracting more
customers.
4) Although the interest rates on specific norms, yet customers seek less interest rate which can
lower their cost of house. So banks should try to lower their interest rates. Needles to say, that the
bank which is having lower interest rates, have the maximum clients for loans.
5) HDFC LTD provide loan according to the repaying capacity of the customer and his/her
eligibility. Due to which, some customers are not able to get amount of loan needed by them. So,
the HDFC LTD should soften their norms regarding the loan amount.
6) Create awareness: The Company has to take care of awareness creation about the products and
services among the customers.
7) Charges: The Company has to reduce the mortality and administration charges.
8) The company has to reduce their interest rates on home loan products and services.
10) Company should consider the present competition and should act according to the
customer needs.
CONCLUSION
There are two primary types of mortgages: fixed rate and variable rate.
A fixed-rate mortgage is a loan that charges a set rate of interest that typically
does not change throughout the life of the loan.
Fixed-rate mortgages enable buyers to spread out the cost of paying for an
expensive purchase by making smaller, predictable payments over a long period
of time.
Variable-rate mortgages have lower initial interest rates than fixed-rate mortgages,
resulting in lower monthly mortgage payments, enabling buyers to afford more
expensive homes than they would be able to purchase with a fixed-rate mortgage.
A solid credit rating and a mortgage pre-approval will both be beneficial when
you are shopping for a home. Pre-approval show buyers that you are able to make
the purchase.
There are many types of loan and many potential lenders. When shopping for a
loan, take your time and search for the best deal.
Shopping for a new home is exciting. It is also a little bit complicated. There's a lot to
think about and plenty of opportunities to spend more than you should. Like all major
financial decisions, home shopping should not be a decision made in haste.
A careful look at your finances, a thorough review of the amount you wish to spend, and
some consideration of the type of loan that you will comfortable with should all be part of
your pre-planning process. With just a little bit of careful planning and some patience,
your search for the home of your dreams can be a rewarding and financially responsible
experience that gives you a great place to live without breaking the bank.
