Home Loan for Self-Employed: Banks' Strict Checks Revealed!
•Self-employed individuals can secure home loans, but banks apply stricter scrutiny compared to salaried applicants, focusing on EMI repayment capacity.
•Age is a key factor; younger applicants (25-40) are preferred for longer loan tenures (20-30 years) and lower EMIs due to more earning years.
•Banks require 2-3 years of ITR, Profit-Loss Statements, Balance Sheets, and Bank Statements to assess business stability and income regularity.
•Net income (after business expenses) is crucial; EMIs should ideally be 40-50% or less of this net income for easier approval.
•A high CIBIL score (750+) ensures quicker loan approval and better interest rates; additional income sources and digital checks (GST) are also beneficial.
