Home Loans

This is the story of my encounter with a dodgy home loan salesperson. I am writing this to expose all the ugly tactics she employs (yes i’ve just intentionally disclosed her gender). In fact, i will expose her name later as i think she deserves to be named and shamed.

This is the 3rd home loan i have signed up for, so by now i am fairly familiar with the process. It should be as easy as deciding on the package you want, providing all the supporting documents, getting the approval and finally signing the agreement. All went well up to the point of signing the agreement.

Congratulations! You have already taken the first step by reading this posting! It will probably help if you read some of my other postings too! By landing here, you are probably already thinking that the internet is gong to help you in finding the right home loan package. If you notice, i have a Home Loan Rates link on the top right hand side which is grossly outdated but is still attracting visitors (about 250 visits per month). Let me share with you the website you should go to for the latest home loan rates.

a. Floating rate package (inclusive of SOR or SIBOR pegged loans)

b. Fixed rate package

Answer: b

Why?
