Getting a home loan is simple if you know what you are looking for. But it is hard to see through when you have the media filled with advertisement, promotion and incentives. Various home loan options from several lenders and their differences in credit assessment policy add to the complexity further.

Applying for a mortgage is more than just picking up a loan product or choosing any lender that you like. It's about meeting your current needs and immediate future needs. It is also about developing a habit to review the home loan on a regular basis, once you obtain one.

Yes, it is about strategy and believe us or not, it all starts from YOU. Your specific circumstances should define the strategy and work out the loan product you need. Then only you can start comparing lenders for similar products. Incentives and promotions come to the last!
