Good offer by Axis Bank Home Loan

Looks like Axis bank has an an enticing offer that could work well with existing home loan customers of different banks/NBFCs who have been suffering with atrociously higher interest rates. 

Interest rates are too much competitive and the striking features are: 

1. Very low spread (i.e. 0.40 for loans<25L), yet great final interest rate. Note that lower spread means lower scope of manipulation for the bank in future. (If you don't understand this, wait for my next article in coming days. )

2. ZERO prepayment penalty even for refinance of your home loan. (I had always liked this particular feature of axis bank). Most of the banks charge 2%. 

The only concern might be the high processing fee (Rs. 10000 as they have mentioned in the email). But i'm sure it could be negotiable once you meet the branch managers. 

Those paying @ above 11% stand to benefit much even after paying 2% to your existing lender. I have seen people still paying @ above 13% with the so called top home loan providers. 

Below is the email that i received from info@apnarupee.com
