Segmentation Targeting and Positioning on HDFC bank
1. WHAT IS A HOME LOAN ?
It is important to choose a good housing finance company which can handhold the
customer right through his home buying process. Since a home loan is a long term
commitment of 15-20 years, several factors like expertise, quality of service, in-
depth domain knowledge and the company’s level of commitment and transparency
right through, the loan procedures, the fine print, quality of services offered and safe
retrieval of the title deed are critical.
2. THE NEED FOR HOME LOANS…
The need for home loans arises not because property prices are heading upwards
all the time but because home loans make great sense from a long-term savings
perspective. Not only are home loans a handy tool for the common man to own a
roof over his head but they also help save money in the long run.
With skyrocketing real estate prices, people are increasingly opting for housing
loans to acquire their dream home. Interest rates are coming down all the time and
the housing finance companies are literally falling over each other to lure the
prospective home-seekers.
Even if one can afford to buy a home with one's own money, home loans should be
availed because they act as good savings instrument. According to industry
estimates, the long term average return in investing in a home is about 20% p.a.
while the average cost of borrowing funds in the market today is about 10% p.a.
(considering all tax breaks).
3. LOAN V/S FULL PAYMENT
1.Tax benefits
Home loans-home loans are always tax free (wherein 80% is non taxable and only
the rest 20% is taxable)
Full payment-if a customer is paying the house with the full payment he will be taxed
on the entire amount i.e. 100%.
For salaried employees, housing loans are the best way to avail tax benefits. Many
people simply go for the home loans in order to avail these benefits. Interest
payments up to Rs. 1.5 lac on housing loans are deductible from the taxable income
and there is a further tax deduction of Rs. 4,000 against repayment of principal.
2.Black money
Home loans-for a home loan the 80% of the cost has to be in white because it is
done legally with the banks.
Full payment-may have the use of black money because there are no legal
transactions done.
