A Loan Against Property (LAP) is a secured loan that allows individuals and business owners to borrow funds by pledging their residential, commercial, or industrial property as collateral. Since the loan is backed by property security, borrowers can access higher loan amounts, lower interest rates, and longer repayment tenures compared to unsecured loans.
The property offered as collateral may include residential homes, commercial buildings, industrial units, vacant land, or special properties such as hotels, hospitals, schools, and colleges. Loan Against Property is an ideal financing solution for business expansion, working capital needs, education expenses, medical emergencies, or personal financial requirements.
