SBI is the largest bank in India and offers a variety of home loans to suit the needs of different individuals. It is possible to submit the loan application online and upload the necessary documents or you can visit a branch and apply in person.
Loan approval and credit score: In general, you stand the best chance of securing a home loan if you have a credit score of 750 or above. Before you apply for a loan, obtain your credit report to check your latest credit score and to see if you have any credit issues that might impact your loan application. If you have a low score, wait to improve your score before applying.
Here are some of the features of the SBI home loan offers:
