Balance Transfer
BALANCE TRANSFER
A Balance Transfer is a smart debt management solution that allows you to shift your existing high interest loan or credit card balance to a new lender offering a lower interest rate or a 0% promotional period. This helps you reduce your EMI burden, save on interest costs and manage repayments more efficiently.
At Property Trivandrum, we help you explore the best balance transfer options for both home loans and personal loans, ensuring better savings and improved financial flexibility.
How balance transfer works
- You transfer your existing outstanding loan or credit card balance to a new lender
- The new lender offers a lower interest rate or better repayment terms
- Your old loan is closed or reduced using the new loan amount
- You continue repayment with lower EMIs or better tenure options
