Housing loans (mortgages) are among the various solutions in Indonesia for financing home purchases. Banking services have become an option as housing prices continue to soar while the funds available to buy a new house have not been fully acquired.
Housing is indeed a primary need to be met. However, choosing a suitable house to live in is not an easy matter. In addition to having to make sure that your prospective house meets a certain standard, you also need to make sure that the price of the house being offered is in accordance with your income range.
For most people, buying a house feels like a burden as the amount of money they need to provide is usually substantially large. For this reason, many people decide to apply for a housing loan. This way, you simply have to prepare a down payment (DP) for the purchase of a house, and then make a monthly mortgage payment according to the stated agreement.
Housing credit or better known as KPR (House Ownership Credit) is a credit facility given from banks to customers in order to buy or repair houses. In Indonesia, there are currently two types of mortgages, namely subsidized mortgages (for the lower middle income community) and non-subsidized mortgages (for the general public).
If you currently have plans to buy a house and are further interested in applying for a housing loan, here are the major steps you need to take:

Firstly, you need to determine the house you want to buy. You need to know that not all homes can be purchased through a housing loan. So, you need to know which homes within the area can be purchased on credit.
After determining the house you want to buy, the next step is to find out in greater detail the costs that must be paid. Ask the bank, how much the down payment is, and how much you will need to spend on the costs for paying the installments every month.
After knowing in greater detail the cost of your desired house, the next step is to make a signed payment; every company has its own rules regarding this, so make sure you understand these regulations first before making a payment.
Some housing development companies usually consider this as part of the down payment. If so, then you only need to pay the rest.
The housing developer will usually help with the mortgage application process in regards to the chosen bank. But if not, then you will have to submit it yourself. Prepare all the required documents needed for the housing loan application and wait for an approval from the bank.
