As a matter of fact FNB home loans are being granted into the millions of rands on a daily basis.
What do you need to do and be sure of when applying for a FNB home loan?
FNB Home Loans qualification Tip 1 – Be Credit Worthy. What does being credit worthy entail?
This would include paying the full monthly installment due and on time.
FNB Home Loans Qualification Tip 2 – Check Your Affordability
Check that you will be able to afford the bond you are applying for. At present banks will only look at taking 30% of your income as a bond installment. That means you must still have enough left for living and traveling expenses and other commitments.

In line with Tip 2, take your current rent amount and subtract it from your future bond installment amount. Save that difference for six months and only after 6 months look at buying a house. Doing this has 2 benefits, firstly you will know if you are going to be able to afford those monthly home loan installments. And secondly you will have savings for moving and other expenses, perhaps even some new furniture.
