Loan Against Property — Borrow Against Property You Own, Matched to the Right Lender
A loan against property lets you mortgage a residential, commercial or industrial property you own and borrow against its market value — usually a larger amount, a longer tenure and a lower rate than an unsecured loan. Our CA and finance team builds a bankable, valuation-aware file — title papers, financials, project report and CMA where needed — and connects you with our banking and NBFC partners. You keep the property; the lender holds a mortgage until repayment. We facilitate and advise; the sanction, LTV, rate and amount are always the lender's decision, and your property is at risk if you default.

What Is Loan Against Property (LAP)?
A quick, plain-language explanation before the details.
A loan against property is money a bank or NBFC lends you against a property you already own. You mortgage the property as security, borrow a share of its market value, and repay with interest over a long tenure. The property stays yours; the lender only holds a charge on it until you repay. TaxClue prepares your file and connects you with a lender likely to fund it.
A loan against property is a secured mortgage loan governed by each lender's credit policy within the Reserve Bank of India's lending norms. The lender independently appraises your repayment capacity, verifies title and legal standing, and values the property before deciding the loan-to-value, rate and amount. A mortgage or charge is created in the lender's favour and released on full repayment. TaxClue acts only as a facilitator and advisor and does not itself extend credit.
There is no single approving authority — the sanction rests with the lending bank or NBFC. The mortgage is created under the Transfer of Property Act and registered as required, and the lender follows its own valuation and legal-verification norms.
A sanction is valid for the tenure and terms set out in the sanction letter. LAP tenures are long — commonly up to about 15 years — and the mortgage stays in place until the loan is fully repaid, after which the charge is released and the property papers returned.

Talk to an Expert →Why How You Prepare & Place a LAP File Decides the Outcome
A loan against property turns on two things the lender checks closely — the property (title and valuation) and your repayment capacity. How the file is built and where it is sent moves the answer. Here is what actually matters.
-
01
Clean Title & Valuation
A clear, marketable title and a strong valuation drive the LTV and the amount you can raise. We get the title papers review-ready and set realistic expectations before the lender's legal and valuation checks.
-
02
Realistic LTV Expectation
Lenders typically fund about 60–70% of market value, and the exact LTV varies by property type, location and lender. We help you gauge a realistic amount upfront rather than a figure that invites a cut sanction.
-
03
A Bankable Case
Financials, income proof, project report and CMA that tie together show repayment capacity clearly — the other half of a LAP decision beyond the property itself.
-
04
Right Lender, Right Product
Banks and NBFCs differ on LTV, accepted property types and pricing. Placing your file with a lender that funds your property and profile is half the battle. We match rather than mass-apply.
-
05
Clean Documentation
Property chain, income and KYC documents assembled and checked upfront remove the friction that delays legal, valuation and appraisal.
-
06
One Point of Contact
From eligibility check to disbursement — including valuation and legal coordination — the same team manages queries and follow-up instead of you chasing a branch.

What You’ll Receive
What Documents Does a Loan Against Property Need?
A LAP file draws on three groups — your KYC and income, the property papers, and the loan purpose. The property documents matter as much as income, because the lender runs a legal check and valuation on them. Share what you have; our team tells you exactly what your matched lender needs and fills the gaps.
KYC & Income
Who you are and how you earn- PAN & Aadhaar of applicant(s) / co-applicant(s)
- Business constitution proof (deed / COI / Udyam certificate), if self-employed
- Income proof — ITR & financials for the last 2–3 years
- Bank statements (usually last 6–12 months)
- Existing loan / EMI details, if any
Property Papers
The property being mortgaged- Title deed & complete chain of ownership documents
- Sale deed / allotment & possession letter
- Approved building plan / occupancy certificate (where applicable)
- Latest property tax receipts & up-to-date bills
- Encumbrance certificate / existing-charge details, if any
Purpose & Business
What you are funding- Loan purpose & requested amount
- GST registration & recent GST returns, if a business
- Sales / order data supporting turnover
- Working-capital or expansion requirement estimate
- Details of any co-owner joining as co-applicant
Title is checked closely
The lender runs a legal / title verification on the property before sanction. A clear, marketable title with a complete ownership chain is central to how quickly the file moves — we get these review-ready first.
Valuation drives the amount
The lender values the property and typically funds around 60–70% of market value. The valuation, not your asking figure, sets the LTV and loan amount — we help you form a realistic expectation upfront.
Repayment capacity still matters
Even with property as security, the lender assesses income and cash flow to confirm you can service the EMI. A strong financials file supports both the amount and the rate.
The property is at risk on default
A LAP is a mortgage. If you default, the lender can enforce its charge and the property is at risk. Borrow an amount and EMI your cash flow can comfortably sustain over the tenure.

The whole process runs online, with your inputs collected securely and your file placed only after you approve the lender and terms. Valuation and legal verification are conducted by the lender.

Valuation & Legal
The lender values the property and runs its legal / title check; we coordinate and manage queries.

Mortgage & Disbursement
Mortgage / charge is created; post-sanction documentation is completed and funds are disbursed by the lender.
How Long Does a Loan Against Property Take?
| Stage | Expected Time |
|---|---|
| Eligibility check & product/lender match | Day 1–2 |
| File preparation (title review / financials / documents) | Day 2–7 |
| Valuation, legal, appraisal, sanction & disbursement | 2–6 weeks* |
*A loan against property involves a property valuation and a legal / title check, so it usually takes longer than an unsecured loan. The valuation, legal, sanction and disbursement timeline is set by the bank or NBFC and varies with property type, title clarity and location. TaxClue controls file quality and follow-up, not the lender's internal timeline.
