We all dream of buying our own home. But with the high real estate prices,we are
left with no other option than to take home loans to make this dream come true. And with these huge loans come astronomical
interest costs. But there is a way to make these home loans
interest free. Yes! It’s possible! And we’ll tell you exactly how in this video
But before that… a quick reminder…if you want to watch more videos like these, make
sure you click the subscribe button and hit the notification bell! While most banks and housing finance companies
highlight the EMIs you need to pay, and make you believe
that you can afford your dream house, the reality is home loans cost an insane amount
of money.
In most cases, the total interest you will
end up paying will be much higher than the loan amount. For example, for a home loan amount of ₹ 40
lakhs at 9% interest for a tenure of 20 years, EMI would be ₹ 35,989. So, if you keep paying this EMI for 20 years,
you end up paying ₹ 86.37 lakhs in total. This ₹46.37 lakhs extra is the interest
you pay. Take a moment to think about it – you pay more than what you borrowed as interest plus the actual amount.
However, there is no way out to get rid of
interest because that’s the way the loan system works. So, does it mean you should not buy a house
till the time you don’t have the entire amount? If you can, nothing like it. But for most of us, this might not be a viable
option. The Solution –
Recover the interest amount you will pay by investing in mutual funds
By starting a SIP of 0.16% of your home loan amount in an equity mutual scheme,
you can recover the interest amount.
Let’s continue with the example we mentioned
above. If you start a monthly SIP of ₹ 6400 (0.16%
of the loan amount), your investments at a 12% average annual return will grow to a total
of ₹ 63.31 lakhs in 20 years. From this corpus, even if you deduct your
invested amount, which is ₹15.36 lakhs, then also you will have ₹47.95 lakhs in
your hands, which is more than enough to cover the interest you will pay. This calculation holds true no matter what
your loan amount is If you have taken or are planning to take
a loan to buy your dream home, you will have to pay interest costs. But with a small SIP, you can recover the
entire amount with ease. However, this will become a reality only if you keep investing that amount and demonstrate patience. And that brings us to the end of the video. Want to invest to make your home loans interest
