Yes, you can transfer your home loan at any time during the contract. Generally, there are no clauses preventing the borrower from transferring the loan to another bank. However, you must notify your current bank with a minimum of 10 days' notice. After that, the bank has 10 days to provide the loan data and documents to the new bank where the transfer will be made.
To transfer your home loan, you should contact other banks to obtain proposals that suit your needs. After receiving these proposals, compare them with the current conditions of your loan. At Poupança no Minuto, we help mediate the process and identify the most advantageous proposal for you.
The main advantages of transferring a home loan include: Reduction of the spread, resulting in a decrease in the Nominal Annual Rate (TAN); Extension of the contract term; Change of interest rate type (from fixed to variable, or vice versa); Reduction of required insurance premiums; With a new appraisal, the market value of your home may increase.
The APB protocol is an agreement between most banks that allows a mortgage to be transferred from one bank to another. To do this, you must request the Authorization Term at the bank where the mortgage is registered. This term, duly signed and stamped, must be delivered to the bank to which you wish to transfer the loan.
Costs may vary from bank to bank, but the most common include: Early repayment commission (up to 0.5% of the repaid capital if the interest rate is variable, or up to 2% if fixed); New deed costs; Application opening fees; New property appraisal costs.
