Your Dream Home

Tell us about the property

Property details let us calculate the future cost after inflation, the exact down payment needed, and your monthly savings target to get there.

Your answer determines which calculations, inputs, and outputs are relevant to your plan
How this works: We'll inflation-adjust the current property price over your timeline, compute the down payment gap, and tell you the exact monthly SIP needed to accumulate it.
Self-funded plan: Since you're not taking a loan, we'll calculate how much your existing savings will grow, determine any funding gap, and compute the monthly SIP needed to cover the full purchase price.

Auto-filled based on property type — adjust if you have firmer estimates Covers stamp duty, registration, brokerage, legal fees, and — for new/under-construction property — GST and interiors, all on top of the base property price

Typical range: Metro cities 8–10% · Tier-2 cities 5–7% Used to calculate future property cost at time of purchase
Includes acquisition & setup costs · Rounded to nearest ₹10,000 · Updates as you adjust timeline and appreciation
A higher down payment = lower EMI and better lender rates
We compound this amount over the timeline — its future value reduces the monthly SIP needed
Your savings will compound — we use this to project their future value at purchase date

Your Financial Picture

Commitments, savings & goals

A complete financial picture ensures the plan is safe — not just possible. We check that this home purchase won't strain your other life goals.

Why this matters: We calculate your real EMI capacity by subtracting existing commitments. We also check if this home purchase competes with goals like education or retirement.
Deducted from income to compute available EMI capacity for this home loan
Longer tenure = lower EMI but more total interest paid over the loan life. Enter any whole number of years up to your eligible maximum.
Check HDFC / SBI / ICICI for latest rates. Current rates: 8.35%–9.5% (Apr 2025).
Blank = 60% of weighted income minus existing EMIs (FOIR benchmark)
CIBIL score directly affects loan eligibility and interest rate offered
Emergency Fund & Competing Goals
Whether loan or self-funded, a home purchase without a buffer carries significant financial risk
Co-applicant
Add a co-applicant (joint loan)
A co-borrower's income significantly increases your loan eligibility and may reduce the interest rate
Joint loan tip: A co-applicant's income is added to yours for eligibility. Female co-applicants often get a 0.05–0.1% rate concession. All fields below are required for accurate joint calculation.
Name must match government-issued ID
Banks require co-applicants to be close blood relatives or spouse
Added to your income to compute the combined loan eligibility
Female co-applicants often receive 0.05–0.10% lower rates
Co-applicant's age may cap the maximum loan tenure
Employment type affects how lenders weight the co-applicant's income

Your Income

Your income & investment capacity

Select your income type(s) and enter monthly amounts. Different income types are weighted differently by lenders — we apply industry-standard FOIR weights.

FOIR methodology: Lenders typically allow up to 60% of weighted monthly income for EMI obligations. Income types are weighted: Salaried 100%, Business/Self-employed 80%, Rental 70%, Agricultural 50%.
Self-funded income context: Since there's no loan involved, FOIR and EMI calculations don't apply. Your income figure here helps assess whether your monthly SIP target is manageable relative to your earnings.
