You must have heard the term ’10:90′ plan multiple times if you are buying a new property.
In a simple explanation, on the 10:90 plan, you have to pay only 10% amount of the total cost of the property at the time of the booking and pay 90% of the amount at the time of possessions. This is the ideal plan for real investment in India.
The builders often offer CLP (Construction Linked Method) payment method. In the CLP payment method, the homebuyers are liable to make payments based on the progress of construction. For example, 15% of the amount must be paid at the time of booking, 20% when lift and the rest should be paid at the time of the possession.
What are the benefits of the 10:90 plan?
• A minimum amount is required for purchasing a property.
• The property can be resold before possession.
• Save interest on the home loan.
• Online booking options are available.
• Minimal documentation is required.
What are the drawbacks of the 10:90 plan?
• This plan is for new launch projects.
• Cross-check the background of the builder.
