What should I do if the bank's water level is too high and I can't lend money, and I'm about to default?

Taiwan's housing market is booming and banks' water levels have reached warning levels, causing many buyers to face loan difficulties and may default and lose money. Banks will not lend, waiting will not help, and the contract delivery date may come early. If you are unable to get a loan, you should consider applying for a loan from an institution that is not subject to the restrictions of Article 72-2 of the Banking Law. These institutions have preferential interest rates and are not subject to the 30% water level restrictions to meet your funding needs. If a bank loan fails, alternatives should be quickly sought to avoid the risk of default.

The basic misunderstanding about the "grace period" of mortgage loans will lead to a sudden disaster.

When applying for a mortgage, you need to understand the concepts of "grace period" and "extended repayment period." During the grace period, you only need to repay the interest, and after the end, you will also repay the principal and interest. For example, for a 10 million yuan loan, the monthly interest during the grace period is about 15,000 yuan, and the repayment amount after the end is about 42,000 yuan. Extending the repayment period to 40 years will shorten the principal repayment period. Home buyers should evaluate their repayment ability to avoid being deceived by low interest rates, consider additional taxes and decoration costs, and make a rational decision on whether to purchase a home.

Mortgage Nightmare "Penguin Evil" Water Level 72-2 Clause

Driven by the New Qing'an Loan Plan, the direct housing market prices soared, and many banks approached the lending warning line of 28%, resulting in stricter lending. This is because Article 72-2 of the Banking Law limits the loan limit to no more than 30% of the total amount of deposits and financial bonds.
