Frequently asked questions
What is Islamic Home Finance?
Islamic Home Finance operates like a rent-to-own home purchase plan. The bank buys the property from the seller and leases it to the customer, with the agreement culminating in ownership at the end of the finance tenure.
How is Islamic Home Finance different from conventional mortgages?
In a conventional mortgage, the customer repays the loan with an added interest charged by the bank. In contrast, Islamic Home Finance adheres to sharia principles, where interest (riba) is prohibited. The bank purchases the property on the customer’s behalf and leases it to the customer, with rent determined for each lease renewal period.
What types of Islamic Home Finance does SIB provide?
SIB Islamic Home Finance is based on ijarah principles. Under this arrangement, the bank purchases the property and leases it to the customer for an agreed rent, which is subject to change during each lease renewal period.
Can non-Muslims apply for Islamic Home Finance?
Yes, SIB Home Finance is available to all customer segments, including individuals of any nationality and religion, whether salaried or self-employed.
What is the eligibility criteria for Islamic Home Finance?
Eligibility varies based on the customer’s profile. Visit SIB general terms & conditions for detailed eligibility information based on customer segments and property types.
What happens if I cannot make my payments?
Failure to make payments may result in:
Your account going into arrears, potentially affecting your credit rating and limiting future financing opportunities. Loss of your property, which may be repossessed by the bank.
Is takaful required for Islamic Home Finance?
Yes, both property and life takaful are mandatory for the duration of the finance and must remain valid until the finance is fully settled.
Can I settle my Home Finance early?
Yes, early settlement is permitted, subject to a fee as per the bank’s prevailing charges.
What types of properties are eligible for Islamic Home Finance?
SIB offers finance for:
Ready residential properties (villas, townhouses, or apartments)
Residential and non-residential land
Office spaces (serviced offices)
Retail spaces (shops or retail stores)
How is SIB Home Finance's profit rate applied?
SIB Home Finance is offered at a reducing profit rate.
Flat rate: the profit rate remains constant throughout the finance term and is calculated on the original principal amount.
Reducing rate: the profit is calculated on the outstanding balance, which decreases as settlement/repayments are made.
Reducing rates typically reflect the actual cost of finance more accurately than flat rates, even if the advertised flat rate appears lower.
