But you also need to check whether a Balance transferee is a good option or not??

Following are the points that you need to keep in your mind before going for a BT.

1) Is there a cost involved?

You need to check this thing with your Bank that what will be prepayment charges that the Bank will take from you. Most commonly it ranges from 2% to 4%. These charges can also be negotiated. Do check the prepayment penalty, as it is the most important clause while taking a Balance Transfer.

2) What will be your rate of interest?

You need to check with the Bank that what will be rate of interest that the Bank will charge from you. You need to check that the Emi that you would be paying now should be less then or equivalent to what you are paying to your existing Bank.

3) Processing Fee charge

Do check the processing fee that will be deducted after sanctioning the loan. You must be aware about it. The processing fee sometimes emerges as an hidden charge, so one need to check this too.
