What is Standard Chartered MortgageOne about?

MortgageOne is an All-In-One account that integrates your savings, payroll, current and mortgage accounts into one convenient transactional account. Financing your new home purchase is now more flexible! 

Whether it is under construction or a completed property, MortgageOne will be able to finance up to 90% of the property value, for up to 35 years or up to 70 years (whichever is earlier). There is also a competitive refinancing rate for your current home loan.

What interest rates can I get with Standard Chartered MortgageOne?

The interest rate you will get is a floating rate at Base Rate with a spread that covers all risks, costs and some margins. 

Nonetheless, MortgageOne offers some of the best bank mortgage rates in the market, as well as flexible repayment up to 35 years or 70 years old (whichever is earlier). 

Can I make advance payments or withdrawals from Standard Chartered MortgageOne?

Yes, you can! MortgageOne provides the flexibility to make advance payments and withdrawals which can be made at any time with no notice and additional charges required. 

However, it is important to note that the total amount you can withdraw is dependent on the tenure and facility limit available. You can also enjoy convenient banking via ATM facilities, chequebook, phone and internet banking.

How do I pay for my instalments?

There are a few easy ways. You can either pay via Interbank GIRO transfer, Standing Instruction or at Standard Chartered's credit deposit machines. 

Here's a useful tip - you can consolidate all your deposits such as income, bonus and life savings into the MortgageOne account. This will make repayments much more convenient for you! Using the MortgageOne account, you can also make an 'Excess Payment'. 

Excess payment is a very useful feature where you can pay extra on top of your standard instalments to reduce your total tenure and interest repayments, while also giving you the option to withdraw those payments easily for emergencies.

What are the fees and charges I should know?

• Setup Fee of RM200
• Processing Fee between RM50 to RM200, depending on your total approved loan amount range

Any other benefits I can enjoy from the MortgageOne home loan?

Redraw Facility – withdraw excess cash paid into your home loan account for personal use at any time without restrictions and penalty.

Low Start option – for the first two years, you will be allowed to pay a lower instalment so that you can spend your spare cash on making your new house a home. This option is ideal if you feel the pinch after paying for the down payment and other miscellaneous charges.

Payment Holiday – give your monthly repayments a vacation once in a while! This option allows you to defer your payments for a portion of time for some financial breathing space. This is not allowed during the first two years of the Low Start option.

Priority Banking privilege - If you're a Standard Chartered Priority Banking customer, lower interest rates are available for you. 

Do I need an insurance policy?

A Fire Insurance policy is compulsory. 

However, a Mortgage Reducing Term Assurance (MRTA) is optional but highly advised. You can also sign up for optional home insurance, which is underwritten by MSIG.

Who can apply for this conventional term home loan?

Any individuals (Malaysians and non-Malaysians) aged 21 years and above, not exceeding 65 years old at the time of application can apply for this Standard Chartered home loan.
