Hello,
the traditional rule is that the equity share should be at least 30% of the construction cost/purchase price. Also, that the loan installment should not exceed 40% of the income (preferably only the main earner’s salary).
But how many still stick to these ideal criteria nowadays?

I’d be glad if users shared their percentage figures.

Best regards and have a pleasant Sunday evening

35% equity and 25% of the household income for the monthly payment to the bank.

Good luck

How does this interesting ratio of low equity but a very good percentage payment rate come about? Had no savings for a home before? Or was the purchase made immediately after starting a job?
