Fixed Rate Mortgage Scheme
The Fixed Rate Mortgage Scheme introduced by The Hong Kong Mortgage Corporation Limited (HKMC) is now available for application through Shanghai Commercial Bank. By offering a choice of fixed interest rate period of 10, 15 and 20 years, the scheme aims to provide an alternative financing option to homebuyers for mitigating risks arising from interest rate volatility.
Key Features
- The maximum loan amount of each residential mortgage is HK$10 million.
- These mortgage loans can be with or without mortgage insurance under the Mortgage Insurance Programme.
- Borrowers will not be required to meet the stress test against interest rate rise, but the current debt-to-income ratio will still be applicable.
- At the end of the initial fixed-rate period, borrowers may either re-fix the mortgage rate at the then prevailing fixed interest rates or the applicable floating mortgage rate (For reference, the current floating mortgage rate is the Hong Kong Prime Rate minus 2.35% per annum.)
