Why Chandigarh right now

Budget planning

Decide your budget with a home-loan EMI in mind — most banks fund 75–90% of the value, so keep 10–25% for down payment plus 7–9% for stamp duty, registration and brokerage-free costs. Use the 24Bricks EMI calculator to see what a loan in Chandigarh costs per month.

Documents to check before you pay

  • Title deed, chain of ownership and encumbrance certificate

  • Society NOC, maintenance dues and property-tax receipts
  • Carpet area vs super built-up area in the agreement
