For a lot of Filipinos who are already way past the infatuation phase, Pag IBIG only means one thing: Housing loan.
Or more accurately, a key to escape the monthly grind of paying rent and making one’s landlord richer.
The problem, however, is not that we don’t know Pag IBIG housing loan exists.
Rather, most Filipinos are too scared or too intimidated to ask the right questions that they end up putting off their plans of having their own property.
As a result, Filipinos still don’t have a place they can call their own.
1. Make Sure you have 24 months of contribution
A Pag IBIG Fund member with 24 months worth of contributions at the time of application is qualified to have the housing loan. New members who have been paying contributions for at least 12 months can also complete the required amount of contribution through lump-sum payment.
2. Not more than 65 years old at the time of loan application and not more than 70 years old at loan maturity.
The maximum loan period is 30 years. For senior applicants, your loan period is determined by how close your age is to the maximum age of 70. For example, if you’re 50 years old at the time of application, your maximum loan period is only 20 years because you’ll be turning 70 by the time the period ends.
3. Have no existing Pag-ibig Housing loan, or settle the existing loan
Has no outstanding Pag IBIG multi-purpose or calamity loan either as principal borrower or co-borrower
