Top 5 Reasons Home Loan Applications Get Rejected

By Nilesh Kute — Home Loan Consultant
Home loan rejections can be frustrating, but understanding the root causes allows you to fix deficiencies before re-applying. ### 5 Common Reasons: 1. **Low CIBIL Score or Delinquent History**: Scores below 650 or past defaults flag high risk. 2. **High Existing Debt Obligations**: If your total monthly EMIs exceed 50% of your net monthly income (FOIR), lenders may hesitate to extend further credit. 3. **Property Legal or Valuation Issues**: Title disputes, unapproved building plans, or valuation shortfalls by bank panel valuers. 4. **Unstable Employment / Income Proof**: Frequent job switches or insufficient ITR documentation for self-employed individuals. 5. **Incomplete or Inconsistent Paperwork**: Mismatches between application details and submitted documents.
