Every Filipino’s dream is to have a place they would be able to call home. Well almost all people would want that in their lives. This is achievable, depending on the living measures and the standards of living of most people; it comes with a price, however. This would mean hard work, sacrifice, perseverance, and dedication. But what if I tell you that this particular dream is achievable? What if I tell you that applying for a UnionBank Home Loan is just beneath our fingertips?
The Pag-IBIG or Home Developmental Mutual Fund (HDMF) is an institution that provides a chance to Filipino workers to get the dream house they’ve been thinking of. That is one option but in this article, we will be giving full-on details on what the UnionBank Home Loan is; what it can give potential applicants, and of course, details about how you can apply.
In a previous article, we discussed the UnionBank Auto Loan. To give you a brief refresher, the UnionBank Auto Loan gives a chance to Filipino people, well even foreigners, to grab the car of their lives – with minor requirements and of course arrangements.
The UnionBank Home Loan is pretty much the same thing, except, this is for real estate properties. UnionBank allows people to borrow money from them to purchase real estate properties.
If you’ve read our previous article about UnionBank’s Auto/Car Loan , then you already know about the self assessment test. The self assessment test is designed to tailor-fit specific inquiries and wants of clients or applicants to the loan they’re about to get. This kind of filters everyone going to the same direction.
To give you an idea of what it looks like, refer to the image below. It’s not a complex thing; as a matter of fact, you can easily take this assessment and check whether the thing you want is achievable, or if you need to lower your ceiling a bit.
Unlike the Pag-IBIG HDMF fund, the requirements for the UnionBank Home Loan are slightly different and a bit more challenging. In order for you to be eligible for application, you need to abide by these requirements:

; and Credit standing is a great factor Now that you know you’re eligibility, there would be requirements you need to submit of course.
