I received approval for my credit application. How long is this agreement valid?

Once agreement has been obtained from one of our partners, you have three weeks to sign your credit contract. After this period, your agreement is no longer valid and our advisors would then be obliged to submit a new file.

I am married, can I borrow alone or does my wife have to sign the credit contract with me?

If you are married under the legal community regime or without a marriage contract, you cannot borrow alone and in this case, your wife or husband must sign the credit contract with you. If you are married under the regime of separation of property, you can sign a credit contract alone.

What are the consequences of failing to repay my loan?

If you do not pay two monthly payments, your lending organization has a legal obligation to cancel your credit contract and request your registration from the National Bank of Belgium. In this case, you will no longer be able to borrow on the credit market until your dispute is resolved.

What is an authentic act?

This is an act generally drawn up by a notary or in certain cases a bailiff. An authentic act is enforceable against third parties, that is to say that third parties or people who are not parties to the agreement cannot question the existence of the act. To take out a loan/mortgage credit, you must necessarily go before a notary because the deed of sale and the loan/mortgage credit contract are notarial acts.

What is mortgage discharge?

First, let us clarify that the mortgage is the guarantee which allows a bank to cover itself in the event that the borrower is no longer able to repay his loan. In fact, the borrower could not sell the property without obtaining approval and the release of the mortgage. The bank has the right to cancel the credit in the event of non-payment, to have the property sold during legal proceedings and to recover the balance of its debt from the proceeds of the construction of the building. On the other hand, in the event of early repayment of your mortgage loan, the notary is required to request the release of the mortgage. Release is a legal act where the bank certifies that the borrower has fully repaid their loan. This release is done by notarial deed which therefore generates notary fees. In practice: the release of a mortgage is only essential if you decide to sell the building. Otherwise, just let time pass to get the 30-year period to expire. In this case the mortgage will disappear automatically but this time without any costs.

Can you refinance a current mortgage loan to benefit from a better rate?

This is a possible operation but it necessarily involves costs. We advise you to redeem your loan/mortgage credit. We can study your file and offer you a better interest rate and thus buy back your current loan/mortgage credit. Contact our advisors for this purpose.
