Merchants Tips & Advice

Financing is possibly one of the most critical aspects of renovation that concerns homeowners. In this article, we share three simple reasons why CIMB’s new Shariah-compliant Green Renovation-i Financing product, besides being the only Islamic renovation financing in Singapore, is easily your best choice when it comes to renovation loan for Muslims and non-Muslims.

      1. Attractive rates

It doesn’t get as straightforward as this – homeowners can enjoy rates as low as 4.65%* per annum (Effective Profit Rate from 5.29% per annum)! Here’s a simple table to help homeowners compare the interest/profit rates offered by Singapore banks for the standard renovation loan/financing currently:

      2. Enjoy discount up to 0.20%* p.a. by fulfilling the Green Renovation Checklist

Going green is not just a trend, it’s the way forward. As a bank that takes conscious effort in managing and minimizing environmental impacts, CIMB also urges homeowners to partake in the sustainability journey by providing guidance in the form of a 14-item checklist. Simply fulfil at least five items in the checklist to qualify for discount of 0.20%* per annum from the Islamic Standard Renovation rate.

CIMB Green Renovation Checklist covers four key areas where homeowners can achieve sustainability, including Energy & Electricity, Health & Safety, Building Material and Water
