Business loan procedures are simpler.
To apply for a provident fund loan, the borrower must first submit the loan application form and application materials to the personal loan department, and need income proof and other materials; Then the personal loan department reviews the loan application and makes on-the-spot investigation, and then reports it to the loan review committee for approval. Then the entrusted bank informs the borrower to open a repayment reserve account and sign a loan contract and a guarantee contract with it, and then the borrower goes through the registration formalities of the collateral or pledge right. After these procedures are completed, the personal loan department allocates loan funds and the entrusted bank issues loans. The procedure is complicated.
Commercial loan means that after the borrower signs the house purchase contract, it directly provides the relevant materials to the relevant bank agency or the developer who has signed a cooperation agreement with the bank, and then the bank inquires about the personal credit record and reviews the relevant materials, which can be processed if it meets the access conditions, saving time and effort.

However, in the choice of specific loan methods, second-hand housing buyers should combine their own situation and the respective advantages of the two loan methods and strive to choose a suitable and economical loan method.
