Home finances in Pakistan
Market overview
Pakistan's home finance market is small but growing — total mortgage book is under PKR 250 billion (vs ~PKR 30 trillion in India), reflecting historically high rates and weak housing finance infrastructure. Major lenders include HBL, MCB, UBL, Standard Chartered Pakistan, Meezan Bank (Islamic), and the state-backed House Building Finance Company (HBFC). SBP cut its policy rate from 22% in 2024 to 12% by early 2026, dramatically improving affordability.
Why 16.5% is the typical rate
16.5% reflects a typical KIBOR + 3-4% spread for a salaried borrower at 70% LTV in early 2026, after SBP's easing cycle from peak 22%. Islamic Murabaha rates run similar. The high spread is structural — Pakistan banks demand large risk premia in a high-NPL housing market.
Tax & regulatory notes
Mortgage interest is deductible from taxable income for owner-occupied homes up to PKR 2 million per year (Finance Act 2022 provision). Stamp duty varies by province: Punjab 3%, Sindh 3% (with 1% women discount in some districts), KP 2%. CVT (Capital Value Tax) of 2% may apply on transfer. SBP's Mera Pakistan Mera Ghar program (renewed periodically) offers subsidized rates for first-time low-income borrowers.
