Nepal Rastra Bank mortgage regulations and loan-to-value caps
Central bank policies cap loan-to-value (LTV) ratios at 50% for residential property inside Kathmandu Valley and 60% outside the valley.
Fluctuations in commercial bank base rates directly impact monthly EMI payments for variable-rate home loans.
Demand shifts towards planned housing and apartments
Urban buyers are increasingly prioritizing planned colony developments and high-rise apartments offering 24/7 security, power backup, and dedicated parking spaces over unmanaged plots.
