As one of the international financial centers, Hong Kong's real estate market has always attracted attention. In this thriving market, mortgaging has become an important means for many people to purchase or invest in property.

When borrowers apply for a mortgage loan from a bank, they typically need to provide personal identification, income proof, financial statements, and relevant documentation of the intended collateral.

The bank will assess the collateral to determine its value and the loan-to-value ratio. Typically, banks will engage independent appraisers to conduct the assessment.

If the assessment meets the bank's requirements, the bank will approve the loan application and sign the corresponding loan contract.
