5 Installment Plans
Bankole offers flexible installment payment plans subject to eligibility. The following terms apply:
- Applications must be submitted with all required documentation including a valid land survey, proof of ownership, and identity documents.
- Approval is at Bankole's sole discretion following document vetting. Submission of an application does not guarantee approval.
- Upon approval, a formal Installment Agreement will be issued and must be signed before production commences.
- Payment terms, interest rates (if applicable), and schedule durations will be clearly specified in your Installment Agreement.
- The home remains the property of Bankole until full payment is received. A lien consistent with the Secured Transactions in Movable Assets Act (STMAA) 2017 may be registered.
- Missed or late payments may result in suspension of production, additional fees, or legal recovery action as outlined in your Installment Agreement.
Failure to maintain installment payments may result in repossession of the structure in accordance with the STMAA 2017 and the terms of your signed agreement.
