Diminishing Musharakah

Diminishing Musharakah is a product where the bank and the customer jointly purchase the house and the bank rents out its proportionate share in the house to the customer. Simultaneously, through proper sale and purchase.

Musharakah can be applied to various financial operations such as purchases, investment projects and real estate transactions. SIRAT Housing Finance practices Diminishing Musharakah to help customers undertake real estate transactions.

Shariah-based home finance solutions are based on the concept of co-ownership. The customer does not borrow any money from the bank, but becomes a co-owner of the property being constructed, purchased or renovated.

Diminishing Musharakah is a process in which the ownership of the property is transferred to the customer over a fixed period of time. The bank purchases the property with the partnership of the customer. As the customer’s share in the property increases, their monthly payment is reduced subsequently. When the customer has paid all the installments, he becomes the sole owner of the property.
