Why this matters

Your bank is counting on you not checking.

BDO Unibank is one of the largest banks in the Philippines and a popular choice for housing loans — offering competitive fixed rates, flexible loan purposes, and a nationwide branch network that makes the process accessible for most Filipino borrowers. Whether you're purchasing a ready-for-occupancy unit, refinancing an existing loan, or tapping your home equity for renovations, BDO's housing loan product covers a wide range of needs. As a Nook partner bank, BDO offers a 1-year fixed rate of 6.00% p.a., which is significantly lower than the 7–10% many homeowners are currently paying on older loans. You can learn more about how these rates compare over time in our BDO home loan interest rate guide for 2026.

To qualify for a BDO housing loan, you'll generally need a minimum monthly income of ₱50,000 and a debt-to-income ratio of no more than 40%. BDO accepts a wide range of employment types — including private employees, government workers, BPO professionals, OFWs and seafarers, self-employed individuals, and licensed professionals — making it one of the more inclusive lenders in the market. Typical approval takes around 30 days when your documents are complete and in order. For a full breakdown of what you'll need to prepare, see our complete BDO housing loan requirements guide.

When you apply through Nook, you get more than just access to BDO's rates — you get a dedicated mortgage broker who prepares your documents, coordinates with the bank on your behalf, and makes sure your application is positioned for the best possible outcome. Nook's service is completely free to borrowers; we're compensated by the bank, not you. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer or an existing borrower looking to refinance at a lower rate, Nook simplifies the entire process from pre-qualification to approval. Please note that interest rates are subject to change — always verify current rates with BDO or through Nook before making any financial decisions.
