A bank-to-bank buyout usually takes 3 to 5 weeks for salaried residents, extending to 6 to 10 weeks for self-employed or non-resident borrowers. Cash-out refinances run around 3 to 6 weeks, with bank credit approval alone taking 5 to 10 working days. The DLD registration itself is quick, roughly 15 to 20 minutes at a trustee centre.
