Real estate financing has multiple forms, and its ruling varies according to these forms. Financing does not have a single ruling, and the conditions mentioned are not sufficient to clarify the reality of the financing. There is no objection to a diminishing interest rate—if it is in a permissible sale—provided that the installments are known in amount and term. Likewise, there is no objection in principle to requiring a known down payment, a specified financing period, and the property being officially registered and eligible for mortgage.
