Buyers will be encouraged to be more prudent about taking loans and purchasing property, with the LTV for HDB-granted loans lowered to 80%, the interest rate floors raised, and a new 15-month wait-out period imposed on private property 'downgraders' who wish to buy resale flats.

In recent years, Additional Buyer's Stamp Duty (ABSD) has been used as a property cooling measure in Singapore.

There is a 15-month wait out period, unless you are aged 55 and above moving to a 4-room or smaller flat. The existing 30-month wait-out period for those who wish to buy an HDB flat after selling their executive condominium (EC) on the open market still applies.
