Hi,
I think you are referring on how to apply for a house loan, correct me if I'm wrong.
There are 2 types of loan available for HDB flat purchase:
(a) HDB loan
(b) Bank loan
Private purchase is only via bank.
Although there are 2 types of loan available for HDB. HDB loan is only meant for Singapore Citizen. Thus one of the co-purchaser must be a Singapore Citizen to qualify to apply for it.
The actual name for HDB loan is HDB Loan Eligibility (HLE). You may apply this via HDB web site:
https://www.hdb.gov.sg/cs/infoweb/residential/financing-a-flat-purchase/housing-loan-from-hdb/hdb-loan-eligibility-application
It is easy for bank loan. Simpliest way is to walk into the bank and ask for a mortgage specialist.
Our process is slightly different:
(1) First thing is check thru' all local banks; DBS, UOB & OCBC for the mortgage rate.
(2) Follow by some of the foreign bank to see whether there are any special offer.
(3) Once we determine the bank we wish to engage, we will first do a verbal IPA (In-Principle Approval). In general, an IPA last for 30~90 days dependent on different bank's practice.
(4) Next is to confirm property wanted to purchase.
(5) (a) HDB flat: HDB will provide the valuation. Bank will honour HDB valuation and will provide the bank loan as long as our loan amount fulfilled the MSR requirement. We have to provide all income document as per needed by MAS.
(b) Private purchase:
(i) New project- The bank will honour the selling price as long as our income fulfilled TDSR requirement. Same here, we will have to submit our income document as per required by MAS.
(ii) Resale - The bank will need to do a valuation (you have to pay for this valuation) before confirm the loan amount. After that, submit document and that is.
(6) (a) HDB will inform when the bank need to release the loan, usually is on the completion day.
(b) Lawyer will inform the bank when to release the loan to developer for new project, because this is progressive payment.
For resale, the loan release also on completion day. Lawyer will liaise with bank to release the fund.
