Hi Sir/Madam

1. It will depend on your Nationality and residency status and the number of property own in Singapore
Under the respective FTAs, Nationals or Permanent Residents of the following countries will be accorded the same Stamp Duty treatment as Singapore Citizens: Nationals and Permanent Residents of Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway or Switzerland and Nationals of the United States of America.
2. Do you intend to take loan for your purchase?
If yes, Before shortlisting project/unit, I will suggest to check your in principal approval of your loan from banker.
I can connect you with reputable banker for this, free of charge and no obligation.
3. Based on $1 mill, and assuming loan is 75%
5% Cash = $50,000
20% Cash/CPF = $200,000
BSD (Cash/CPF) = $24,600
ABSD (Cash/CPF) = might apply
Legal fee = $2,500 (estimated)
Please contact me at (65) 96608508  and I can share you the breakdown for this calculation including timeline.
4. How many bedrooms are you looking at and which area you prefer?

It depends on the type of property you purchase.

Foreigners are liable for 20% ABSD for residential property purchases. There is no ABSD for non-residential property purchases.

However, you may be exempted from this additional tax is you're a Citizen of one of these countries:
1) Switzerland
2) Norway
3) USA
4) Iceland
5) Liechtenstein

Dear Sir/Mdm,

Yes this is true as you will be subjected to an Additional Buyer Stamp Duty of 20% as a foreigner. However, if you are Nationals and Permanent Residents of Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway or Switzerland and Nationals of the United States of America, you will be exempted from this Stamp Duty.

Foreign buyers are still buying residential properties in Singapore despite the stamp duty. Please feel free to contact me so that I can give you an overview of the buying process and why buying a property in Singapore is a good option.
