Hi there, turning 35 is a significant milestone, and it's understandable that you're thinking about your future, especially when it comes to property ownership.
While not having CPF contributions from your current employment can be a hurdle, it's not necessarily impossible to own property in Singapore. Here's what you need to know:
Understanding the Situation:
No CPF Contributions from Employer: Your current employment arrangement with your family business doesn't include CPF contributions. This limits your ability to use CPF savings for a down payment or to service a housing loan for an HDB flat.
Limited CPF Savings: You have some CPF savings from past employment or self-contributions, but it might not be enough to cover the required down payment for a property.
Cash Savings: You mentioned having cash savings, which is a positive factor in your favor.
Possible Options:
Private Property:
Cash Purchase: If you have sufficient cash savings, you can consider buying a private property outright without a loan. However, this might require a substantial amount of capital.
Bank Loan: You can apply for a bank loan to finance the purchase of a private property. However, be aware that banks typically require a higher down payment (at least 25%) compared to HDB loans.
Consider Smaller or Less Expensive Properties: If your cash savings are limited, you might need to consider smaller or less expensive private properties to make the purchase feasible.
HDB Flat (Limited Options):
Non-Citizen Spouse Scheme: If you are married to a non-citizen, you can purchase a resale HDB flat under the Non-Citizen Spouse Scheme, even without CPF contributions.
Joint Singles Scheme: If you are single, you might consider buying a resale flat with another eligible single under the Joint Singles Scheme. However, this scheme has specific eligibility criteria.
Explore Other HDB Schemes: You can explore other HDB schemes like the Orphans Scheme or Public Rental Scheme, but these have specific eligibility conditions.
