As to put under your wife's name, it good to consult a banker on her IPA before you proceed.

Hi JJK,

Based on your cash on hand, you could consider a $1.5M property for own stay i.e. $300K downpayment and followed by a 2nd investment property of up to $1M i.e. $400K downpayment.

As your wife does not have a fixed income, it may be harder for her to get a loan even though it's her first property.

Nonetheless, I could link you up with a few bankers to provide indicative approved loan amount based on your household income etc before we commence on the search for the both properties.

Best regards,

Morning,

Are you looking at buying 2 properties at the same time or buying them at staggered timing?
To purchase 2 private properties at the same time, you will need to work things out carefully. We need to look at the amount of CPF monies that both of you have and your income status, to work on the monthly installment and expenses. The advantage of this that both of you can have a property to your own name. Problem is for a family of 4, you might need at least a two or three bedroom unit. Unless both of you have a place to stay, you can try to look at new launch.

To discuss about the possibilities, feel free to give me a call and I will try my best to assist you.

Hi JJK,

Regarding the loan of a second 80%, you can contact me and i can tell you how it can be done.

However, I would strongly advise that you must be comfortable to hold on to the 2 properties when the need arises. The reason why the goverment comes up with all the new rulings, would be to discourage short term investors. However, if everything is good, I got a few suggestions on where you can consider and why.

Feel free to contact me at your convenience.
