Hi,

To qualify for HDB loan, you need to be a citizen with income not exceeding 5K/month. If you take bank loan, the 20% downpayment will be (5% cash + 15% CPF), it is HDB policy, so can't be changed. You can however use CPF to pay stamp duties and conveyancing fees, and also monthly mortgage repayments. Thanks and hope to assist with your purchase plans further.

Warm Regards,

Hi,

To be eligible for a HDB loan, your monthly income should not exceed $5k. As for downpayment, the 5% Cash + 15% CPF is a rule throughout the system.

With this question, I presume you are a first timer. In this new experience with weak market sentiments, it may very well be apt to have yourself walked by step by step in this process to ensure you are not shortchanged in view of your unfamiliarity. This is a buyer's market of weak market sentiments. The question always lies in HOW to leverage on it to get the best possible deal.

Perhaps we could speak further to discuss more comprehensively the crux of your requirements and preferences. Following our discussion, I will be in a better position to conduct an accurate financial projection and breakdown of cash flow for your purchase to narrow down & explore the possible options accordingly at no obligation.

I will guide you through the entire purchase- from shortlisting, to negotiation, to establishing loan matters and working out finances (cash/cpf/progressive payment), paperwork, sorting legal matters, providing you with recent up to date transaction caveats for benchmark pricing as well as furnish you with a customized sales report & indicative valuations.

Evening,

If you are SC, income of less than $5k and do not own any private property, you will be eligible for HDB loan. With HDB loan of 90% max, the down payment will be 10% via CPF.

Do contact me further should you require my assistance.

Good evening buyer,

do take note that you have to be a Singaporean to be eligible under the single singapore citizen scheme.

In order to be qualify for HDB loan or CPF housing grant, your income must not exceed $5k and you can't purchase any flats larger than 5rm flat.

Whereas if you are taking bank loan, the 5% cash downpayment must be fully paid by cash. You can't pay this with CPF OA funds.

Hope my explanation helps!

Feel free to contact me if you need any assistance or advice in your property purchase.

Hear from you soon!

Warmest Regards,
