Hi, I am planning to sell my 4rm flat to reap the cash profits and look into buying a resale when the market cool down. I have alternative stay while waiting.
We will have abt 500k back in cpf. If the resale house is 488k, do we have the option to take a bank loan (low interest than hdb loan) so to let our cpf gain at higher interest or hdb will wipe out everything and we will start from $0 again to build our cpf?

Hi,

I would be most glad to assist you further and please feel free to let me know if you need any assistance. Have a good day ahead. By the way, if you are using HDB loan again for the next purchase, then cpf will be wipe out but for bank loan it will entirely up to your decision on the cpf usage. Also, you be only getting back 50% of the sale proceeds should you use a 2nd HDB loan.

Hi,

For bank loan, if you are able to and qualify for the max 75% loan, you need not fully utilize and wipe out the CPF OA available. The minimum requirement is a 5% cash outlay (and COV if any), and 20% cpf OA for the downpayment, so you can keep some CPF OA and the interest build up for retirement. However the downside is a higher monthly mortgage and also cash may be required for the monthly mortgage.

I have helped various clients to transit smoothly and sold their properties. Happy to share the best optimal approach. May I have more info and requirements about your plans so to make better recommendations? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.

Warm Regards,

-- EC Sellers, Private Property Buyers Dr. Chan & Ms. Xie --

I would like to compliment Mr Ivan Ng for his professional work and effort.I sent my first post in Jan 2019 and Ivan replied promptly, so I have decided to contact Ivan for follow up. My EC was not ready for sale due to MOP (another 3 months from Jan) at that time and Ivan was able to give me advices on how to proceed from there. Initially we have decided to try to write to HDB for early sale but since it was only 3 months left, eventually we waited for another 3 months while we looked for our next property. Ivan was able to arrange for new property showroom appointment at a timely manner while helping us to list for our EC for sale. We were a bit worried when our EC sale time was longer than expected due to trade war, but Ivan was able to reassure us that our EC would sell. By November, he managed to secure a buyer for our EC. Thank you.

I would like to express my appreciation to Ivan Ng for his excellent work. Ivan is a dedicated, client-focused, patient and sincere agent. Throughout the whole process of selling and looking for our next property, he has always acted very professionally that makes my wife and I feel at ease and assured. Ivan is not a pushy and hard sales agent. Ivan listens and understands our needs and carefully guided us through. We are fortunate to have Ivan as our agent. Thank you Ivan. Read More

As a guide, you are allowed to make full use of the 75% loan to value (subject to approval, 5% cash as deposit and the rest of 20% either in cash or CPF. There is no maximum limit on how much you can reserved in you CPF OA after purchasing a new flat. The limit only applies to HDB loan which is $20k (the maximum reserved can be retained in the OA) for each person. I am specialised in both HDB and private property transactions Do contact me at 93375051  for a free adn non obligatory discussion on this.

As per your question , yes you can choose to borrow from bank .

How much you qualify to borrow will largely be determine by the hdb owners income and age , and the subsequent HDB valuation .

However , hdb buyers using bank loan will need at least 25% downpayment or more . The maximum loan amount is 75% .

Kindly contact me joanne chia at hp 8333 3327  for a no obligations chat for your property needs.

My charges are 1% for exclusive selling rights to your property, or 2% for open listing.
