Hi Mr. Peter,

For a 2 bedroom condo, SPR-SPR household holding an existing HDB, using $1m as a purchase price, the breakdown is as follows:
1) 5% cash
2) 15% CPF
3) 80% bank loan (if eligible)
4) Buyer Stamp Duties of about 3%
5) Additional Buyer Stamp Duties of 10%

and you have to sell your HDB within 6 months of moving in to condo.

For a 2nd-hand condo, typically the units are more spacious but the maintenance may not be as ideal. For newer projects, the facilities are more unique and up-to-date but units could be smaller, and it is more likely to sell at a better price since there is a longer lease tenure left.

It also depends on location, proximity to amenities etc. It will be great if I could speak to you to understand your requirements better, and recommend some ideal projects. Thank you!

Warm Regards,
Ivan Ng
