Hi,

I’m a 30-year old single, with gross salary of more than $4,000 per month. I currently own a 4-room HDB, with my parents as the essential occupiers. As my parents had taken HDB loan twice, I’m financing the flat via bank loan.

I’m keen on upgrading to a 5-room or EA, or even the possibility of getting a private property. Through my research, I find the following:

- since my parents have taken HDB loan twice and with them listed as my occupiers, I will not be eligible for HDB loan;

- since I have an outstanding bank loan, I will only be granted a loan of 50% of the purchase/valuation price

Hence, considering I do not have much cash in hand, I would like to know if it’s feasible for me to proceed on upgrading, which means I’ve to fork out 50% via my own pockets? Is there no way for me to be eligible for HDB loan? Thanks.

Morning Zahida,

Based on your income status, upgrading to 5 room or EA would be more applicable for your case. This will allow you to get 80% loan from bank for the upcoming purchase. As you are currently under 35, it's essential to add your parents in as occuiper. From your gievn case, it's quite unlikely that you will be able to get HDB loan until you are able to purchase under single scheme.

Do feel free to contact me if you require further assistance.

HI Zahida,

Since you are upgrading, you would need to sell first so that you will be eligible for 80% loan.

Feel free to contact me and I will explain to you in details what are the possible steps to take next.

Thank you.
