Hi,
I'm foreigner and planning to buy a Condo in next 6-10 months. Wanted to check how much I need to pay initially for the rest I'd rely on home loan? Lets say if I choose a property having price of $800k.
Also if I choose an under construction property, I need to pay initial amount (including SD etc) and EMI would start of possession of the property?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

For foreigner purchase of residential property, breakdown as follows:
Cash 20%
Stamp Duties & Legal Fees 18%
Max bank loan 80%

For under construction property, it follows progressive payment schedule, ie the mortgage repayments increase gradually.

Which project are you keen on? Thanks and hope to understand your requirements further so to make better recommendations.

Warm regards

Hi Saif,

Thanks for the query!
The initial cash outlay would be as such:
-20% down payment
(5% cash, 15% CPF)
-3% BSD
-15% ABSD
-Misc legal fees

Th under construction properties follow progressive payment scheme; which means you pay a nominal sum till TOP and monthly installment thereafter TOP. This enables you to build your savings in the midst. I understand that you are looking to buy within the next 6-10 months- however, currently in view of the weak market sentiments, prices have visibly fallen by as much as 10% and beyond with high discounts (as high as 31%) on U/C projects. Whether the price will stay buoyant in the future depends on the cooling measures and how the market responds to correction and demand this year. We cannot predict prices next year but are assured of low purchase prices now.

Perhaps you could share more on your requirements, preferences, and finances on hand (cash/ cpf OA sum) for me to be in a better position to advise further. With that in mind, I will be able to conduct a comprehensive financial cash calculations and progressive payments w timeline to asses which residence option will best suit your interest and property portfolio. Best, to take this step by step, with a long term perspective ; % scope of appreciation and capital gains in mind.

To add, there is no agent fees involved, hence my service and consultation comes at no cost ; and you are assured of being walked by step by step on the entire procedural framework.
