Hi Pro,

Both of my wife and me are PR (Malaysian). We stay in JB, thinking to invest in small condo in SG. Here is the scenario:

1. Our combined ordinary account has 60k, increasing 40k/year, so we will have 80k this year end and 120k next year end.

2. Currently we use most of our salary to repay my JB homeloan(4.45% interest), if we just pay the minimum amount, we have have SGD2500/month to spare.

3. Cash in hand, around 30k

Question,
1. Are we in a position to invest in small condo, maybe next year end?
2. If I plan to invest in a 600k condo, how much cpf and cash do we need to prepare?
3. If the rental from the condo is sufficient to pay for the installment?
4. How easy is the rent out a small condo? How much is the processing cost (agent fee, and any other fees?)

Thanks in advance for your kind input!

Hi,

To address your investment concern in a nutshell- as long as your purchase a property in the RIGHT location (good connectivity and amenities) at the RIGHT property, you will always stand to benefit. Allow me to run you through various options to see which suits your finances and preference best.

To kickstart,
(1) We may need to catch up and speak more in details to understand what exactly you are looking for in your ideal home.

(2) Run you through the financial cash flow calculations
(Utilization of Cash/ CPF and breakdown of payments)

Go over progressive payments and timeline of payments

(3) Have your In Principal Approval (IPA) assessed and done-
By my network of bankers at no cost.

(4) Once loan has been approved, financial calculations are well understood- I will succinctly propose developments and units to view for your consideration.

(5) Once you have identified your ideal unit, I will step in and help you negotiate for the best possible deal.

A transaction report will be made available to you prior offer stage, so that you can study the transaction caveats of the development and surrounding properties for a greater in depth analysis of the market to ensure you are indeed making the RIGHT offer! A comprehensive customized price analysis chart illustration specific to your chosen property will also be provided to aid in your understanding.

(6) Following that, post deal paperwork will be handled by myself. I will also coordinate and guide you on the legal procedures for the purchase.

As I specialize and am very active in the private property market, I would like to extend my services to represent you in your purchase which does not make you liable for any fees and essentially means that you pay nothing for my service and consultation but are assured of me handling the entire technicalities of the purchase to best protect and maximize your interest.

From the above illustration, purchasing a property is an extremely organized, step by step and timely process and, it will be of huge added advantage to you if you engage a realtor with years of experience and knowledge - because that will ultimately translate to finesse and a smooth process.

If you are comfortable with working with me for your real estate needs, I will be most glad to render my services, advise and expertise accordingly and go over all the procedures and regulations involved so that your purchase intention can be taken to the next level.
