Hi, we are married sc, we are thinking of selling our house 5 room first before buying new ec,but we are worried that after selling we will not get enough loan from banks to buy new ec,but if we try to get bank loan now we will not get the best max loan cus we are holding on to our flat.so it' seems like we will never know how much loan we are eligible for unless we sell our flat.is there a way where we are able to know our eligible loan without selling our flat?

Morning,

That worry is quite unnecessary. I can refer my banker to you and he can provide you with the IPA, as of today, on your loan ability, if you were to have you unit sold.

Do feel free to contact me for further discussion.

hi

i will try my best to answer your ques...now u can do an indicative valuation or valuation report on your place...so u know how much u can sell in that sector..once u have that number u will know what's the valuation + Cov component. Afterwhich u can go check with your current bank / HDB how much ur outstanding loan is.

Use the last transacted in the neighbourhood as a rough guide minus the loan outstanding u will have an estimate of how much funds (cash + cpf) u will get back.

Of course it doesnt guarantee that u will sure get a loan from bank. So next step is to use the mortgage to service ratio to find out how much loan u can take.

Assuming combined family income is $10k/mth use a 30 to 35% of this 10k to find out how much u can use to finance the loan. In this instance it will be $3500 to finance any purchase on your end.

Working backwords $3500 can finance approx $900 to $1m depending on the number of years u take on loan.

So now assuming u can take 80% loan based on meeting the HDB buying eligibility, then ur house purchase total quantum will be approx 1 to 1.2m

Banks will also use the same MSR (mortgage service ratio) which i have used above to determine how much they can loan to u...so standard now is abt 40% of family income...but if u calculate based on 30 to 35% then i dont see why banks wont lend unless u have a bad credit history.

U can give me a shout at 90036374  if u need some help..no obligation one...
