Hi,

In this case the Cash over Valuation COV is 95k. If your loan amount attainable and CPF OA available can cover the 630k + stamp duties of approx 20k, there won't be any cash top up for the flat's purchase price. Just wondering if the flat is worth this amount of COV outlay?

May I have more info and requirements about your plans so to make better recommendations? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.

Warm Regards,

-- EC Sellers, Private Property Buyers Dr. Chan & Ms. Xie --

I would like to compliment Mr Ivan Ng for his professional work and effort.I sent my first post in Jan 2019 and Ivan replied promptly, so I have decided to contact Ivan for follow up. My EC was not ready for sale due to MOP (another 3 months from Jan) at that time and Ivan was able to give me advices on how to proceed from there. Initially we have decided to try to write to HDB for early sale but since it was only 3 months left, eventually we waited for another 3 months while we looked for our next property. Ivan was able to arrange for new property showroom appointment at a timely manner while helping us to list for our EC for sale. We were a bit worried when our EC sale time was longer than expected due to trade war, but Ivan was able to reassure us that our EC would sell. By November, he managed to secure a buyer for our EC. Thank you.

I would like to express my appreciation to Ivan Ng for his excellent work. Ivan is a dedicated, client-focused, patient and sincere agent. Throughout the whole process of selling and looking for our next property, he has always acted very professionally that makes my wife and I feel at ease and assured. Ivan is not a pushy and hard sales agent. Ivan listens and understands our needs and carefully guided us through. We are fortunate to have Ivan as our agent. Thank you Ivan Read More

Hi,

From the above description, the Cash-Over-Valuation is $95,000. You will not be able to cover this Cash amount from your CPF.

Also, do take note that this is not including the Cash downpayment towards the purchase. i.e if you're taking Bank loan, 5% to be in Cash.

I am experienced and well-versed in both HDB and private transactions. I will be able to assist you in your property plans.

Should you need require further assistance in matters relating to property, please contact me at my mobile 9748 6305  . I will be happy to assess and share with you the possibilities for you in the current market.

Thank you.

Best regards,

HI,

I assume you are the buyer in this case, and the property mentioned is HDB flat.
Property valuation is $630k, the agreed purchase price is $725k
Cash needed would be $725k-$630k = $95k.

1) If you are SC, assuming taking HDB loan, and able to receive 90% loan. 10% of property value = $630k, meaning your max loan is 90% of $630k = $567k.
Your OA can cover this portion; left with $7k. Buyer stamp duty = (3% of $630k)-$5,400 = $13,500. You will need to top up cash of $6,500.
Than you would need $95K + option fee (max $5k) + $6,300, which is $106,300 in cash only.

2) If you are not eligible to HDB loan, and taking loan from bank, which is 75% of property value ($630k).
$95k + (5% of property = $31,500) + $6,300 (stamp duty) + $126,000 (20%) = $258,800.

3) If you are purchasing a private property, the calculation will be the same as (2).

Do note the above calculation didn't include, resale application (HDB), microfilm and so on, legal fee and other miscellaneous etc.

Hope the above answers your main concerns, but if there are more queries, please feel free to contact me at 90110636  , or email: ling.ck7@gmail.com if more information is needed.
I'll be glad to assist.
