Hi,
1) There are different buyer stamp duties for different residential statuses. Details for buying 1st residential property are as follow:
(a) Singapore Citizen (SC): ~3% buyer stamp duty for a property at or below S$1M.
(b) Singapore Permanent Resident (SPR): ~3% buyer stamp duty for a property at or below S$1M. Additional Buyer stamp duty (ABSD) of 5%.
(c) Foreigner (FR): ~3% buyer stamp duty for a property at or below S$1M. Additional Buyer stamp duty (ABSD) of 30%.
2) Regardless of your residential status, the loan amount and interest are the same. The assessment criteria of how much you could loan are the same as well.
3) Let me use a property of S$1M for illustration, assuming your income level is able to loan 75%:
(a) 25% ($250k) down payment; 5% must be in cash. The 20% can be in cash and/or CPF.
(b) Legal fees of ~$3,000
(c) Stamp duty as in (1)
4) The TDSR is the assessment formula to determine how much you could loan. Age, income level, number of credit cards holding & outstanding loans are the major factor to determine how much you could loan. This guideline is governed by MAS (Monetary Authority of Singapore), thus all banks are using the same assessment.
But some banks might be able to provide a higher loan amount depending on their risk factor. The difference should be minor. The percentage of loans will remain somewhere at 75%.
5) I had run a preliminary assessment if you are around 40yrs old earning a monthly income of at least S$6,850. You should be able to get a loan of around $750k.
Hope the above answer your main concerns, but if there are more query, please feel free to contact me at
