Asked by
I am rather confused with the property measures now.

I have a HDB property now. I have satisfied the MOP but still have an existing loan.

Now I wish to buy a private property.

What are the financial issues I need to be aware of?

-loan quantum
-downpayment
-tdsr

What if I settle HDB loan first and then buy a private property? What would be the difference?

Good morning buyer,

As you have an outstanding housing loan, you only be able to loan up to 50% (lower of purchase price/ valuation) - 50% downpayment: 25% cash; 25% CPF OA/ cash. If you manage to clear it before purchasing second property, you will be able to loan up to 80% (20% downpayment: 5% cash; 15% CPF OA/ cash).

Do take note that you will be subject to additional buyer's stamp duty of 7% as a SC and you have to keep a minimum sum of $77.5k in your CPF OA + SA before you can use the excess in the property purchase.

Maybe you can share more information so I can further advise you.

Hope to hear from you soon!

Warmest Regards,

Afternoon,

Since you have existing loan, you can obtain max of 50% loan. 25% down payment must be in cash and balance 25% can utilize CPF, provided that you have set aside the CPF minimum sum required. If you are SC owner, you will need to also prepare 7% ABSD, payable in cash, on top of the standard stamp duty.
However, upon settling the HDB loan prior getting a loan for your second property, you can get max of 80% loan where 5% must be in cash and balance 15% can utilize CPF. Setting aside of CPF minimum sum and ABSD are still required.

Do feel free to contact me for further discussion.
