Afternoon Nancy,

As to whether how much cash is enough, it would depends on the following:
1) how much CPF you have in hand?
2) how much loan are you eligible for?
3) how long will your loan tenure be?
4) are you looking at 4 room or 5 room flat?

Do feel free to contact me for further discussion.

Hi Nancy

We would need to know how much you have in both your CPF ordinary account and how much loan you can get before we could advise whether 100k is sufficient to get a flat in the area you are interested in.

May i know whether you are looking at 4 or 5 room flat?

Basically, you need to pay the followings in cash:

1) COV (cash over valuation)
2) 5% of the valuation price (provided you are eligible for 80% bank loan and have sufficient funds in your CPF accounts for the 15% of the valuation price)
3) valuation report which is $191.90
4) HDB resale application fee $80
5) agent's commission

You can use CPF for your stamp fee and also legal fee.

I would be glad to meet up with you to discuss further. Thanks and hope to hear from you again soon!
