Dear sir/madam,

There is a progressive payment calculator at this link for your reference: https://www.99.co/calculators/progressive-payment

It is quite helpful as it explains the percentage breakdown at different stages and helps you work out the sums required basing on the price or purchase.

Hi Linda,

Sure I can assist on that, have done that for several clients on new launches. May I know which development you are referring to?

I use $1mil for easier illustration

For illustration

Singapore Citizen 1st residential property,
(At booking of unit)

Assuming typical breakdown for example $1mil purchase as follows

5% cash 50,000

20% cash/CPF OA 200,000

3% approx for stamp duties and legal fees 27,100 (can use CPF OA if sufficient)

*Typically the above total amount needs to be ready within 8 to 9 weeks of Booking of Unit*

(During Construction)

Progressive payments as per the schedule. Each construction milestone is approx 6 to 9 months from each other, and developer will call for payment from the buyer. Purchase can pay via cash / CPF OA .

(At TOP of condo, keys collected, can sell or rent out unit). At this point 85% of payment would have been called (ie. 850k required to be paid by TOP date Dec 2024)

After TOP will be CSC, where whole development is officially and legally handed over to all the owners. That is usually 6 to 9 months later after TOP, and the last 15% will be called.

For the full schedule of progressive payments, I can't attach here hence it would be ideal if you could get in touch at 97432395  so I can assist better.

Thanks and look forward to hear from you soon!

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.

-- HDB Yishun BTO 5-RM Sellers, Private Property Upgraders Mr. & Mrs. Koh --

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

He is competent, resourceful and has a pleasant manner to work with. He is the Agent of my choice in dealing with properties and I would highly recommend him to others who would appreciate an agent that takes care and can give the customer a peaceful mind.”
Susana (Buyer)

“Nick is very pro-active in helping us to resolve whatever questions and problems that we encountered. All the issues are settled even before us having to request or ask for a second time.

Hi Linda

Typical progressive payment schedule for a condo unit.
Upon signing Agreement / within 8 weeks immediately after date of Option 20% (includes 5% booking fee paid in cash earlier)
The following progress payments are due after the seller has given one copy of the Agreement to the purchase of his lawyer, and within 14 days of the purchaser receiving notice of completion of the following works:
Foundation work 10%
Reinforced concrete framework 10%
Partition walls 5%
Roofing 5%
Door sub-frames / door frames, window frames, electrical wiring (without fittings), internal plastering and plumbing 5%
Car park, roads and drains serving the housing project 5%
Temporary Occupation Permit 25%
Final Payment Date and/or Completion (might be staggered further depending on when the Certificate of Statutory Completion is issued) 15%

Let’s say you have decided to buy a $1,000,000 condo unit.
Booking fee: 5% x $1,000,000 = $50,000
Sign the sales and purchase agreement. At this stage, need to pay stamp duty and legal fees.
Upon signing the Sales and Purchase Agreement: 15% x $1,000,000 = $150,000
14 days from the completion of foundation works: 10% x $1,000,000 = $100,000
14 days from the completion of reinforced concrete framework: 10% x $1,000,000 = $100,000
14 days from the completion of partition walls: 5% x $1,000,000 = $50,000
14 days from the completion of roofing: 5% x $1,000,000 = $50,000
14 days from the completion of door sub-frames / door frames, window frames, electrical wiring (without fittings), internal plastering and plumbing: 5% x $1,000,000 = $50,000
14 days from the completion of the carpark, roads and drains servicing the housing project: 5% x $1,000,000 = $50,000
Upon receipt of Temporary Occupation Period and collection of keys: 25% x $1,000,000 = $250,000
Upon legal completion of the sale: 15% x $1,000,000 = $150,000
Please contact me at (65) 96608508  and I can share the excel file breakdown for this calculation including timeline.

May I know which project that you intend to buy?
Some projects are offering special schemes which might be different from the above normal progressive payment
