For new PR in Singapore, you are only eligible to purchase non-landed private residential units. Given your timeline to move in by early 2024, you can consider to look at units sometime in Q2 as you will need to finalise you purchase by Q3 in order to have time for renovations and move in by early 2024.

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 13 years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

Hi,

1) I understand the urgency of getting a house you own.
2) However, it is also important to get hold of the PR status first before placing an offer.
3) The ABSD (Additional Buyer Stamp Duty) for a foreigner is 30%, whereas ABSD for a PR is 5%. This is really a big sum difference when come to buying a property.
4) In the current market situation, not many sellers are willing to wait till your PR status is ready.
5) If you are still not sure which area to start with, you may start your viewing activities now.
6) This is because buying a property is really a big deal for anyone. There is no harm to do more comparisons before making your final decision.

Hi Sir/Madam

1. I think you can consider to look once you get your PR approved as some units will be selling with tenancy until end 2023

2. Do you intend to take loan for your purchase?
If yes, Before shortlisting project/unit, I will suggest to check your in principal approval of your loan from banker.
I can connect you with reputable banker for this, free of charge and no obligation.

3. Based on $1 mill, and assuming loan is 75%
5% Cash = $50,000
20% Cash/CPF = $200,000
BSD (Cash/CPF) = $24,600
ABSD (Cash/CPF) = might apply
Legal fee = $2,500 (estimated)
Please contact me at (65) 96608508  and I can share the breakdown for this calculation including timeline.

4. How many bedrooms are you looking at and which area you prefer?
I have current price list, promo of every projects in Singapore and will be glad to advise you
