My partner and I (both in early 30s, SC/SPR) combined income is around 8K. We are thinking of purchasing our first apartment. We would like to seek the advice of the professionals here for the followings:
1) We are unsure if we should be going for a hdb/private property as our first property since we belong to the "sandwiched class". I am personally more inclined towards a private property and would like to know the financial commitment.
2) How is our bonuses (assuming to be around at least 20% of our annual income) going to affect the amount of loan we can take? We have no long term debt.
3) We are renting an apartment at present but will be terminating the lease once we get our own apartment. So is the existing rental commitment being considered towards the amount of loan we can apply?
4) Roughly how much loan can we take, given a loan tenure of 25 years and based on other information above?
We would appreciate the response of all gurus. Thanks.
