Hi Mr Chan

You would need to set up aside 20% of the purchase price as well as 7% ABSD first, before some portion is being paid out by CPF.

Pls feel free to let me know if you need any assistance. Cheers!

Hi Mr Chan,

In another scenario:

Assuming that the property is $1.5million and you are eligible for 80% loan.

1. 20% Downpayment (5% in cash, $75K + 15% cash/CPF, $225K) = $300K
2. Legal Fees = (est) $3K
3. Buyer Stamp Duty (3% of purchase price - $5,400) = $39.6K
4. Additional Buyer Stamp Duty (ABSD), 7% = $105K

Est CPF required = $225K
Est Cash required = $222.6K
Est Total Cash = $447,600

With the recent TDSR rule, it would be advisable to speak with the mortgage banker, to have a better idea on your overall loan capability. Once we have the figure in mind, I could assist you in searching for your next home, that is both low risk and affordable.

Should you require further assistance, feel free to contact me.

Have a great day!

* Warmest regards, Christine
