Hello,

What is the difference between HDB loan and bank loan?

Should I take a housing loan from HDB or the bank?
Can I switch from an HDB loan to a bank loan?
Should I change the HDB loan to a bank loan?
Can I take HDB and a bank loan?

HDB loan and bank loan are two types of financing options available for purchasing a home in Singapore. The key differences between these two types of loans are as follows:

Eligibility: HDB loans are available only to Singapore citizens and permanent residents who are first-time homebuyers and meet certain eligibility criteria. Bank loans, on the other hand, are available to all eligible individuals regardless of their citizenship or residency status.

Interest rates: HDB loans have a fixed interest rate, which is currently set at 2.6% per annum. Bank loans, on the other hand, offer both fixed and variable interest rate options, and the rates can vary depending on market conditions and the individual's creditworthiness.

Loan amount: HDB loans typically offer a maximum loan amount of up to 90% of the purchase price or valuation of the property, whichever is lower. Bank loans, on the other hand, can offer higher loan amounts, up to 75% to 80% of the property value.

Repayment period: HDB loans have a maximum repayment period of up to 25 years, while bank loans can offer longer repayment periods, up to 30 years or more.

Fees and charges: HDB loans have lower administrative fees and charges compared to bank loans, which may have higher fees and charges such as processing fees, legal fees, and valuation fees.

Overall, choosing between an HDB loan and a bank loan depends on your eligibility, financial situation, and personal preferences. It is advisable to compare the interest rates, loan amounts, repayment periods, and fees and charges of both types of loans before making a decision.
