Income needed
Under the 30% Mortgage Servicing Ratio for HDB flats, an instalment of S$8,834.23 needs a gross household income of at least S$29,447.44 a month. Under the 55% TDSR, it needs at least S$16,062.24 with no other debts. Banks test affordability at a higher stress-test rate, so the real requirement is higher for bank loans.
Things to check
- Stamp duty is based on the purchase price or market value, whichever is higher.
- Using CPF for housing reduces what is left for retirement, and you must refund the amount used plus accrued interest when you sell.
- HDB loans are capped at 25 years and must be fully repaid by age 65.
- Seller's Stamp Duty can wipe out the gains on a quick resale, so check your holding period before selling.
Background
Singapore's property market is shaped by cooling measures introduced since 2009, including Additional Buyer's Stamp Duty, loan-to-value limits and debt servicing ratios. These rules are adjusted when the market runs hot, so the numbers you see today may differ from what friends paid a few years ago.
Most Singaporeans live in HDB flats, which can be financed with an HDB concessionary loan at 0.1% above the CPF Ordinary Account rate or with a bank loan. Private property must be financed with a bank loan, and banks offer fixed, floating and SORA-pegged packages.
Stamp duties are paid upfront. Buyer's Stamp Duty applies to every purchase at tiered rates up to 6%, while ABSD depends on the buyer's residency status and how many residential properties they already own. Sellers who dispose of a property within the holding period pay Seller's Stamp Duty.
