Hi,

For foreigners looking to purchase singapore residential property, they are eligible to purchase all freehold/leasehold condominium developments. The typical breakdown would be 18%+20% of purchase price within 8 weeks owing to stamp duties and downpayment, provided an 80% bank loan can be attained.

Thanks and may I understand what kind of schools will be ideal for your children's education? Any location in particular that interests you? Thanks and hope to value-add further.

Warm regards
