Asked by
Hi, I own an HDB flat with my wife (under both our names as S’porean) and I just bought an overseas apartment under my own name. In future, if we consider buying a private condo in Singapore (without selling HDB or overseas property), will this be considered my 2nd or 3rd property? I am thinking about the ABSD and bank loan amount. Thanks

Morning,

The purchase which you might make in SG will be considered as your second property in holding. Therefore you will be liable for 7% ABSD.

Good afternoon,

ABSD will be based on the number of residential property you own in Singapore.

Thus the purchase will be considered as your second property in Singapore and you therefore be subject to 7% ABSD as a SC.

Other than ABSD, do take note that you have to set aside a minimum sum of $77.5k in your CPF OA + SA before you can use the excess in this purchase of you have utilised CPF OA funds in your current property.

Loan amount will depends whether do you have any outstanding loan by then.

If you do, you only can loan up to 50%. Downpayment will be in 25% cash and 25% CPF/ cash. If you dont, you can loan up to 80%, downpayment will be 5% cash and 15% CPF/ cash.

Hope my explanation helps!

If you need any assistance or advice in your property purchase, feel free to contact me.
