Hi Mr Maris,
The first step to buying a private condo in Singapore is to find out how much loan you will be eligible for and whether you are comfortable financially with the monthly mortgage payment.
After the financial planning portion is settled, you will have a better understand of the quantum of property that you will be able to afford comfortably.
Stamp duty has to be paid either by cash or by CPF. You will not be able to secure a loan to pay the stamp duty. If you are not a Singaporean, you will also be subjected to Additional Buyer Stamp Duty (ABSD).
If you are able to secure an 80% loan, the balance 20% will make up of 5% cash and 15% CPF. Other costs include the stamp duty and the legal fees. There is no commission that is payable when purchasing a private property.
Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your objectives better and guide you through the steps of purchasing a private property!
Regards,
Nick Tan
