Good evening buyer,

you can request the law firm to set the CPF deduction amount when you purchase the house. Subsequently you can adjust the amount via CPF website.

You can use your CPF OA funds to finance the monthly mortgage but do take note of the housing limits on the amount of CPF savings you can use to buy a private property.

Valuation Limit (VL) is the purchase price or the value of the private property at the time of purchase, whichever is lower.

Withdrawal Limit (WL) is 120% of the VL. This is the maximum amount of CPF you can use for the private property.

To continue using your CPF beyond VL, up to WL, you need to meet the following requirements:

Below 55 years old: To set aside the current Basic Retirement Sum (BRS) in your Special Account (SA), including the amount withdrawn for investment, and Ordinary Account (OA).

55 years old and above: To meet the BRS in your Retirement Account (RA), SA (including the amount withdrawn for investment) and OA.

But bear in mind that max loan amount eligible will be 80% thus the initial downpayment is around 28% of the purchase price.

1) 5% cash downpayment
2) 15% cash/ CPF downpayment
3) 5% additional buyer's stamp duty as SPR
4) estimated 3% buyer's stamp duty
5) legal fees

Hope my explanation helps!

May I know how can I value add further in your property purchase?

Good evening,

As SPR, you need to fulfill 3 years holding before you are eligible to purchase resale HDB unit with another SPR who have also fulfilled 3 years holding.
But if you married an SC, you can purchase resale HDB unit immediately. You can utilize full the available sum within your OA for the monthly installment.

Dear Sir/Mdm,

Yes you can use 100% of your CPF in your OA to finance the purchase of your private property as well as to service the loan.

Congrats on getting your PR. Before embarking on the search for your dream home, I would recommend you to do up a financial plan so that you can have an overview of your finances and ensure that the purchase is within your comfortable means and not over stretched yourself.

With so many options in the market, it is also important to purchase the right development so that you will be able to enjoy the capital appreciation in the future.

I have assisted clients in a similar situation to purchase their first home. Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your objectives better and guide you towards owning your first property here!

Regards,

Hi,

It is never too early to plan for your home.

You have asked a very good question, where it was being confused with CPF investment.

All sum under OA is allowed for property purchase.

There are 2 types of funding methods for HDB resale flat:
(1) Bank
(2) HDB

(1) Bank: by using private bank, you can allocate only 15% of the purchase, and use the remaining to service your monthly installment.
However, you have to use 5% cash when using private bank funding method, and loan up to a max of 80%.

(2) HDB: by using HDB loan, you can loan up to 90%, and only need 10% from CPF as the down payment.
However, HDB will take all sum in CPF OA as the down payment to reduce the loan amount.
If your monthly installment is higher than your CPF monthly contribution, you will have to use cash to top up every month.

Hope the above answer to your main concerns, but if there are more queries, please feel free to contact me at 90110636  , or email: ling.ck7@gmail.com if more information is needed.
I'll be glad to assist.
