Asked by
If I purchase a HDB with 60 years lease and now able to use 100 percent of CPF. After paying for a year, lease will remain with 59 years. My question is, with the 59 years lease remaining, can I still use 100 percent of my CPF to repay my loan? As when I bought it the house there's still 60 years lease remaining.
Thanks.

Hi Jass,

Its the Valuation Limit (typically 100% of price or valuation, whichever lower) that will determine how much CPF OA can be used for the property, and the date to use for computation is when you register the application for resale. Hence, you need not be concerned if you registered when it still has 60 years lease.

May I have more info and requirements about your plans so to make better recommendations? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.

Warm Regards,

-- HDB BTO 4rm Sellers Mr. Farvin & Ms. Sel --

Ivan was the first agent that we met up with and right from the offset we had good vibes as he has a friendly personal approach, detailed working style and focuses on building the long-term relationship.

Our unit comes with its challenges but Ivan remained positive and had no qualms committing to our plans right from the start. It took only 6 weeks of aggressive marketing for him to secure a good offer which was a pleasant surprise in the end.

Ivan was always responsive and we had no worries to pass him the house keys. The whole process was transparent and hassle free, and he was always thinking from our point of view on how to make life easier for the client. He is a committed professional and has fast execution, so we felt assured that things are done well and we can entrust the sale process entirely to him.

--- HDB Flat Upgraders Mr. & Mrs. Lee ---

We decided to engage Ivan as our agent as we were impressed with how he answered the enquiries on property guru website.

He has helped us to find our ideal unit and also sold our current unit. He was very patient and never pushy when we were looking for our ideal unit. He would tell us that it is always important to find a unit that we really liked.

When it comes to selling of our unit, he was always prompt in arranging for viewings and he also tried his best to arrange and consolidate the viewings due to our time constraints. He is a reliable and prompt agent and is always willing to clarify any concerns and questions that we have.

Thanks Ivan! :) Read More

Hi Ms. Yeh,

Don't worry, you will be able to use 100% of your CPF as long as the remaining lease of the HDB is 60 at the time of purchase.

I would love to help you with your home purchase, do contact me at 88209000  .

Sincerely,

Afternoon Jass,

The limitation on CPF for property with less than 60 years of lease is only applicable at point of purchase. Therefore, if the property that you are buying have at lease 60 years of lease on paper, you can utilize all your CPF OA fund.
