1. Owner has 182k+18K = 200K, wife has 34k+8K=42K, total combined OA= 242K.

2. 360k+5%. 5% include lawyer fee, stamp duty, agent fee. Total = 360Kx1.05 = 378k.

3. Estimated 5% cash = 18K for downpayment, agent fee, etc etc.

4. Need to loan 378k-242k = 136K

5. Bank loan tenure, age up to 70 year old. 70-44= 26yrs.

136K is a "pretty small amount". Should keep at least 5k-10K in each's OA for "contingency".

If loan 140K for 26yr at 2% interest, mnthly instl abt $576.

If loan 200K, ditto..... monthly instl abt $823.

Ok to you ?, pls don't thank me, just contribute more posts here will do.

the monthly instl can pay using cpf ... right ?

then i thought some other post was saying after 55yrs old, we cannot use cpf to pay housing ??

and the owner still hv other cpf $$$ used at investment ... so he say no worries on the "contingency" portion

TO use CPF for house payment, there is a cap item call AVL.

Once your CPF $$$ reach the AVL cap, you can't use the CPF to pay your HDB loan.

As for what is AVL.

U can search in this forum, which we has discuss before

Or

Google AVL.

Check with CPF personel...

Very informative and accurate..

Let say now owner transfer $60k of investment back to OA and his total CPF with wife is S#300k,

so how should he go about to buy a resale of S$360k ??

will HDB ask him to top up cash S$60k or he should still borrow from bank ?

thanks !

Bank loan min is 100k

U can choose to use 260k from CPF, and borrow 100k from Bank.

resale 360k. is just valuation or valuation + COV?

Note: CPF only can use to pay the valuation part.

If the resale value is 330k + 30k and u want to take bank loan

CPF = 230k

Bank loan = 100k min

COV = 30k CASH

Heard that some bank loan less than 100k , like 80k but interest higher. I heard say only. Better double check with the Bank.

Bank package change according to market demand.
