How much BANK LOAN can I get? (Home Loan Part 1)

When it comes to property purchase, what is your very first step?

It is not about which location do you prefer and also not about how big the house you want.

(Because if you can’t afford the location and the size that you want, you can never own your desired house)

But the very first step is to check your finance capability. Such as how much Cash and CPF do you have.

And how much you can borrow from the bank. From there, then you can determine the property you can afford.

Bank Loan affected by TDSR 2013

In 2013, MAS introduced TDSR and MSR. TDSR means your total monthly installment cannot be more than 60% of your monthly income, including your home loan, car loan, study loan, etc.

Whereas MSR cap your monthly home mortgage at 30% of your monthly income.

TDSR impose on private property purchase whereas MSR imposed on EC and HDB purchase.

3 important components to determine how much loan can you get:

  • Your Age
  • Your Income
  • Property Type

For example, if you are 30 years old and an employee with a monthly salary at $5,000, and you are buying a condo.

You can loan approximately up to $668k or 75% of the property value/price whichever is lower.

But with the same situation, if you buy a HDB flat, your loan amount reduced to around $300k only.

    I’ve met so many property agents in my life but Stephen is really a rare find. If you are looking for someone unconventional, who gives advice based on data and answer all your easy and hard questions tirelessly, then I couldn’t recommend Stephen more. A very hardworking, humble and strategic agent, highly recommend!

    Stephen is experienced, analytical and views properties comprehensively. This is evident right from the beginning when we chanced upon his informative YouTube videos. He provided us invaluable advice throughout the process of our property purchase. His calm, humble and polite nature made him an approachable professional to discuss the many questions we had. He was patient with his technical explanations as well as his insightful suggestions. He placed our interests first, in the buyers' shoes, gave us space to consider and has never rushed us to make decisions without proper considerations. His attentiveness goes a long way. Stephen carefully planned out the timeline for us and gave us reminders to complete the various items ahead of the deadlines to avoid unwanted hiccups. It was entirely a worry-free process. Stephen even gone the extra mile to meet us at the law firm to show us the way and be in person with us to sign the S&P. He made our property purchase a great buy and an enjoyable experience. Thank you, Stephen.

    Was going thru Stephen's video when I noticed he had a google review panel up. Going to copy paste my review on his FB page from 2019. I still stand by my review. Stephen was very professional throughout our engagement process. I first engaged Stephen as his effort could be seen thru the videos he made. The videos were informative, detailed, yet easy to understand from a beginners point of view. Could also see the improvement of his videos as time passes, and that speaks volumes about one's character on his eagerness to improve and share. During my engagement with him, Stephen was very professional. Since I was very new in the scene, I required alot of guidance and honesty. Stephen was very upfront with me on many items and did not try to hide any facts from me. As a first time buyer, both good and bad prospects were laid out after his detailed analysis on my current financial condition and also on the projects we went to see. Comparing to other agents who will just blab anything that benefits their sales point, Stephen was straightforward and truthful on the issue. I have met quite a few agents but would highly recommend Stephen to people who are looking for properties, be it looking for a place to stay, or looking for a property to invest.
