from your calculation above, the interest is on a fixed over 6 years where in actual fact all housing loans are on a reducing balance, some even up to daily rest. in this case the interest is lower than what you calculated.

if its at 2003, 7% is quite reasonable to begin with.

looking at the asking price, if you take into consideration of the interest rate, stamp duty for loan and property, its definitely at a loss. if the owner was occupying the unit for the last  6 years, must take into consideration of the opportunity cost as well..

Both calculation are not correct.
When the housing proceed to the next phase, bank will release a certain sum of money to the developer.

There is no reduction of principle during these periods.
Interest are counted on the release sum.
