yes... give opportunity to the poor who are genuinely ready to grab the advantage.

else, if we give it to the poor and they cannot even afford the dp, there is no point also

as an update,

the 70% thingy goes by the loan... not the ownership of the property

if let's say you join 2 names in the loan for 2 properties, it's counted as 2 properties each.

then the next one acquired by either of the owners is considered the 3rd properties in hand...

for 1 buying as 3rd house and 1 buying as 1st house, my loan department is unable to answer me as there is no firm instruction from the govt yet

erm... I am an OCBC mortgage consultant.

the 70% cap is only applicable on loans not property ownership.

for anyone who is applying for a 3rd loan with 2 existing housing loans currently, regardless of single or joint applicant, is considered to fall into the 70% max loan group.

meaning to say, a first time applicant + a 3rd time applicant = 3rd applicant overall. max loan ratio is 70% to valuation price or buying price, whichever lower.

@cherroy,
Lol.. looks like U been doing all the reading.  So, assuming I've a total of 3 properties but 0 loans, it means this new ruling shouldn't affect me?  And it will only affect me after my 3rd loan with the bank?

it should not affect you if we interpret the rules correctly.

I don't think they will so strict on this.
They welcomed any buyer that able to pay off the properties.

If you pay off the loan, mean in the banking system, your name "under loan" is not there anymore.
It is troublesome for banks to check this properties is the No. how many you have as banks do not have data on those paid off one or those you bought with cash one.

Anyway, this is more a temporary measure, so whether affect the paid off or not, doesn't cause major concern. As most housing loan is long tenure one, so the new measure has little impact on those issue.

yes, you are right.. co-existing loan cannot be >=3 at the point of application, else will kena 70 LTV restriction

heard from a friend that if cant get 90% loan,
some banks give a personal loan instead for shortfall
bank is RHB bank. gave 10% personal loan

other banks doing the same?

OCBC give 10% home loan Xtra... cheaper than personal loan
