Hi, guys I need some advise. Was thinking to buy a house to stay after marriage. Already have 1 house in the process of signing SPA.
Used my saving there, but I think it was a good buy. However, it is not really strategic for my own stay for now.
Now, I want to buy a house under both me and my fiance name. Prerabbly, one that can get some rebate/cash back.
I have a few questions :
1. How is our egibility to get a house loan? Max house price?
2. What's the legality of getting a loan more than actual sale price? (the purpose is to get cash - for marriage and other purposes)
3. Is it a good idea to go for new property with zero downpayment (only booking fees). Saw that a lot for new properties.

1. You are eligible to loan up to 690k with ur joint loan with ur fiancee
2. I can try to see if the purchase price can be mark up so that you can take a higher loan to offset the 10% deposit.
3. If the developer does offer then it's fine, otherwise the usual process is to pay the 10% deposit. Since this is no longer ur first house, you can't get 100% financing with the bank anymore, so you'll have to rely on the developer giving heavy discount.
Feel free to let me know if you need any assistance on the loan application
