I think cheap does not mean it is good investment.

For property sector to grow, population and economy are the 2 important factors.

According to Singapore white paper, by 2030 they want to increase the population to 6.9m from current 5.6m.

Low unemployment rate is helping a lot. Low interest rate of around 2%.

Yes. It is easy to get mortgage for recent EP holder. I have helped many my client to get loan

Income documents need:
3 month payslip
3 month bank statement showing salary crediting
Employment pass

Up to 75%. Current interest rate is around 2% -2.3%.

What type of property and location are you looking? Amount?

You may pm for discussing.

Damn, property in Singapore is damn expensive indeed. This old property (10 years++) is selling for SGD2.5k per square feet, although I must say the view from the balcony is absolutely stunning and it is walking distance to Orchard Road.

3,225 sqft (duplex) going for SGD8mil, after conversion, it's RM27mil!!! shocking.gif
Best part is, this 3,225 sqft unit doesn't feel too spacious at all, especially the rooms, compared to the average 1,500sqft+- condo in KL.

Property price in a 1st world nation....wooott!

Malaysia property damn cheap, price doesn't appreciate that much. At the same time, demand isn't that strong too, not piping hot like Singapore. At the end of the day, everything is connected to the economy. That needs to be fixed first, and the others will follow suit.

Yeah, for sure, will need to pay Seller's Stamp Duty (SSD). More info on it here:
https://www.iras.gov.sg/taxes/stamp-duty/fo...ential-property

Can reach out to either of the agents in the video above (Zach or Jacob) for assistance to market your unit?

For 800k the stamp duty payable is $138,600.

Buyer stamp duty is 3% for property below $1million, 4% for property above $1mil.

Non singapore citizen need to pay additional buyer stamp duty (ABSD).
For foreigner, it is 15%
For permanent resident, first property it is 5%, second property onwardis 10%
For singaporean, first property is 0% , second property is 7%, 3rd property onward 10%

Hence, foreigner like malaysian pay 15% additional buyer stamp duty and 3%-4% buyer stamp duty, total 18% - 19%

ABSD was introduced in 2011 to cool dow singapore red hot market back then. HK, England, Canada Australia also impose additional on foreign purchase too.

Even though, there is ABSD, many foreigners are still buying singapore property.

That figure is out of date. The current ABSD for foreigners is 60%!!! But you still see so much money going in, HK’s downturn was SG’s gain. It’s probably more cost efficient to try to get PR status before buying anything.

Foreigners investing in SG are thinking about “wealth preservation” and not so much of capital growth or chasing yield.

If you know how insecure the Mainlanders and Indo-Chinese are then you’ll understand why they still go ahead despite the high prices. Even the Malaysian elites have so much stuff there.
