Hi,

First time buyer. recently book a unit and got a loan offer 3-days later. Was really lucky since difficult to get 90% loan (due 0 CCRIS, <35 yrs term, working in SG).

As first time buyer, if there any particular clause to read (between the lines) in the loan agreement (LA). Used to read terms and conditions whenever I sign any documents, but the clauses too complicated. Haha

Borrowers have to accept most terms stated, otherwise no loan. Applicable to all banks.

Exception ... mrta, fire policy & interest rate.with certain flexibility.

Honestly, bank officers and some lawyers also wont know how to explain.

Can I check when signing Offer Letter and Loan Agreement to be the same person, but SPA signing will be another person; e.g. spouse name only instead of the borrower's name?

Normally banks would follow the names in SPA. However, additional name can be include in Loan Agreenent not stated in SPA.

I see. So not possible to have name A in the loan agreement but name B in the SPA?

Only way would be Name A in loan agreement and Name A and B in SPA??

Yes.

Is complicated with your arrangement due to legal issues. Additional documents can be signed but banks prefer not to go that route.

For eg what happens when the spa name is not the borrower but wants to sell the property and the borrower cannot clear the outstanding loan ?

Your arrangement is called third party 1st charge. For eg, a director in the company can use his personal property as collateral for a company loan. Since both property and company belongs to the director, it deemed to be the same person. The director dont have to transfer the property to the company as every transfer involve legal fees, stamp duty and rpgt, if applicable.
