QUOTE(cy91 @ Feb 28 2022, 11:50 PM) There always other options :-1) Go for unit below 300k according to affordability first, slowly upgrade to your dream house as the salary increases over time. 2) Use joint name & joint loan for the property purchase with your life partner/spouse/family 3) Go for longer loan tenure, drag as maximum as possible to lessen the monthly commitment The main hindrance will be the upfront 10% down payment. Many will have missed out the 5% additional for the SPA, MOT & Loan Agreement. Total 15% upfront cash to be ready. This post has been edited by nihility: Mar 1 2022, 06:17 AM |

QUOTE(taitianhin @ Mar 1 2022, 10:03 PM) If to buy for investment and rent out immediately. For the 1st house, normally ppl will buy sub-sale ready to move in. If buy new unit, the monthly rental + loan servicing concurrently will suffocate the young buyer.For exact 2K loan, i would say 5K probably is good also. Do take income tax deduction into account. Buying New house (House/condo to be build) is more tricky, where we pay installment incrementally and getting nothing in return for 2-3 years. Then you need to reserve a bit la |
