What is the down payment required for private property in Singapore

6 views
The down payment required for private property in Singapore depends on the loan tenure and the age of the borrower:
- If the loan tenure is 30 years or less and the sum of the loan tenure and the borrower's current age does not exceed 65, the minimum cash down payment is 5%.
- If the loan tenure is between 31 to 35 years or the sum of the loan tenure and the borrower's current age exceeds 65, the minimum cash down payment is 10%.
For non-individual borrowers (such as private limited companies), the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio is reduced to 15%, which means a higher down payment is required.
The rest of the down payment (after the minimum cash portion) can be paid using CPF or cash, subject to the LTV limits.
