How affordability is calculated
The maximum property price you can afford is the lower of two limits:
- Income-bound: the largest loan your monthly income can service under TDSR (max 55% of gross income for all debts), stress-tested at 4% interest. Divided by the LTV ratio gives the price.
- Cash-bound: your cash + CPF divided by the required down payment percentage (25% for first loan, 55% for second, 65% for third).
Loan-to-Value (LTV) limits
- 1st housing loan: up to 75% LTV (5% cash + 20% cash/CPF)
- 2nd housing loan: up to 45% LTV (25% cash + 30% cash/CPF)
- 3rd or more: up to 35% LTV
Cash-only minimum is 5% of the purchase price for the first loan, 25% for second loan onwards.
