Before SellingSgProperty, buyers kept making the same expensive mistakes:
Rushing the booking fee on launch day
Caught up in showroom pressure, they commit — then forfeit part of the deposit when the loan falls short or doubts set in.
Buying with no exit plan
No thought given to the Seller's Stamp Duty timeline or holding period — leaving them stuck, or selling at a loss years later.
Trusting one showflat's pitch
No independent check on PSF, balance units or comparable resale, so they overpay without ever knowing it.

Used for the MSR (HDB & EC only) and the TDSR stress test at a 4% floor rate.
Excludes legal/conveyancing fees, valuation, and buffer funds. For private resale purchases, stamp duties are typically paid in cash first and reimbursed from CPF OA after completion.

Select HDB Loan or Bank Loan and enter your target purchase price. We automatically apply the current 75% LTV cap for first-time buyers.
Set your preferred tenure and interest rate. Banks are generally capped at the lower of 30 years or age 65. HDB loans max out at 25 years.
Enter your age and gross monthly income to instantly check MSR (HDB/EC) and TDSR stress test results at the current 4% floor rate.
This shows your monthly repayment and the total interest you will pay over the full loan tenure. A lower interest rate or shorter tenure significantly reduces total interest paid.
We test your loan against current MAS rules. MSR ≤ 30% for HDB/EC and TDSR ≤ 55% at 4% stress test. These are the two most important affordability gates in Singapore.
Here are three realistic scenarios to help you understand how the numbers translate to real buying decisions.
This profile comfortably passes both MSR and TDSR for most households earning above $7,500 gross monthly.

Rates as of June 2026. Always compare latest bank packages before deciding.
Unlike resale properties where you pay the full amount on completion, new launch condos use a progressive payment scheme. The loan is drawn down in stages as construction milestones are reached.
This means your monthly instalment starts lower and steps up as more of the loan is disbursed. This calculator shows the standard progressive payment schedule so you can plan your cashflow accurately during the construction period (typically 3–4 years).
Pro Tip for New Launch Buyers:
Many buyers underestimate the increasing instalments during construction. Use this calculator and speak to me to model your actual cashflow before you book a unit.

HDB loans are provided by the Housing & Development Board with a current rate of 2.60% and a maximum tenure of 25 years. Bank loans generally offer lower rates (from ~1.80% as of mid-2026) but have stricter TDSR stress testing and are capped at the lower of 30 years or age 65.
The Total Debt Servicing Ratio (TDSR) stress test requires that all your debts, including the new home loan calculated at a 4% floor interest rate, do not exceed 55% of your gross monthly income. This is one of the key affordability checks used by banks.
The Mortgage Servicing Ratio (MSR) caps your monthly mortgage payment at 30% of your gross monthly income for HDB flats and Executive Condominiums. It is stricter than TDSR and is one of the main reasons many buyers use this calculator before viewing new launches.
For new launch properties, you pay in stages during construction instead of one lump sum. Your bank loan is drawn down progressively, and your monthly instalment is recalculated each time more of the loan is disbursed. This calculator shows the standard progressive payment schedule.

A rare freehold boutique of just 107 units in Tanjong Rhu (D15), three minutes from Katong Park MRT on the Thomson–East Coast Line. Here's the independent, data-backed view.
Arina East Residences is one of the few freehold new launches of this cycle — and at 107 units, among the most exclusive. The trade-offs are real: a $2,800+ PSF entry for an RCR address, a developer consortium (ZACD Group, Welltech Construction, FRX Capital) without a blue-chip track record, and a unit count small enough that resale liquidity deserves thought. Buy it for permanence, scarcity and the TEL doorstep — not for a quick flip.
| Project | Region | Tenure | Avg PSF | Units | TOP | Differentiator |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Arina East Residences | RCR | Freehold | $2,811 | 107 | 2027 | Freehold + boutique scale |
| Union Square Residences | RCR | 99 LH | $2,966 | 366 | 2029 | Singapore River + Clarke Quay |
| Aurea | CCR | 99 LH | $2,840 | 188 | 2029 | Low-density CCR |
An own-stay buyer or legacy-minded investor who values freehold permanence, wants TEL connectivity without CCR pricing, prefers a quiet low-density address near the Sports Hub, and intends to hold well past any speculative window.
Chasing a short-hold flip (thin liquidity works against fast exits), need a deep pool of comparable transactions for confidence, or want the reassurance of a top-tier developer brand at this price point.
Yes — it is one of the few freehold new launch condos available in this cycle, a structural advantage over the 99-year leasehold comparables in its price range.
Q4 2027 expected TOP, with vacant possession in 2028 — earlier keys than most 2029–2030 completions among comparable launches.
Only 107 units across 1- to 4-bedroom layouts — boutique and exclusive, with the liquidity trade-off that implies on resale.
