Start from the question you actually have. Everything here is free, none of it asks for an email, and every figure shows the rate it used and when that rate was last checked.
What are you trying to work out?
I'm buying
Work out what you can carry, and what it costs after the price.
- What can I afford, and what do I need upfront?The largest loan the rules allow, the cash a CPF account cannot cover, and both stamp duties.
- What will this home cost me to hold?Every duty, interest and commission — and the price a sale must clear to return your own cash.
- How much will I pay while it is being built?The nine stages the law sets, what the bank pays at each, and what your instalment climbs to.
I own, or I'm selling
When you can sell, what you would walk away with, and what holding costs.
- When can I sell?The date the minimum occupation period ends, and when seller’s stamp duty stops applying.
- What will this home cost me to hold?Every duty, interest and commission — and the price a sale must clear to return your own cash.
- Which flats near me can start selling?Every block reaching the end of its five-year minimum occupation period, by town and year.
I'm checking one specific home
You have an address. Everything the filed records say about it.
- What should I check before I make an offer?Six checks against filed public records, scored by a formula published on the page. Never a valuation.
- How do two or three places compare?Their filed prices, ranges and lease side by side, in a link you can send to someone.
- Is the higher floor worth what they are asking?The premium measured inside that one building — not averaged across the country.
Quick answers
Four short ones that need a figure and nothing else. Each has its own link, so you can send someone straight to the stamp duty answer rather than to this page.
You will get: Total interest, and how little of an early instalment touches what you borrowed.
48% of the first instalment is interest.
S$663,492 paid in total against S$487,500 borrowed — you repay 1.36× what you took.
