Maximum Loan Quantum (LTV Limit) for Residential Properties in Singapore
Last modified date: 8 August 2026
Maximum Loan Quantum or Loan-to-Value (LTV) Limit refers to the maximum amount an individual can borrow from a financial institution for a housing loan.
Here, we are looking at the Maximum Loan Quantum for new loans to finance residential properties in Singapore. Whether you are buying a private property, an executive condo (EC), or a HDB flat, banks are allowed to finance the purchase up to 75% of the property's price or valuation, whichever is lower. Minimum 5% cash down payment is required. The rest of the down payment can be paid via CPF &/or cash.
If your required loan does not exceed 55% LTV, you can opt for a longer loan period (up to age 70/75 years), capped at 30 years (for HDB)/35 years for private property, provided you can pay at least 10% cash down payment.
However, if you already have an existing property loan, banks can only finance up to 45% LTV. This is further reduced to 35% if you have 2 or more existing property loans. Minimum cash down payment is 25%.
The LTV Limit, Minimum Cash Down Payment, and Maximum Loan Tenure for Individual and Corporate Borrowers are summarized in the table below.
