The HDB loan down payment used to be 10 per cent of the purchase price.
From Dec 16, 2021, Singapore's government stealthily increased the HDB loan down payment to 15 per cent at midnight. From Sept 30, 2022, the HDB loan down payment was once again increased to 20 per cent.
This came as part of a new wave of property cooling measures aimed at discouraging citizens from buying properties only to rent them out for passive income.
Besides the higher down payment required, everything else has remained the same. The HDB loan amount can be paid in cash or from your CPF Ordinary Account.
