HDB Bank Loan Eligibility
Our mortgage consultants perform bank loan calculations based on your income, age and new HDB purchase price. Get assured of your HDB bank loan eligibility based on the Mortgage Servicing Ratio (MSR) across all major banks in Singapore.

Mortgage Flexibility
HDB properties have a minimum occupancy period (MOP) of 5 years, but there are exceptions to this rule with HDB’s approval. Our mortgage consultants ensure flexibility in your mortgage by having special conditions such as waiver of penalties for early sale of your HDB unit, making a partial repayment during the lock in period and a free switch to a different interest rate package.
Lower Upfront Fees
For a new HDB home loan, upfront costs include legal fees which are within the range of $2,000 to $2,800. Through our partner conveyancing law firms, you get to enjoy lower legal fees through DollarBack Mortgage rewards. Lower upfront fees reduce the effective net interest being paid for mortgage, allowing you to save on your monthly instalments.
