Landed houses and condominiums, after all, come with attractive freehold leases and in the case of the latter, great amenities and facilities such as pools and gyms.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Singapore government hands out plenty of subsidies and benefits to first-time HDB homebuyers. (Unless of course, your income is so high that you are not eligible to purchase a HDB unit.) If you are a Singaporean with a combined household income of less than $12,000 a month, however, the benefits of buying a HDB unit are worth serious consideration.<\/p>\n<p>Below are the key doles:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>For one, first-time homeowners are eligible for grants of up to $20,000. Additional CPF Housing Grants of up to $35,000 are also given to buyers who fall into certain household income brackets. This could mean a 10 percent subsidy for three-room flat buyers in some of the areas like Ang Mo Kio.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14935\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14935\" style=\"width: 950px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14935 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/varying-flat-prices.png\" alt=\"Excerpt of a table detailing different flat types and their prices\" width=\"950\" height=\"620\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/varying-flat-prices.png 950w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/varying-flat-prices-940x613.png 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14935\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Flat prices vary depending on certain attributes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><i>Source: HDB Price <\/i><a href=\"http:\/\/services2.hdb.gov.sg\/web\/fi10\/emap.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><i>Comparison Webpage<\/i><\/a><i>. <\/i><\/p>\n<p>These additional incentives give young homebuyers a good start in owning their first property. More information on these grants can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/hdb-priority-schemes-enhancing-chances-bto\/\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/hdb-housing-grants\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>First-time Singaporeans and Permanent Residents are also entitled to a purchase of new units directly from the HDB. These subsidized units, which are called Build-To-Order (BTO) units, have been set aside primarily for first-time homeowners. Since these units have not been exposed to open market forces, homebuyers enjoy more affordable rates as compared to resale HDB units. A quick check on the HDB website shows that a new four-room BTO flat in Hougang sold between $255,000 and $315,000 in February 2015. In comparison, the median price in the first quarter of 2015 for a four-room resale unit in Hougang was $400,000.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>There are also other benefits of buying a new unit from the HDB. These include enjoying a full 99-year lease, moving into new units that need little renovation works and facilities upgrading, and enjoying better designed homes that mimic condominium planning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>As first-timer families generally have more urgent housing needs than second timers, the HDB sets aside more flats for them. From November 2014 sales launch onwards, the Married Child Priority Scheme (MCPS) has set aside a proportion of the flat supply for parents and married children who wish to live closer to one another.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Additionally, the HDB accords priority allocation to first-time buyers that are recent couples or parents under the Parenthood Priority Scheme (PPS).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>From May 2015 sales launch onwards, up to 50 percent of the 2-room flats in the non-mature estates in each BTO launch will be set aside for Single Singaporeans<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There is also the plus of seeing your property value appreciate over the mandatory five-year occupation period. Thanks to market forces and the perception of SG as a safe haven for investment in the region, the prices of homes in Singapore generally tend to increase.<\/p>\n<p>Even though the market has significantly stabilized in the last two years since the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) introduced the Total Debt Servicing Ratio (TDSR) to cool prices, there are some instances where resale home prices have been increasing\u2014albeit more slowly than pre-TDSR days. For instance, the centrally located units at the Pinnacle@Duxton are fetching resale prices of around $940,000. These units were sold at $340,000 by the HDB in 2004.<\/p>\n<p>The government&#8217;s primary aim is to make public housing a means to put roofs over its citizens\u2019 heads. So, if you are a first-time homebuyer in Singapore, the imperative should be to buy a home you can afford and call your own. And if the government is helping you in so many ways to achieve this milestone, then you may just want to embrace it with open arms and make use of the various grants and subsidy schemes.
