The key ones to note are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>As of October 2012, the maximum loan tenure for residential properties is 35 years\/<\/li><li>If the loan tenure exceeds 30 years*, your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/property-jargon-of-the-day-loan-to-value-ratio-ltv\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LTV<\/a> ratio (the amount you can borrow) is reduced to 55% of your property value or price, whichever is lower.<\/li><li>Should the loan tenure plus your current age exceed 65 (the retirement age), your LTV ratio is also reduced to 55%.<\/li><li>The minimum cash down payment is increased from 5% to 10, if your loan tenure exceeds 30 years, or would extend beyond the retirement age of 65.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><em>*25 years for HDB flats<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The restrictions are to prevent over-leveraging. The idea is that you shouldn&#8217;t still be servicing a home loan, near or after retirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-loan-tenures-and-the-total-debt-servicing-ratio-tdsr\">Loan tenures and the Total Debt Servicing Ratio (TDSR)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As your tenure extends, your monthly loan repayments go down. When it shortens, your loan repayments go up. As such, the tenure can affect whether or not you meet the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/property-jargon-of-the-day-total-debt-servicing-ratio-tdsr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TDSR requirements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, say you take a loan of S$1 million for your property, at an interest rate of two per cent per annum. At the maximum loan tenure of 30 years, this comes to a repayment of about S$3,700 per month.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image wp-image-26151\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/low-rates-money.jpg\" alt=\"A bunch of coins with an arrow pointing downwards\" class=\"wp-image-26151\" width=\"700\"\/><figcaption>As your loan tenure extends, your monthly loan repayments go down.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>If you reduce the loan tenure to 25 years however, the loan repayment rises to S$4,240 per month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now the TDSR caps your total loan obligations (inclusive of other loans besides your home loan) at 55% of your monthly income. So if you earn S$6,500 per month, for example, your total loan repayments cannot exceed S$3,575 per month. As such, you would be approved for the home loan if your tenure is 30 years, but not if it&#8217;s 25 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-don-t-forget-that-a-longer-tenure-means-you-ultimately-pay-more\">Don&#8217;t forget that a longer tenure means you ultimately pay more<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most borrowers will take the longest loan tenure possible, as home loan rates are typically low in Singapore. However, don&#8217;t be under the illusion that you&#8217;re paying less because your monthly repayments are lower. In the long run, <strong>a longer loan tenure always means paying more.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image wp-image-23385\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/iStock-1057103360.jpg\" alt=\"Paying money for landlord to dispose trash\" class=\"wp-image-23385\" width=\"700\"\/><figcaption>A longer loan tenure always means paying more.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>For example, say you borrow S$315,000 for your flat using an HDB loan (2.6% interest). Over a 25 year loan tenure, you&#8217;d pay back around S$428,700. That&#8217;s a loss of S$113,700 in interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you shorten the tenure to 20 years however, total repayment comes to just S$404,300. That&#8217;s a loss of just S$89,300 to interest; so a tenure that&#8217;s five years shorter can save you S$24,400.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, monthly repayments at 25 years is just around S$1,400, whereas it rises to about S$1,685 over 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"border: 0.8px solid #808080; font-size: 17px; padding: 15px; text-align: left;\"><i>Read this: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/when-should-you-consider-a-shorter-loan-tenure-for-your-home\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Why you should consider a shorter home loan tenure<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-correct-loan-tenure-is-a-matter-of-debate\">The &#8220;correct&#8221; loan tenure is a matter of debate<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Even finance professionals debate what the &#8220;correct&#8221; tenure for a home loan is. Some wealth managers, for instance, will claim the maximum loan tenure is ideal given the low interest rate \u2013 they&#8217;ll tell you to hold on to more cash, which you can invest elsewhere (you could grow the money faster than the home loan interest).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, some will insist that you should pay your home loan quicker. This avoids the danger of rising interest rates over time (the historical interest rate in Singapore is 4% per annum), lowers risk (what if you get retrenched at 47?) and maximises gains when you resell the house.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image wp-image-24183\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/iStock-1033723282-787x292-1.jpg\" alt=\"Asian woman looking up to think\" class=\"wp-image-24183\" width=\"700\"\/><figcaption>Even finance professionals debate what the &#8220;correct&#8221; loan tenure for a home loan is.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>However, there are some basic guidelines that many seasoned property investors follow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, your monthly loan repayments should not exceed 40% of your monthly income (even though the TDSR limits it at 55%). If it would exceed this amount, you should consider stretching the tenure, or just buying a cheaper house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, you should never pay so much for the home loan that you end lacking savings. This tends to incur even more interest from other loans. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Say you shorten your loan tenure from 30 years to 20 years. The monthly repayments go so high, that you have little in the way of savings.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image wp-image-22564\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Empty-wallet.jpg\" alt=\"Empty wallet\" class=\"wp-image-22564\" width=\"700\"\/><figcaption>You should never pay so much for the home loan that you end lacking savings.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>But then an accident happens, and you&#8217;re unable to work for a year or two. Because you have limited savings, you&#8217;re forced to resort to credit \u2013 such as personal loans \u2013 to get by. These unsecured loans have an interest rate of 6% to 9% per annum; much higher than your home loan.\u00a0 As such, you would have been better off just paying the lower home loan interest, and saving more for emergencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Third, a common aspiration is to have your home loan repaid by the time you are 55.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most Singaporeans pay their home loan through their CPF \u2013 but remember that from 55 to 60, your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.areyouready.sg\/YourInfoHub\/Pages\/News-How-your-CPF-contributions-and-allocation-rates-change-as-you-grow-older.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CPF contributions will be lower<\/a>. There&#8217;s a chance that your CPF may no longer suffice to cover the home loan, or that you&#8217;ll use so much of it that little is left for retirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, your income tends to fall once you&#8217;re past 55. Even if you&#8217;re offered re-employment at the age of 62, for instance, your employer may be forced to put you in a lower-paid position. This is especially true if your job is physical; you can&#8217;t handle the same physical workload in your old age that you could in, say, your 30s and 40s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more details on the right loan tenure for you, speak to a qualified professional, such as a financial planner or wealth manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-other-bits-of-property-jargon-would-you-like-to-learn-more-about-let-us-know-in-the-comments-section-below\">What other bits of property jargon would you like to learn more about?
