One Chuan Grove Upgrader Calculator

Put in a price and your situation. This works out the stamp duty, the minimum cash on booking and the most a bank can lend, using today's IRAS and MAS rules.

How it's worked out

  • Buyer's Stamp Duty: 1% on the first $180,000, 2% on the next $180,000, 3% on the next $640,000, 4% on the next $500,000, 5% on the next $1.5 million and 6% on the rest. IRAS: Stamp duty rates
  • ABSD: Singapore Citizens 0% on a first home, 20% on a second, 30% on a third; PRs 5%, 30%, 35%; foreigners 60%. IRAS: Additional Buyer's Stamp Duty
  • Loan limit: 75% with no other housing loan (at least 5% in cash), 45% with one, 35% with two or more (at least 25% in cash for both). Each limit drops by 20 points if the tenure is over 30 years or runs past age 65. MAS: Loan tenure and loan-to-value limits
  • Married couples upgrading: if at least one spouse is a Singapore Citizen and you buy together, you pay the 20% ABSD first and can get it refunded if you sell your first home within 6 months. For a new launch, the 6 months is counted from the earlier of TOP or CSC of the new home. Check the conditions on IRAS before relying on this.

Not included: the bank's Total Debt Servicing Ratio test (your monthly debts can't exceed 55% of income), legal fees, and the progressive payments after the first 5%. Those depend on your income and loan, so I'll go through them with you.
