How to read the colour codes

Green · ComfortableCommitment appears within a healthier range, subject to personal cash flow, savings, and loan approval.
Yellow · ManageableCommitment may be workable, but buyers should monitor monthly cash flow and interest-rate changes.
Orange · StretchedPurchase may still be suitable for buyers with strong reserves, stable income, and clear holding power.
Red · High CommitmentNot automatically “cannot buy”, but requires careful financial, legal, tax, and property review before committing.

Compliance-aware advisory positioning

  • No guaranteed outcome: This tool does not promise capital appreciation, rental yield, bank approval, or transaction suitability.
  • No fear-based messaging: A high commitment result means “review carefully”, not “do not buy”.
  • Investment strategy matters: Some buyers purchase for own stay, scarcity, family use, legacy, or long-term capital appreciation rather than rental yield alone.
  • New launch awareness: Progressive payments may feel lighter before TOP. Buyers should test affordability based on the full loan after completion.
  • Landed and shophouse awareness: Scarcity and long-term positioning may matter, but planning rules, restrictions, financing, taxes, maintenance, tenancy risk, and exit liquidity should be reviewed.
