Loan-to-Value Calculator Singapore
Estimate your LTV awareness range for HDB, EC and private property purchases. Understand how loan route, price, valuation, age, tenure and existing housing loans may affect the estimated maximum loan and cash / CPF required.
LTV is not just a loan percentage. It determines how much cash and CPF you may need upfront.
Loan-to-Value helps buyers understand the possible maximum loan amount relative to the lower of purchase price or valuation. But the final loan is still subject to HDB or bank assessment, buyer profile, loan tenure, age at loan maturity, existing housing loans, CPF rules and credit assessment.
Bank Loan LTV
Bank loan LTV may change based on existing housing loans, loan tenure and whether the loan period extends beyond age 65.
HDB Loan LTV
HDB loan LTV can be up to 75%, but actual loan amount depends on HFE, credit assessment, flat type, price, valuation and CPF / cash planning.
Cash & CPF Gap
A lower LTV may mean a larger downpayment. Buyers should check whether available cash and CPF can cover downpayment, duties, legal fees and reserves.
LTV tells you how much you may be able to borrow. MSR and TDSR tell you whether monthly repayment may be acceptable. CPF and cash planning tell you whether you can complete the purchase safely.

- This is not official HDB, CPF, MAS or bank advice.
- This does not determine loan approval, valuation, LTV, CPF usage or affordability.
- Always verify with HDB, banks, CPF Board and qualified professionals.
A buyer may have a possible LTV range, but still needs to pass bank or HDB assessment, TDSR/MSR checks, CPF usage rules, stamp duty planning and long-term holding-power review.
How age, tenure and existing housing loans may affect LTV.
For bank loans, LTV is not fixed at one number for every buyer. The possible LTV may reduce when there are outstanding housing loans, when tenure is long, or when the loan period extends beyond age 65.
| Scenario | Possible bank LTV awareness | What may reduce LTV | Cash impact | Verify with |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| No existing housing loanFirst housing loan | Often up to 75%, or lower if long-tenure / age condition applies. | Tenure beyond 30 years, beyond 25 years for HDB flat, or loan extends beyond age 65. | Downpayment may rise if LTV falls from 75% to 55%. | Bank / MAS rules / HDB where relevant |
| One existing housing loanSecond housing loan | Often lower, such as 45% or 25% depending on tenure and age conditions. | Existing loan, long tenure, age beyond 65 at maturity, credit assessment. | Cash requirement can become much higher. | Bank / CPF Board / conveyancing lawyer |
| Two or more existing loansThird or subsequent housing loan | Often lower, such as 35% or 15% depending on tenure and age conditions. | Multiple loans, loan count, risk exposure, age and tenure. | Buyer may need substantial cash / CPF and stronger holding power. | Bank / tax professional / qualified professionals |
| HDB loanHDB flat buyer | Can be up to 75%, subject to HDB’s assessment and the lower of price / valuation where relevant. | HFE result, income, age, financial standing, remaining lease and flat-specific conditions. | Downpayment and CPF / cash planning depend on official assessment. | HDB / CPF Board |
Do not describe the calculator result as “approved loan amount”. Use it only as an estimated LTV awareness range. Final loan amount depends on official assessment, valuation, credit review, CPF rules and buyer circumstances.
What buyers should check before relying on an LTV estimate.
LTV is usually applied to the lower of purchase price or valuation, not simply the price the buyer hopes to pay.
Bank LTV can reduce when the buyer has one or more outstanding housing loans.
If the loan period extends beyond age 65, lower LTV rules may apply for bank loans.
Long tenure may lower LTV, especially beyond 30 years, or beyond 25 years for HDB flat loans.
Lower LTV means higher downpayment. Buyers must check whether cash and CPF are enough after duties and costs.
LTV does not replace repayment checks. Buyers still need to review monthly instalment and debt servicing.
HDB buyers need HFE clarity. Bank-loan buyers should obtain IPA before relying on loan assumptions.
This tool supports early planning. It does not confirm loan approval, eligibility, valuation or CPF usage.
Use this calculator for awareness. Verify loan and LTV officially.
Actual LTV, loan amount, CPF usage and cash required depend on current rules, valuation, buyer profile, credit assessment and property-specific circumstances.
Frequently asked questions about LTV in Singapore
What is Loan-to-Value?
Loan-to-Value, or LTV, is the estimated loan amount expressed as a percentage of the property value, usually based on the lower of the purchase price or valuation.
Is LTV always 75%?
No. LTV can be lower depending on loan route, existing housing loans, loan tenure, age at loan maturity, valuation, credit assessment and other conditions.
Why does age affect LTV?
For bank loans, lower LTV may apply if the loan period extends beyond the borrower’s age of 65. This is why buyers should check age at loan maturity, not just current age.
Does LTV determine whether I can afford the property?
No. LTV estimates possible loan size. Affordability also depends on TDSR, MSR, income stability, CPF usage, cash, stamp duties, renovation and holding power.
Is this calculator an official loan approval tool?
No. This calculator is for general education and awareness only. It does not determine HDB eligibility, bank loan approval, CPF usage approval, valuation, LTV, TDSR/MSR outcome or affordability.
Build full buyer readiness before relying on LTV.
LTV is only one part of property planning. Review affordability, TDSR, MSR, BSD/ABSD, CPF usage, cash required and long-term holding power together.
