First-time buyer path

Your first loan sets the next decade.

Margin, tenure and age-70 rules decide instalment size as much as the interest rate headline.

Margin of financing

First-home buyers may access higher margins - sometimes up to 100% on selected packages. Confirm eligibility before you book. Guide: 100% financing.

Tenure & age 70

Residential tenure commonly tops out around 35 years or until age 70, whichever comes first. Younger buyers can stretch tenure to lower instalments; older buyers must size the loan to the shorter window. Try the tenure vs age-70 helper.

How to prepare

  1. Run DSR and repayment tools
  2. Assemble the document checklist
  3. WhatsApp Janice before any hard enquiry
