Assess Executive Condominium (EC) affordability for HDB upgraders under 30% MSR, compare Deferred Payment Scheme (DPS) vs Progressive (NPS), and upfront capital. Calculate exact, penny-accurate projections compliant with 2026 CPFB • IRAS • Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) • HDB standards using Calconova's deterministic IEEE-754 (Decimal.js) calculation engine with instant breakdowns.
Under DPS, purchase price is $1,493,500 (incl. 3% developer premium), deferring all loan servicing until TOP.
Max\ MSR\ Payment = Gross\ Household\ Income \times 30\% \\
Max\ Loan = PV(Rate_{stress\ 4\%},\ Tenure,\ Max\ MSR\ Payment) \\
Total\ Initial\ Capital = 20\%\ Downpayment + BSD\ Stamp\ Duty + Resale\ LevyUnder MAS regulations, EC buyers are bound by the 30% Mortgage Servicing Ratio (MSR). The Deferred Payment Scheme (DPS) enables HDB upgraders to pay just 20% downpayment upfront, deferring the 65% loan drawdown until TOP so they do not service two mortgages at once.

DPS is designed for existing HDB upgraders. Buyers pay 20% downpayment (5% cash booking fee + 15% S&P exercise fee in cash/CPF). No monthly loan repayments or progressive calls are required during construction until the project achieves TOP (approx 3 years later).
No! Unlike private condominiums, Singapore Citizen households buying a new developer EC are granted an upfront remission on ABSD (no 20% cash needed). You can continue living in your HDB flat and only need to sell it within 6 months after collecting keys to the new EC.
The gross monthly household income ceiling for purchasing a new Executive Condominium directly from a developer is capped at S$16,000. If your household income exceeds this, you can purchase resale ECs in the secondary market.
