The financial and mortgage loan options include the “First Mortgage Loan” ⁶ and “Second Mortgage Loan” ⁶ plans. Buyers can apply to designated financial institution(s) for a first mortgage⁶ with a maximum loan amount of 85% of the property price or 30% of the property price for the second mortgage⁶. The interest rate for the first mortgage⁶ in the first 24 months is prime rate (P) minus 2.5% p.a. while that for the second mortgage⁶ in the first 24 months is P minus 2.25% p.a. The interest rates for the remainder of term (after the first 24 months) for both “First Mortgage Loan” ⁶ and “Second Mortgage Loan” ⁶ plans will be as low as the prime rate (P). The loan term can be as long as 20 years⁶, offering great flexibility for buyers to manage their cashflow.⁶”
