Updated September 2026. HDB and CPF eligibility changes. Confirm every pathway through current official channels before applying.
Start with your exact household profile
Citizenship, age, income, first-timer status, prior ownership and intended household determine which housing pathways may be available.
- Complete the current HDB eligibility assessment.
- Check BTO, SBF, resale and rental routes separately.
- Confirm flat-type, location and income conditions.
- Review grants, CPF use, loan eligibility and cash requirements.
- Test affordability with a buffer for rates, renovation and life changes.
Do not rely on historical age, grant or income thresholds. Use current HDB and CPF guidance and obtain personalised financing advice where needed.
