For commercial property in Singapore, LTV is typically up to 80% of valuation\/purchase price, whichever is lower. The remaining 20% comes from the borrower as a cash down payment. On a $2 million property, that&#8217;s a $400,000 commitment from your side before financing kicks in.<\/li><li><strong>Loan Tenure<\/strong>: The length of time over which the loan is repaid. For commercial property, tenure of up to 25 years is generally available, subject to the borrower&#8217;s profile and the property type. A longer tenure reduces the monthly instalment but increases total interest paid over the life of the commercial property loan. A shorter tenure does the opposite.<\/li><li><strong>Lock-in Period<\/strong>: The window during which early repayment, refinancing, or partial prepayment may incur a penalty, typically 1.5% of the prepaid amount or the outstanding loan. Lock-ins of 1 to 3 years are common. If you expect to refinance or sell within that window, the lock-in terms matter as much as the headline interest rate on the loan.<\/li><\/ul><p>\u00a0<\/p><table width=\"624\"><tbody><tr><td width=\"112\"><p><strong>Term<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td width=\"199\"><p><strong>Typical Range in Singapore<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td width=\"313\"><p><strong>What It Means in Practice<\/strong><\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td width=\"112\"><p><strong>Loan-to-Value (LTV)<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td width=\"199\"><p>Up to 80% of valuation or purchase price<\/p><\/td><td width=\"313\"><p>You&#8217;ll need at least 20% in cash upfront<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td width=\"112\"><p><strong>Loan tenure<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td width=\"199\"><p>Up to 25 years<\/p><\/td><td width=\"313\"><p>Longer tenure means lower monthly instalments but more total interest<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td width=\"112\"><p><strong>Lock-in period<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td width=\"199\"><p>1 to 3 years<\/p><\/td><td width=\"313\"><p>Early repayment or refinancing within this window may incur penalties<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2e641b2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2e641b2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Who is Eligible for a Commercial Property Loan in Singapore?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a12fca4 list-gap list-style elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a12fca4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Eligibility for a commercial property loan depends on whether you&#8217;re applying as a business or as an individual.<\/p><ul><li><strong>For Businesses:<\/strong> Lenders assess the company&#8217;s financial health: revenue, profitability, cash flow, and years in operation.

For example, a freehold shophouse in a strong commercial district will be assessed differently from a 30-year industrial unit on a leasehold tail. The valuation determines the LTV ceiling and, by extension, how much cash the borrower needs to put down. Intended use matters too. A property bought to operate a business is treated differently from one bought purely for rental yield, and some lenders price the interest rate on a commercial property loan accordingly.<\/p><p>On the borrower side, the focus is on debt servicing capacity. For companies, lenders look at net operating income against existing liabilities and the proposed loan repayment. For sole proprietors and individual borrowers, TDSR rules apply based on personal income, with all existing debt obligations factored in.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a8f46c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1a8f46c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How is SingFinance's Approach to Commercial Property Loan Different?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8de1b10 list-gap list-style elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8de1b10\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Large lenders typically run commercial property loan applications through a standardised credit scorecard and a centralised approval process.
