Good Credit Standing

As a self-employed person, you are deemed as a higher risk

potential

Why?

There could be greater income and debt fluctuations simply

because you are the person responsible for the business

You need to demonstrate a favourable credit history to

make up for the cash-flow instability

Stable Business

You need to be in business for at least two years because

financing institutions require latest 2 years of tax bill for

application

If you have only been in business for a year, you can take a

loan based on

• one-year Notice of Assessment

• and asset-based lending [not applicable to Housing

Development Board flat]

But still loan approval is case-by-case and not all financiers offer

asset-based lending.

To find out more about this form of loan, please look at

Singapore Property Lending?

In addition, financing institutions base the loan quantum on the income stated in the Notice of Assessment. Therefore, if you have claimed for tax deduction, this will lower the income in your tax bill.
