Equity Loan
How property equity works
The equity is the difference between your property's current market value and your
outstanding mortgage balance, along with any CPF funds utilised, if applicable.
Available equity = current property value - outstanding mortgage - CPF used
Property-backed SME financing
Leveraging a Director's Personal Property for Business Financing
A powerful alternative to standard personal equity loans is the Property-Backed
Business Loan. Companies can leverage a director's personal residential or commercial
property to secure a loan under the business entity's name.
Because the borrower is an operating company rather than an individual, these
facilities are often assessed differently from standard personal residential equity
loans governed by MAS Notice 632. This structure can help businesses unlock working
capital at significantly lower interest rates compared with unsecured business loans,
using the director's property equity as a flexible financing tool.
Loan structure
Key Loan Features & Regulatory Limits
Loan Amount & LTV Limits
The amount you can borrow is determined by available equity. For residential
properties, MAS Notice 632 regulates strict LTV limits for individuals. Banks
factor in current property value, outstanding mortgage, and whether total
facilities remain within the relevant LTV threshold.
Loan Tenor
Equity loans are typically structured with shorter repayment periods than
standard mortgages. Tenors usually range from a few years up to 15 years,
depending on requirements and age.
Interest Rates
Borrowers may choose fixed or variable interest rates. Variable rates are
commonly pegged to transparent market benchmarks such as the Singapore Overnight
Rate Average (SORA).
