    Default Finance for Overseas Property

    Hi,

    Does anyone know which bank in Singapore provides finance for overseas property in Asia, say Thailand, Australia, China? What are the interest rates, LTV, loan tenure?

    Overseas financing not subjected to SG laws? Eg. if buy a OZ property, only only LTV 40% if it's 2nd property?

    SG banks are subjected to MAS rullings, so even for overseas ppty will since be 80/60 LTV i think.

    Thanks for this, but which bank provides home loan for overseas property? Been calling a few banks and they said they don't do so.

    This is the easiest if u have at least $200k. Opemn a hsbc premier acct, with that u can instantly open hsbc acct in otger countries and proceed with loan application.

    Malaysia prop quite easy to loan from msia bank. But usually not more than 70% loan.

    For malaysia, there are many banks, very aggressive, CIMB, UOB, etc
    rate is around 4.2%. But beware of Malaysia properties...if u can, post it here for us to assess.

    Thailand : interesting...

    Not matter how, u must visit first

    I am also keen on Bangkok props. Share info here if you decide or eyeing on something good. Maybe can do group buy.

    You are right to point this out.

    So it looks like Jakarta or other parts of Indonesia is a better choice?

    OCBC, SCB & HSBC... Depending on whether they have operations in your country of interest

    In addition, shld try "local banks" in the respective country, eg. Thai Bangkok/Siam commercial bank, Aussie NAB/CBA/ANZ

    But china... we can buy meh??
