Use this TDSR Calculator to assess your current monthly financing limit, which will determine your maximum property loan quantum.
The Total Debt Servicing Ratio (TDSR) is a framework introduced by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) to prevent over-indebtedness. Under TDSR rules, your total monthly debt obligations - including housing loans, car loans, credit cards, and personal loans - must not exceed 55% of your gross monthly income.

How does an investment property mortgage affect my TDSR?
If you are purchasing a secondary investment property, the prospective mortgage loan must be factored into your total monthly obligations. If you have existing rental income from another property, banks typically apply a 30% haircut to that revenue before adding it to your total gross monthly income for evaluation.
