Renovation Loan Singapore

What is a renovation loan?

A renovation loan provides you with the necessary funds to cover the cost of your home renovations.

Renovation loans have a longer loan tenure than personal loans. This way, your repayment installment can be spread over a longer time period, hence making it more comfortable for you.

We all want to come back after a tiring day at work to a place of comfort and a space that we can call our own.

But we all know that renovations for home improvement do not come cheap. Tens of thousands of dollars isn’t an easy amount to save up for. This is where a QV Credit’s Renovation Loan comes in!

Tips for Taking a Renovation Loan

Use your current lender

If you currently have a home loan, you should choose to take a renovation loan from the same lender. Lenders are more likely give a better interest rate to their existing home loan customers.

Know exactly what the fees and charges on the loan are

Don’t gloss over any details. These can include interest rates, processing fees, late payment fees and any possible cancellation fee.

Don’t go for the maximum loan amount

While you might be tempted to max out the loan amount in order to get a perfect house, we strongly advise against that.

Do remember that you have to pay back the principal plus interest. Your loan assistant can advise you on further details regarding taking out a loan.

FAQ

Here are some of our Frequently Asked Questions that we get from most of our clients. Do take some time browsing through and we hope you may find the answers you are looking for!

How much house renovation loan can I get?

The cap on renovation loans is often six months of your income.

The next question is how much do you need?

Well, the loan amount also depends on several factors:

Type of home: HDB flat, EC/condo, or landed property?
Age and condition of home: The older it is, the more work needed
The extent of renovation you want: Are you happy with the current state of the house or would you prefer to start from a blank slate by hacking everything down?
Type of materials: For higher grade materials, naturally you’d have to fork out more
The contractor/interior design firm you pick: Obviously, different firms offer different rates

For customers who want more information, fill out online application and schedule a chat session with our advisors

How is a monthly installment loan different from a payday loan in Singapore?

A monthly loan involves people making a fixed monthly repayment, pegged to a fixed rate of interest, over a much longer period of time.

Yes of course you can still take out a monthly loan with us even if you have bad credit. We don’t discriminate against people with a poor credit history.

If your credit score is weak, you can always approach a QV Credit loan officer for help. We can work out the terms to ensure our loans can fulfill your financial needs and even improve your credit score.
