Understanding SBR Home Loans

What is SBR?

SBR (Singapore Benchmark Rate) is a floating interest rate benchmark calculated by the Association of Banks in Singapore (ABS). It is based on the average rates of major Singapore banks and reviewed monthly. SBR-based home loans have rates that move with this benchmark.

SBR vs SORA vs Fixed Rate

  • SBR: Monthly review, based on bank rates
  • SORA: Daily rate, more transparent, now preferred
  • Fixed: Rate locked for 2-5 years, higher initial rate
  • SORA is now the main benchmark replacing SBR/SIBOR

Singapore LTV Limits

  • HDB (HDB Loan): Up to 80% LTV
  • HDB (Bank Loan): Up to 75% LTV
  • Private (1st property): Up to 75% LTV
  • Private (2nd property): Up to 45% LTV
  • Private (3rd+): Up to 35% LTV

Tips for Borrowers
