Payment Scheme
Purchasers of a new Executive Condominium have a choice of Normal Progressive Scheme (NPS) or Deferred Payment Scheme (DPS).
Deferred Payment Scheme (DPS) allows the purchaser to defer the 80% loan repayment till the project is ready for move in, i.e. received the Notice of Vacant Possession. No loan repayment is required before Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP) is served.
Usually the purchase price for Deferred Payment Scheme will be slightly higher (eg. 3% more) than the Normal Progressive Payment Scheme.
The payment schedule and the percentage of purchase price payable are illustrated in the table below:
