Property Strategy
Clarifying objectives and building a property strategy around financial priorities, lifestyle needs and time horizon.
What John looks at
- The single priority that matters most in your home journey
- Cash, CPF and loan capacity, including a buffer you keep untouched
- How long you expect to hold, and what could shorten that
- An exit plan, even for a home you call permanent
How he approaches it
The first session is about you, not listings. Once the main priority is named, every later choice is tested against it, including the plan for leaving one day.
"the number one thing that I always like to do for my clients is to understand their top one priority in terms of their home journey."John Tan
"even if a client comes to me and say that, hey John, I'm going to buy this property, it's my forever home... I would still want to plan for exit strategy for this client because things may change, lifestyle may change."John Tan
Focus
Direction before transaction.
Questions people ask
Timing alone does not answer it. John's view is that some purchases are simply not worth pursuing, and the ones that are depend on three things: entering at a price you can defend, keeping an emergency buffer, and being able to hold through a softer stretch of the market.
John: "not every property purchase is something that is worthwhile to pursue... we also have to know that what is a defensible price to enter... make sure that you have the emergency buffer, make sure that you can afford it. And make sure that you can hold it through a weaker cycle."
For many HDB owners, the biggest thing in the way is fear, not only the numbers. John works through each concern with you until the next step feels safe.
John: "the number one thing that's stopping them is actually fear ... I do have to address all these concerns to make them feel that they are safe to proceed."
