Are there loan restrictions with old FH units?

I am aware that 99 LH condos gets hard to sell due to loan restrictions after 20 years and later. How about FH units? 

I am not looking at en-block though.

I buy to stay but in the long run I might sell out when I retire in 10 years time. I can afford 40%+ downpayment now. 

Will banks have problem with 20+ year old FH condos? 

 

When I sell to buyers with 20% downpayment, will the loan become an issue?

As the saying goes there is a sucker born everyday.

 

For a property if you price to sell, there will always be a buyer, be it 99years or FH, even if lease left with 10 or 20 years there will be people out there willing to buy. Just like a car with remaining few months of COE, there will be someone out there interested.

 

To help you sell your property later, there is always one universal rule, location, location and location.

 

10 or 20years down the road, nobody knows what the mortgage market is like. Even the current state of things, either your property will be worth a few times more or near zero when and should North Korea play punk with their nukes.

 

The other point is, mortgage generally link to remaining years left to the lease but also to your age when you apply for a loan.

 

Realistically, the authorities and lenders (banks) will make loan quantum in line with the general affordability versus their risk appetite.

 

Dont understand your reasoning for selling at retirement when you said self use and staying long term. Unless you downgrade but then why don't you instead find a property within your needs so you need not need to sell at retirement.
