Leverage your EPF retirement savings to facilitate residential property ownership.
Overview
The Employees Provident Fund (EPF) provides a facility for members to utilize savings from Account 2 (Akaun Sejahtera) to subsidize the acquisition or construction of a residential property. This strategic withdrawal is designed to alleviate the financial commitment associated with homeownership.
Eligible Withdrawal Categories
1. Residential Property Acquisition
Withdraw funds from Account 2 to finance the initial purchase of a residential property, effectively reducing the required out-of-pocket capital.
2. Residential Construction
Participate in a consultation or interview with the bank or financial institution’s credit officer.
3. Housing Loan Redemption or Reduction
Apply EPF savings toward the partial reduction or full settlement of an existing housing loan to minimize interest costs and shorten the repayment tenure.
