Consider the following options for my IDR 200 million.

Buying a house ๐Ÿ”—

  • A decent home in Yogyakarta costs around 700,000,000.
  • Using the BTN rate, assuming an 8-year mortgage tenor, 6.75% fixed interest for 2 years, and 13% floating interest for 6 years, the monthly installments would be 5,864,026 for the first two years and 7,495,300 for the next six years.
  • Taking the weighted average of the monthly installments, the result is 7,291,391.

Renting a home and investing the money ๐Ÿ”—

Investing ๐Ÿ”—

  • If I invest the 200 million at a 15% yearly return, I would have 611,804,573 in eight years.
  • Assuming a 6% housing inflation rate, the house price would be 1,115,693,652.
  • To afford this, I would need to save 503,889,080, which translates to a monthly savings target of 3,059,030.

Reting ๐Ÿ”—

  • Assuming a current monthly rent is 2,000,000 and a 30% monthly rate increase after four years, I would have an average monthly rent of 2,300,000 over eight years.
  • Adding the monthly savings target to the rent price, my monthly expenses would be 3,059,030 + 2,300,000 = 5,359,030.

Conclusion ๐Ÿ”—

In conclusion, assuming a 6% housing inflation rate, 15% yearly return on investment, 6.75% fixed interest for 2 years, and 13% floating interest for 6 years, my monthly expenses would be 7,291,391 for a mortgage, 5,359,030 for renting and saving towards a future home purchase.
