The CFF is based on the principle of “enjoy today, pay in the future” and monies are only deducted when you sell your property.
The CFF is simply calculated as 2% per annum of the re-sale price of your apartment when it is sold. This fee is payable for each year or part year of occupation and is capped at 10 years.
