The common issue have been discussed on homeownership is the eligibility to access the financing. However, the ability to pay the mortgage installment while maintaining basic necessities is also another issue that needs to be given an attention too. Hence, to have deep understanding on homeownership issue, this study will explore a new perspective by reviewing the repayment affordability of house buyers. This study will examine the determinants of mortgage repayment affordability among middle income households in Penang.

A total of 142 respondents have been chosen by using the convenience sampling to answer the questionnaires. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) is use to run the analysis. The findings show that non-housing expenditures are significantly affecting the mortgages repayment affordability of medium and long term house buyers. Whereas, housing expenditure only gives an impact on medium term house buyers. Hire purchase, food and non-alcoholic beverages, child expenses and personal loan variables show a significant influence of housing expenditure toward mortgage repayment affordability of the middle-income households in Penang.
