## Description

This MCP server provides deterministic tools to calculate the Singapore HDB Proximity Housing Grant (PHG). It determines eligibility and exact grant amounts based on whether you are living with parents or living near them (within 4km), as well as the specific HDB flat type selected. Use `calculate_phg_grant` to get a full eligibility report or `validate_proximity_distance` to check if a location meets the proximity radius requirement.

## Tools

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How is the grant amount determined?**
The grant amount depends on your family ties (living with or near parents) and the size of your flat. You can use `calculate_phg_grant` to see the specific amount for your situation.

**What is the maximum distance allowed for the 'living near' grant?**
To qualify for the 'living near' tier, the distance must be 4km or less. The `validate_proximity_distance` tool can verify this for you.

**Does the flat type affect the grant amount?**
Yes, for those living near parents, the grant amount scales with the flat type: 2-room flats receive 20,000 SGD, 3-room receive 30,000 SGD, and 4-room or larger receive 40,000 SGD.
