Hello,

I am 33 years old Singapore citizen and is currently staying in a resale 5rm HDB flat in Sengkang with my wife.

I will fulfil the MOP for the flat late next year. Thinking of moving into a condo around district 19 or 21 to be near my parents.

Financially, household income is SGD13,000 per month and the monthly OA contribution is maxed for both of us. Have about 300k cash savings and should have around 100k in CPF OA after selling the house.

Will prefer near TOP or move in ready new condos so we can move in right after selling the HDB.

Afternoon,

As your MOP is in late 2017, we can only start marketing your unit somewhere nearer to it. However, if you have gotten special approval to sell, that might be another situation altogether.

Do feel free to contact me for further discussion.

Hi Sir,

With the financial information you will be able to afford an EC or a private condo comfortably. However, you will need to fulfil your MOP early next year before you are able to purchase another unit.

I have just assisted a client to appeal to HDB successfully for a waiver of their MOP. Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your situation and assist you further!

Hi,

Perhaps you could furnish me with your exact requirements and finances on hands to conduct the financial cash calculations/ progressive payments to shortlist & negotiate for the best possible price of the residences units you could otherwise consider. At the same time, I will take the opportunity to run through the key financial loan approval process, share some market insights/ provide you with recent sales transaction caveats and explain the entire procedural framework involved.

To add, there is no agent fees involved, hence my service and consultation comes at no cost ; and you are assured of being walked by step by step on the entire procedural framework - from technical matters to financial, legal matters and beyond.

Hi,
Great to have a plan up front. Suggest to look into EC at D19. Generally EC is around 20% cheaper than private condo. Pls allow me to share with you the list of condo for consideration.

To assist and advise you more in details, kindly drop me an email for me to share.

I am contactable at my mobile or email.

Dear upgrader,

Since you have mentioned that you would like to make a purchasing decision by end 2016, do take note that based on HDB regulations, you are not to enter into any form of purchase of private properties if you have not met your MOP. Therefore there should be no rush to put the purchase in place at this point of time. If your intention is to make a purchase before sale, do take note that you will be subjecting yourself to more risk or pressure to sell your HDB in such a manner, should market take any drastic turn.

In the meantime, I will advise you to speak to a banker by end 2016 to do up your financial profiling for the purchase such that when nearing MOP, you will be able to know what are the available choices that falls into your requirements and move on easily.

Good afternoon buyer,

I will love to assist you in your upgrading plans.

May I know did you obtain a housing grant when you purchased this resale 5rm flat?

Since your MOP date is Jan/ Feb 2017, I will advise to start marketing after chinese new year as the supply of buyers is usually low during the period building up to CNY. Buyers will start to be back after CNY.

In addition, I am afraid to inform you that you wont be able to ink on OTP for purchase this year as you need to fulfill MOP first before you can do so.

Your affordability should be up to $1.74m based on your household income and finances after sale of current flat but this is based on finances after sale.

Care to share what's your finances on hand?

Do share more information with me so I can come out with a upgrading plan taliored just for you.

It seems like you wish to purchase first then sell off current HDB. Do take note that you will be restricted by cooling measures if you never sell HDB (issue sale OTP) before purchase:

1) subject to 7% additional buyer's stamp duty as SC
2) if you have outstanding loan, you can only obtain max 50% loan
3) if you have utilised CF OA funds in current flat, you need to set aside basic retirement sum $80.5k in CPF OA + SA before you can use the excess fund in this purchase

I have assisted numerous clients to upgrade seamlessly without being subject to the cooling measures and time their moving plans without the need to shift to temporary accommodation during the transition.

I will be more than willing to share this with you when we meet in your convenience as I personally stay in hougang and specialise in district 19.

Hear from you soon!
