“Nick provides a delightful customer experience from day one when I engage him as my agent to look for a flat of my choice to the completion of the deal. He is competent, resourceful and has a pleasant manner to work with. He is the Agent of my choice in dealing with properties and I would highly recommend him to others who would appreciate an agent that takes care and can give the customer a peaceful mind.”

“Nick is very pro-active in helping us to resolve whatever questions and problems that we encountered. All the issues are settled even before us having to request or ask for a second time. He was very frank and transparent with all the details, limitations and advantages that we wouldn’t have known. I think this is the most important virtue to be successful in this line. I will surely recommend him to anyone who needs his service because I trust that they will be equally satisfied!!”

-- EC Sellers, Private Property Buyers Dr. Chan & Ms. Xie --

I would like to compliment Mr Ivan Ng for his professional work and effort.I sent my first post in Jan 2019 and Ivan replied promptly, so I have decided to contact Ivan for follow up. My EC was not ready for sale due to MOP (another 3 months from Jan) at that time and Ivan was able to give me advices on how to proceed from there. Initially we have decided to try to write to HDB for early sale but since it was only 3 months left, eventually we waited for another 3 months while we looked for our next property. Ivan was able to arrange for new property showroom appointment at a timely manner while helping us to list for our EC for sale. We were a bit worried when our EC sale time was longer than expected due to trade war, but Ivan was able to reassure us that our EC would sell. By November, he managed to secure a buyer for our EC. Thank you.

-- HDB Yishun BTO 5-RM Sellers, Private Property Upgraders Mr. & Mrs. Koh --

I would like to express my appreciation to Ivan Ng for his excellent work. Ivan is a dedicated, client-focused, patient and sincere agent. Throughout the whole process of selling and looking for our next property, he has always acted very professionally that makes my wife and I feel at ease and assured. Ivan is not a pushy and hard sales agent. Ivan listens and understands our needs and carefully guided us through. We are fortunate to have Ivan as our agent. Thank you Ivan. Read More

Hi,

1) My suggestion is to set up a trust for your son so that the funds earn in the trust can be used for his needs.
2) But if you plan to buy a property and put it in the trust, you will have to use cash only for the property.
3) CPF funds cannot be used for property in a trust.
4) For more detail on how a trust works, it is best to consult a lawyer.
5) You may read this article over trust to get an idea:

Hope the above answer to your main concerns, but if there are more query, please feel free to contact me at 90110636  , or email: ling.ck7@gmail.com if more information is needed.
I'll be glad to assist.

Dear Buyer,
Since your son is 22, it is easy to do what you are planning to do. There is this method called 99/1 where your son takes 99% stake and you take 1%. By doing this, you can legally purchase a home for him using all your cash n CPF at your disposal and paying the minimum ABSD.

Do call me.
Cheers!

Hi Sir,

This is possible, but in terms of ABSD, it will be tricky. Do take note that avoidance of tax is a crime, hence be really careful on this.

Having said that, I may have a solution for you to consider. This solution will not get you into trouble with IRAS, and it may also be a more feasible solution for you and your family.

I am experienced and well-versed in both HDB and private transactions. I will be able to assist you in your property plans. Please get in touch with me for a more in-depth discussion.

Should you need require further assistance in matters relating to property, please contact me at my mobile 9748 6305  . I will be happy to assess and share with you the possibilities for you in the current market.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Dear Owner,

You are a good father planning ahead for your son. I feel for you as a parent and hope I am able to assist you and your son. Your plan to purchase using 99/1 where your son takes 99% and you take 1% share of the home is feasible since your son has met the legal age. Alternatively, you can also purchase under a trust as well but this will require full cash.

Perhaps we can meet up for a discussion? Please feel free to call me at 9436 5945  for a non obligatory discussion at your convenience? And I can share with you how I can assist you in the sales.

I am a full time active & experienced realtor in RENTING and RESALES and NEW LAUNCHES and have assisted many happy sellers in their sales of houses for the past 11 years with GOOD track record. You can take a look at my profile in our websites or even talk to our previous clients.

TESTIMONIALS from our Happy Clients:
“We'd like to thank you …for assisting with the sale of our previous flat and purchase of our current home. You have kept us regularly updated throughout the process and demonstrated integrity during negotiations and final transactions. You have basically earned our trust as truly hard-working, diligent property agents. Would gladly recommend you to others. “ Mr Nathan

“It has been our pleasure working with you for the disposal of our flat. You have put in the effort more than what you should have in helping us manage the buyers especially the Tan family.
We did also see the assistance you've provided to the Tan family where they were not represented by any agents and we've been impressed by your professionalism & not to mention the time you've taken to travel, at the buyers request, eWe appreciate your efforts
Thank you” Ms Karen
