Hi Mrs. Neetu,

Will be glad to assist with the financial planning, which involves a detailed discussion preferably face to face, if you are serious about the upgrading plans.

Generally speaking purchase of condo involves a 20% downpayment and 8% stamp duties approx if its a PR purchase, with a 80% bank loan. This is provided if you have sold your hdb in the first place. With current market it is also better to secure a buyer offer for your unit. Thanks and hope to discuss further about your housing plans.

Warm regards

Good morning Neetu,

It's great hearing from you!

I will provide a brief description of the general cost for both HDB and private purchase:

1) Expenses as a HDB seller:
- $80 resale application fee
- $2k legal fees
- agent commission (2% of sale price)

2) Expenses as private purchaser:
- $3k legal fees
- stamp duties (stamp duty for mortgage, buyer's stamp duty and additional buyer's stamp duty)

Hope my explanation helps!

Probably we can meet up to discuss further on your upgrading so I will be in a better position to advise and assist you. Especially your potential sales proceeds, funds required for upgrading etc.

Hear from you soon! Cheers.

Afternoon,

Is your 5 room flat under the Design and Built scheme? When did your unit attain the TOP? What is your unit's condition, level and facing?
For the purchase, how many bedroom unit are you looking at? Any ideal sizing in mind? Are you looking at centralize location or you don't mind project that's further away from Tampines Central?

Do contact me further for detail discussion.

Hi Mrs Neetu Dhar,

Aside from the costs involved in the sale and purchase process, do take note that it is important to find out what are the financial commitments required for the upgrade, the monthly instalment, the cash outlay required for the upgrade as well as the loan amount eligible, due to the strict lending regulations.

Once all these are clear, I can take up the assignment of selling and buying with you together with my team.

Hi Mrs Neetu

cost of selling involves 2% agent fee and about 2K lawyer fee

Cost of buying would include:
20% down payment (if you want to take 80% loan)
8%-$5400 stamp duty(PR)
2.5K legal fee

Apart from the costing, timeline of selling and buying is equally important, so that you will be in smooth transition from your current house to the new house.

Please get in touch for a face to face discussion so that we can cover all aspects of the whole process.

Warmest regards
