Hi,
I now am staying in an executive condo.
With 2 daughters married with children , we find we need to have more rooms.
So plan to find a 5 room HDB flat 1 unit and another 4 room flat 1 unit side by side . So that we can convert the 2 units into a jumbo flat . A corner 5 room + a 4 rm flat side by side is a perfect deal. Also like to understand policy/ procedure of HDB requirements.
Will there be such units , i.e 5 rms flat + a 4 room flat side by side in the East. Hope to hear from U.
Tq.

Hi,

You can consider Jumbo flats, and there are some available in Tampines/Bedok but very limited. Its typically 4rm + 3rm configuration and already combined together.

If you purchase 5 and 4rm units individually in the same block as 2 different family entities, its possible but whether it can be combined and converted is subjected to hdb approval. Furthermore, its not always so good timing where 2 units side by side are up for sale.

May I understand your plans further so to make better recommendations? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.

Warm Regards,

Good morning Mimi,

It wont be easy to find two units side by side that are on sale at the same time.

Perhaps you can look into jumbo units instead. Will you be keen to explore this option?

Afternoon,

HDB does not allow the conversion of 5 room and 4 room flat into a jumbo unit. The maximum allowable based on the housing policy is 4 room and 3 room flat. Hence you might want to consider getting a jumbo unit in Yishun or Woodlands.

Do feel free to contact me for further discussion.

Hi,

To be practical vs present smaller units created in the market. You need to serious consider to purchase 2 units at the same block to fulfill your requirement instead of side by side. Which is likely not possible.

Hi Mimi,

There are a number of Jumbo units available for sale in Bedok and Tampines area. Majority of these units are 3rm flat combined with 4 rm flat.

I will advise you to purchase a jumbo unit instead as they are considered 1 flat as compared to buying a unit first and wait for the neighbouring unit to be available for sale.

Please feel free to contact me if you need me to shortlist some jumbo units for you!
