Hi, I owned an EC putting my name and my son name as my wife wasn't a PR/SC previously. I remembered I set my wife's name as an occupier.

I'm running a business and recently I started to rent 2 HDB Flats for my staffs a total $4k per month . I'm thinking to use my wife's name to purchase a freehold condo. Can I do so with the details above?

Morning Dennis,

Only SC are eligible to purchase freehold properties in Singapore. Hence it might not be feasible should your spouse is still a SPR.

Hi Dennis,

Yes you can use her name as foreigners are eligible for most condo developments. It does look like your wife is an essential occupier for the EC purchase, which means extra stamp duties will be imposed. I would need more details to make better recommendations.

May I have more info and requirements about your plans so to make better recommendations? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.

Warm Regards,

HI Dennis,

Is your wife currently employed and has an income? Because if you were to purchase under her name with a loan, you will need her to finance for the property.

Should you need any 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,
Robbie Chen
