Good afternoon! First as a HDB property owner, you must first fulfill the 5 years MOP before you can purchase a private residential property. Secondly, as a SPR couple, you have to dispose off your HDB flat within 6 months after you possess your new private property purchase in Singapore. So you can't hold on to two properties at the same time and let alone leasing out of your HDB flat. If you decide to purchase a private condo before you sell off your HDB, you will only be eligible to loan up to 50% whereas 50% downpayment will make up of 25% cash 25% CPF/cash (have to keep a minimum sum of $74,000 in CPF OA and SA before excess can be used to finance this amount.) If not, bridging loan could be another solution if you have a valid sale OTP for your HDB. Hope it helps! Cheers!

Morning, As SPR HDB owner, you are required to sell away your HDB unit within 6 months from key collection of your private property. Do note that you are only eligible to buy private property upon fulfilling the MOP requirement. FYI Mike Lim 96929209  m52i@yahoo.com ERA Read More
