Is your co-owner also a SPR or Singapore Citizen?

We will need more details like whether you have any outstanding loan for the current property, the estimated selling price of this property as well as the estimated purchase price of the next property in order to work out the feasibility. In addition, why are you looking to change an existing 4 room flat to another 4 room flat?

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 14 years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

We are offering our clients a complimentary first consultation without obligations (Absolutely FREE!). Schedule for your FREE session today!

Hi Sir/Mdm,

It is possible to sell the current 4 room flat and purchase another 4 room flat. However, it is important to calculate and find out how much sale proceeds that you can get back from this sale and together with the loan that you are eligible for and the CPF refund, what is a comfortable price to purchase for the next flat.

You are not allowed to use your special account for the purchase of flat. Based on your age and income, your eligible loan should be about in the region of 190k.

Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your requirements better and provide you with further assistance.

Regards,

Testimonial from Satisfied Clients
“We have the privilege to work with Nick on our recent house purchase and we are extremely grateful for all the help he rendered to make the purchase a seamless experience!

Nick is attentive to all the requirements we have for our purchase and in the short span of time, he was able to provide us with potential shortlisted units that meet our criteria. (A big lifesaver for family with young kids and limited availability!) When conducting a viewing, Nick is highly proactive as he can be seen taking notes, asking questions, checking the conditions (that we missed or never thought of) and etc.

Overall, Nick remains reactive and portrays professionalism in this entire process. We would definitely recommend him to our friends and family who are looking for their next home/move opportunity.”

Jeannie & Victor (Buyer)

“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.”
Susana (Buyer)

“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!!”
Mr and Mrs Chan (Sold and Bought a property through Nick)

“We are very grateful to Nick for his extensive marketing efforts. With his comprehensive marketing plan, he helped us to achieve a record selling price within 2 weeks of listing our property for sale! We highly recommend his service to anyone who is keen to sell their properties.”
Mr & Mrs Wong (Property Seller)

“Nick has conducted himself ethically and professionally when handling the sales of our property. Thanks to his patience and perseverance, we managed to secure a sales price beyond our expectations.
We are very happy and satisfied with his services and will definitely recommend him to our friends and family in the future.”

My Answer with regards to your Question:

Here's an estimate to help you with your HDB flat situation, but it's important to note these are approximations:

Selling Your Current Flat:

Estimated Selling Price: It's difficult to provide an exact selling price without considering factors like location, floor level, flat size, and renovation condition. However, you can research similar 4-room flats in your area recently sold on HDB's website (https://services2.hdb.gov.sg/webapp/BB33RTIS/) or PropertyGuru (https://www.propertyguru.com.sg/) to get a general idea.

CPF Usage: Upon selling your flat, the CPF used for your initial purchase and any housing grants received will be returned to your CPF Ordinary Account (OA).

Estimated CPF:

Current CPF: You mentioned having S$170,000 in your CPF, likely including the CPF used for your current flat's purchase.

Returned CPF: After selling, the CPF used for the downpayment and any grants will be returned to your OA. Let's assume (hypothetically) this amount is S$100,000 (actual amount may vary).

Total CPF (Estimate): After selling, your CPF OA would be approximately S$170,000 (existing) + S$100,000 (returned) = S$270,000 (estimated).

Buying a New Flat:

Downpayment: HDB requires a minimum downpayment of 25% of the purchase price for resale flats.

Eligibility for Loan: Your age (51) and monthly salary (S$4500) might affect the maximum loan amount you can qualify for from HDB or a bank. You can use HDB's affordability calculator (https://services2.hdb.gov.sg/webapp/BP27MaxLoan/BP27PMax1.jsp) for a rough estimate (consider it a starting point, not a guaranteed amount).

Using CPF for New Flat:

CPF Usage: You can use your CPF OA savings for the downpayment and monthly mortgage payments for your new flat.

Important Considerations:

Eligibility for Grants: Your eligibility for CPF housing grants for your new flat purchase may depend on factors like your income, citizenship status (PR), and family composition. Check HDB's website for details (https://www.hdb.gov.sg/residential/buying-a-flat/understanding-your-eligibility-and-housing-loan-options/flat-and-grant-eligibility).

Additional Costs: Remember to factor in additional costs associated with buying a resale flat, such as agent fees, valuation fees, legal fees, and renovation costs.
