Good morning Vickie,

As you need to fulfil your minimum occupation period of 5 years before you will be eligible to purchase a private property thus your alternative will be purchasing a private property solely under your boyfriend's name.

But do take note that he is a foreigner thus he will be subject to 15% additional buyer's stamp duty.

If not, you can try to appeal to HDB to see whether can you remove your name from your current property. It will be on a case by case basis.

Hope my explanation helps!

If you guys need assistance or advice in your private property purchase, feel free to contact me. Cheers!

Warmest Regards,

Hi,

He can opt for private property, however will be subjected to 18% taxes. Nonetheless, we could always work out strategies and projects that waive these taxes as a solution. I am highly trained and experienced in the private property market and will be able to guide you step by step on the procedure. Plus, there is no agent fees involved. My consultation and service comes free!
