Dear Mdm,
It may not be advisable to keep your HDB and pay the ABSD as it will take many years for you to recover the tax that you paid with your rental income. Moreover, statistics have shown that as your flat aged, the value will also depreciate.
You may want to consider a new launch to invest in as you may not need to decide whether you want to sell the HDB now as you will have until TOP to decide should you want to sell the flat and get back the ABSD.
Getting a new condo will also enable you to enjoy a higher potential of capital appreciation in the future. I am happy to show you and share with you more on the information and data I have gathered to support my view.
Regards,
Nick Tan
