Hi,

I think it may not be a concern, as typically the hdb resale process takes about 4-6 months (including viewings) to complete and get keys, which is likely at the end of year. Once the process is midway, can start to make arrangements for the school swap.

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,

(Client's Testimonials)

HDB BTO 4rm Sellers Mr. Farvin & Ms. Sel --

Ivan was the first agent that we met up with and right from the offset we had good vibes as he has a friendly personal approach, detailed working style and focuses on building the long-term relationship.

Our unit comes with its challenges but Ivan remained positive and had no qualms committing to our plans right from the start. It took only 6 weeks of aggressive marketing for him to secure a good offer which was a pleasant surprise in the end.

Ivan was always responsive and we had no worries to pass him the house keys. The whole process was transparent and hassle free, and he was always thinking from our point of view on how to make life easier for the client. He is a committed professional and has fast execution, so we felt assured that things are done well and we can entrust the sale process entirely to him.

--- HDB Flat Upgraders Mr. & Mrs. Lee ---

We decided to engage Ivan as our agent as we were impressed with how he answered the enquiries on property guru website.

He has helped us to find our ideal unit and also sold our current unit. He was very patient and never pushy when we were looking for our ideal unit. He would tell us that it is always important to find a unit that we really liked.

When it comes to selling of our unit, he was always prompt in arranging for viewings and he also tried his best to arrange and consolidate the viewings due to our time constraints. He is a reliable and prompt agent and is always willing to clarify any concerns and questions that we have.

Thanks Ivan! :)

--- HDB Flat Sellers Mr. Hayum and Ms. Azizah ---

Ivan has justified our faith in appointing him as our Exclusive Agent. He transacted our unit at 620k, above valuation & highest price ever achieved for our block, within 2 months.

In a slow market, you need a proactive & committed agent who puts the extra effort. Besides advertising in papers & online intensively, he also had personally distributed flyers & spoke to potential buyers in neighboring blocks to increase exposure. Every week there were viewings & feedback.

He actually secured 2 attractive offers but assessed that the 2nd one will be a more smooth transaction. We're glad to have proceeded with his advice for a successful completion. Throughout he was professional and responsive. We wish him a great career and will be happy to recommend his services Read More

Good morning,

The standard resale timeline takes about 3.5 to 4 months to complete. As you are purchasing another unit as well, the whole process might take around 4 to 5 months. By then, after renovation, your child should be preparing the his P4. Once the OTP for purchase have being inked, you can start to contact the respective schools for posting.

Do feel free to contact me for further discussion.

Dear Sir/Mdm,

The whole resale process takes about 5 to 6 months to complete. If you were to secure a buyer today, the first appointment will be sometime in Aug with the completion in Oct or Nov.

Therefore, it may not disrupt your child's school schedule. Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your full situation and help you plan out the timeline!

good day sir / madam .

As per your question , it would take at least 4months for the hdb legal paperwork of buying and selling , realistically it would take at least 5months if add in time to search for a replacement hdb , marketing your hdb and renovation etc .

As for interim accomodation, You may negotiate for a 3months extension stay for your family in your 4room hdb , if your buyer is agreeable .

The timeline indicate it is ideal for your son to start jan2018 in his new school , along his new home .

Kindly contact me for a no-obligations chat for your property needs .
