Asked by
We are staying in a condo and thinking to downgrade to buy a hdb from open market. we bought the condo in year 2012. I'd like to know if:-
- If the period of staying in condo less than 5 year, would this affect stamp duty that we're going to pay when sell the condo?
- How much is the estimated stamp duty that I have to pay when sell the condo (Estimate Selling Price @ 820k)?
- How much is the estimated stamp duty that I need to pay when purchase resale HDB flat (Estimate Purchase Price @ 450K)?
- How much is the agent fee?
- Are we eligible to get CPF grant if monthly household income exceed 12k?

Thank you in advance.

Good morning,

Let me assist you with your queries.

1) Do take note that you will be subject to seller's stamp duty if you own the property for less than 4 years and you sell it in the resale market.

Since you purchased it in 2012, most likely you wont be subject to SSD if you sell it 4 years from your purchase date (date you exercised OTP).

Care to share your purchase date so I will be in a better position to advise and assist you further?

2) As I mentioned you might not be subject to SSD but if you are subject to 4% in the 4th year of ownership, It will be around $32.8k if based on sale price $820k.

3) If your household has at least one Singaporean, you will pay the normal buyer' stamp duty duty which is around 3%.

Stamp duty will be $8.1k if based on purchase price $450k.

If both of you are SPRs, then you will need to pay additional buyer' stamp duty of 5%.

4) Standard agent's commission for property sale is 2% of sale plus 7% GST while HDB purchase is 1% of purchase price plus 7% GST.

5) If you are a first timer but your combined income is more than $12k, you are not eligible for housing grant.

Hope my sharing is beneficial to your property needs.

May I know how can I continue to value add in your downgrading plans?
