Good day to you,

The grant dispersed to facilitate the purchase of the first BTO unit will be transferred into the respective OA and can be utilized for the next purchase. With the second BTO, you must pay the HDB resale levy. You will be granted a lower loan quantum as 50% of the cash proceeds from the sale of the first BTO need to be used to pay for the second BTO purchase.

Hi Sir/Mdm,

The CPF housing grant given to you for your first HDB flat will be returned to your CPF OA together with the accrual interests when you sell the flat. However do take note that if you buy a 2nd BTO, you will be subjected to the resale levy. The levy amount is determined by the type of your current HDB flat.

Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your considerations and assist you further!

Regards,

Testimonial from my Clients
Nick was introduced to me by a friend who learned that my previous property agent wasn’t meeting my expectations. During our first phone call, Nick quickly grasped my concerns and provided a detailed financial plan the next day. Since switching to Nick, selling my house has been much more relaxed. His virtual tour and informative fact sheet eliminated the need for my family and me to be constantly present for viewings by unsuitable buyers.
Nick was invaluable in purchasing my next property. He sourced units within my budget and analysed price trends of condo projects I was interested in. With Nick’s assistance, the buying process was seamless, and he expertly coordinated the sale of my current unit with the purchase of the next. Kudos to Nick for his outstanding service and advice!
Eileen Chen (Seller) June 2024

During Nick’s presentation to us, he showed confidence and resourcefulness. He showed us his various methods of reaching out to potential buyers instead of just relying on Propertyguru. He also saw the potential of our home to sell at our projected price. Where other agents deem impossible to achieve, he did his analysis and deems it reasonable and achievable. Nick proves trustworthy. From time to time, Nick will update us on the progress and on any viewing. He will filter buyers who could not meet our asking price and provide update and advice on the offers. We are grateful that he helps us to negotiate for a good price for our home. In summary, Nick is dedicated, resourceful, trustworthy and willing to take challenges.
Sunny Ng (Seller) April 2024

Selling our house was a pretty stressful ordeal, as we have already committed to buying our new home and hence have a timeline to meet. Losing a substantial deposit and worse still, not getting our dream home caused many sleepless nights as we are nearing our deadline. I am very glad we have decided to switch to Nick and seek his help after the dismal performance of our first agent. Not only is Nick very patient in explaining things to us, time and time again he gives us reassurance to allay our worries. And he walked his talk.
With his help, we finally managed to sell our unit at a price within our expectations, before the deadline. Nick’s service is top notch – he is knowledgeable in his field, swift to respond, easy to communicate with and extremely accommodating.
Thank you very much once again Nick, for this smooth transaction!

### Summary of HDB BTO Purchase Guidelines

1. **Grant Transfer**
The grant provided for your first BTO unit will be deposited into your CPF Ordinary Account (OA) and can be used for future purchases.

2. **Resale Levy for Second BTO**
When purchasing a second BTO, you must pay a resale levy. Additionally, you’ll receive a reduced loan amount since 50% of the cash from selling your first BTO will be applied toward the second purchase.

3. **Refund of Housing Grant**
Upon selling your first HDB flat, the CPF housing grant will be returned to your CPF OA along with any interest earned. However, remember that purchasing a second BTO will incur a resale levy, which varies based on the type of your current HDB flat.

Hello,

Here’s what you need to know regarding grants for a second BTO purchase:

- If you received an HDB grant for your first BTO, it won't be transferred back to CPF for use on the second BTO.
- The grant you initially received is a one-time benefit and isn't reusable for subsequent HDB purchases.
- If you sell your first BTO, the grant amount used will be refunded back to your CPF Ordinary Account, together with any accrued interest.
- For a second BTO, you'll need to meet the eligibility criteria for any new grants, which are usually lower compared to first-time buyers.
- Do check with HDB for any available grants specific to second-timers, like the **Step-Up Grant** for those upgrading from a 2-room to a 3-room flat.

Thank you.

The housing grant amount will be refunded back to your CPF account after the sales of your current place. Take note that you will also be subjected to resale levy for 2nd BTO too and the resale levy is to be paid in cash. Read More

Good morning,

It will be refunded to your CPF OA and eligible for next property purchase.

But do take note that you will be subject to resale levy if you decide to buy another subsidized flat (BTO or new EC).
