Joseph22 Turbocharged April 4, 2012 Share April 4, 2012 oohhh Danke Sehr, i am outdated dont worry not you updated, its HDB rule super confusing and always changing. Anyway because of this rule, it doesnt make sense to buy small flat. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windwaver Turbocharged April 4, 2012 Share April 4, 2012 If you bought first 3rm without any form of grant then it may be possible no need levy. Must make sure no subsidy at all for 1st resale flat. To confirm, better check with HDB hotline. Oh, sorly huh, lost touch with this liao. Aiya, just go buy EC, save all the trouble Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leclair 3rd Gear April 4, 2012 Share April 4, 2012 if your first flat was a hdb-direct or with grant, and you dont want to pay Resale levy then you cannot but another HDB-direct or with grant. your options will be 1. private 2. dbss/ec, 3. resale without any grant 4. move in with relatives/friends etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venco25 Neutral Newbie April 5, 2012 Share April 5, 2012 (edited) So if TS had bought his 1st subsidised flat from HDB & bought a DBSS/EC as a 2nd flat, does it mean he can still buy direct from HDB (eg BTO etc)? this is old rule liao. now rule change. as long as its HDB you have to pay resale levy. regardless of type of flat. only upgrade they consider is DBSS and EC Edited April 5, 2012 by Venco25 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph22 Turbocharged April 5, 2012 Share April 5, 2012 So if TS had bought his 1st subsidised flat from HDB & bought a DBSS/EC as a 2nd flat, does it mean he can still buy direct from HDB (eg BTO etc)? if bought DBSS and EC direct from HDB is consider using a 2nd chance to get flat from HDB so 2 chance use liao. HDB mandate that we can take up to 2 house from HDB direct. so 2nd one take DBSS or EC is consider 1 chance. Also another thing to note. last time if you are living in 4 room, you want to take new flat from HDB you have to take 5 room. down grade cannot. but in recent years got ppl complain saying they need to downgrade from 5 room to 4 room because of varies reason cannot get from HDB. so HDB remove the ruling of needing to upgrade to bigger flat to qualify.

Luckcent 4th Gear September 24, 2012 Share September 24, 2012 Wah..I blur liao....Now on this scenario.....I sold my 4 rm flat ( no subsidy hor ) long time ago and also I did not pay any levy. Went to pte. and now I want to buy 3 rm flat ( from open market ) So in this scenario of downgrading, do I have to pay any levy ? How do I know the 3 rm flat is subsidized or not.

How do I know the 3 rm flat is subsidized or not. your 4 room is from HDB or from open market?? if from HDB then its still consider subsidy flat. as for 3 Room. open market not subsidized, but question is, are you allow to buy so fast?? cannot remember clearly, but remember there is a 6 month rule on pte convert to HDB.

Open Market -> No Waiting Time Direct HDB -> Need to wait 30 months Resale or New -> As long buy HDB, within 6 months upon completion of HDB purchase, have to sell private RESIDENTIAL properties, hope this clarifies ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
