My neighbour is the first owner of a 4A HDB bought directly from HDB at about $100,000.He claims if he were to sell his flat at current market price of about $400,000 he'll be liable to pay the government levy of $100,000(25% of sale proceeds of $400,000).Is this true?

Good morning, I would have some informations about renting a flat in Singapour. Indeed I may be expat from my company but I may take a personal lease : - How much is the stamp duty for a flat between S$3000 & S$ 4000 ? should it be paid only once or every year ? - How much is your agency commission ? - How much is the average monthly maintenance charge (for a rent max S$4000)? - Most of your proposals for renting are partially or fully furnished ? When it is fully furnished, is there a percentage of lease in the rent ? or any special tax ? Thanks a lot & regards, Elodie P.

Think back, 30-40yrs back, a 20000sqft detached house in Nassim road costs S$80K-S$90K, but at current situation, it costs min S$20M. So, what is the percentage of return? Imagine, if you buy say a 99yrs super high end condo at S$29M for say 5178sqft which translate into S$5600psf. Usually, before it T.O.P, it takes 2-3yrs. So minus the remaining lease it is about 96yrs lease from T.O.P, what is the upside of this super high end condo? Assuming the ultra rich owner never sell, per year basis, it depreciate by S$302K, wow ! it is a lot like deprciating a 4rm flat on per yr basis. But if you buy say a S$20M 20000sqft detached in cluny park, what is the upside. To me, to appreciate to S$30M is within reach given the fact that a FH Land-Title Landed property own this piece of 20000sqft land whereas Strata-Title FH condo does not own any land except it merely share the land with its neighbour, be it very exclusive 35 tenants or not so exclusive 2000 tenants? What is your comment?

I presently own a 4 RM HDB flat and my parents would like to shift nearer so as to be closer and can take care of grandsons.If they will to buy direct from HDB(DSSB flats) will they also be entitled to the $40,000 grant or should I transfer my falt to them and go ahead to buy direct from HDB to be entitled to the $40,000 grant since I did not make full use of the grant during my first purchase of the 4 RM HDB flat.Appreciate your reply

Hi, We are going to relocate in Singapore beginning of August (probably for 10 years). We are studying the possibilities of purchasing a 2 or 3 bedroom appartment in Dover or nearby, with a maximum budget of 700,000 Sing dollars if we can get a 80% mortgage. 1)Is it possible to find any freehold or 999 years flat at this price? 2) On the other hand, if we buy a 15-year old or more flat with a 99-year lease,does it mean there is only 84 years or less left on it, and where would that leave us if we want to resell in another 10 years? Would the sale still enable us to refund the rest of the loan, or would the flat have depreciated too much because of the few remaining years? Thanks for your comments.
