Dear agents,
My dad is turning 55 in Nov and my mom is 50 this year. They are thinking of selling their 4rm HDB in Jurong and purchase a resale in AMK/Hougang (within 4km range to my grandma) at a lower price range.
1. Understand that one is to set aside funds into the retirement acc if they were to sell away their house after age 55. Is this 55yo considered based on the year they were born in OR based on their birthday? For instance, my dad is turning 55 in Nov this year and they would like to avoid the above situation as he would love to use the CPF funds to re-purchase another flat. Is it still possible for him to sell?
2. Is the 55 years old criteria based on one individual or both? I.e. My Mom is only 50 years old. Does it mean we still have time to sell the flat?
Appreciate if you will be able to advise. Do leave your contact behind as we will be looking for professional agent to help us out if we can sell the house before the 55 years old issue. Thank you!
