Hello, I am currently abroad but want to return to Singapore. I would like to buy a BTO. Would I be eligible for the Enhanced Grant as a first time buyer, based on my employment abroad (more than 12 months)? Thank you! Amy.

Hi,

You may try applying for the next BTO exercise and then wait for the reply from the HDB.

Dear sir/mdm,

Housing grant eligibility is based on the household income. Since your employment is overseas, the consideration could be different thus it is best to apply for HFE and see the outcome as HFE results will also indicate your grant eligibility.

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 14 years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

Hi,

1) The Enhanced Housing Grant is available based on the household income.
2) For a 1st-timer household, the maximum household income must be at or below S$9k to receive the minimum EHG amount of $5k.
3) For a Single household, the maximum household income must be at or below S$4.5k.
4) I would recommend you apply for the HFE to understand the loan & grant amount at no cost.

5) The approved HFE letter is valid for 9 months. You may buy a resale or apply for a BTO during this validity period.
6) You are not obliged to buy or apply for an HDB flat if there is nothing that catches your interest.
7) You may apply for a fresh HFE once the HFE validity lapsed.

Please give me a thumbs-up if the answer provided is relevant to your main concern. Thanks!!!

Hope the above answers your main concerns, but if there are more queries, please feel free to contact me at 90110636  , or email: ling.ck7@gmail.com if more information is needed.
I'll be glad to assist.

Best regards
