You will need to be present during completion stage. And yes, the OTP requires wet ink signatures. Consider getting a Power Of Attorney to do this instead which can facilitate ease of transaction. In addition, since you are overseas, the MOP of 5 years do not include the period which you are residing overseas. Read More

Dear buyer,
Buying a HDB flat is to live in it. So, if you will be away from SG, HDB will not accept your application. They will request you to apply when you are back permanently in SG. So, your presence during the 5yr MOP period is very important.

You might want to consider buying private condo/apartments where there is no such requirement. You can also rent them out whilst you are away. I can assist you with that.

Please contact me so that I can be of further assistance.
Cheers!

Hi Fariz,

Yes it is possible to be overseas while purchasing a resale HDB flat. Arrangements can be made to courier the documents over to your location for signing. The online endorsements as part of the HDB process can be done remotely as long as you have your singpass.

I have assisted my clients who are residing overseas to transact their properties in Singapore. Please contact me privately so that I can understand your situation better and provide you with further assistance.

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!

Good afternoon Fariz,

exercise of OTP and paperwork during HDB purchase completion will require your wet ink.

OTP can be couriered to your location for signing as for completion, POA will be most ideal if you cant make it. If not you can opt for private law firm to represent you. Probably they will send their clerk to attend the completion on your behalf.

Do take that MOP will only kickstart when you occupy your unit physically.

Hope my sharing aids in your property needs. Do contact me if you need any assistance.

Best regards,

Hi Fariz,

If you appoint a Power of Attorney, he or she can attend and sign documents on your behalf without your physical presence. This is approx $300 to $400 but you have to find someone reliable and can help you when you are away.

If no POA, only exercising of OTP and completion appointment requires your physical presence, and wet ink signature. The other procedures are done online and can be completed via singpass login.

If you appoint a law firm to act for you in the purchase, the law firm clerk can attend the completion appointment on your behalf. However you will still need to physically come down for a law firm appointment and still exercise the OTP.

Hope the above clarifies. I am well-versed with HDB and private property transactions, having helped more than 100 homeowners transit smoothly with their housing plans. Please reach out to me at 97432395  for a more in-depth discussion :)

May I have more info on your requirements so as to make better recommendations? Thanks and looking forward to chat more
