Asked by
Hello there, may I check please. I am age 41 currently and previously purchase a resale Hdb flat under single scheme at age 35. I am married in 2019. Given that my wife name is not under the current Hdb flat, is she eligible to purchase a private property under her sole name without incurring any ABSD? Thanks!

Hi.

Yes since you bought the resale HDB as a single a few years before marriage in 2019 , as long as her name is not included in the HDB as owner or occupier, she can purchase private property as a 1st residential property without ABSD.

May I have more info and requirements about your plans so to make better recommendations? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.

Warm Regards,

-- EC Sellers, Private Property Buyers Dr. Chan & Ms. Xie --

I would like to compliment Mr Ivan Ng for his professional work and effort.I sent my first post in Jan 2019 and Ivan replied promptly, so I have decided to contact Ivan for follow up. My EC was not ready for sale due to MOP (another 3 months from Jan) at that time and Ivan was able to give me advices on how to proceed from there. Initially we have decided to try to write to HDB for early sale but since it was only 3 months left, eventually we waited for another 3 months while we looked for our next property. Ivan was able to arrange for new property showroom appointment at a timely manner while helping us to list for our EC for sale. We were a bit worried when our EC sale time was longer than expected due to trade war, but Ivan was able to reassure us that our EC would sell. By November, he managed to secure a buyer for our EC. Thank you.

I would like to express my appreciation to Ivan Ng for his excellent work. Ivan is a dedicated, client-focused, patient and sincere agent. Throughout the whole process of selling and looking for our next property, he has always acted very professionally that makes my wife and I feel at ease and assured. Ivan is not a pushy and hard sales agent. Ivan listens and understands our needs and carefully guided us through. We are fortunate to have Ivan as our agent. Thank you Ivan. Read More

Hi,

1) ABSD is only applicable to the number of residential properties own in Singapore.
2) Since your wife does not own any property in Singapore she will not be subject to ABSD provided she is a citizen and this is her 1st residential property purchase.

Hope the above answer your main concerns, but if there are more query, 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

Good evening Sir,

actually HDB requires you to add your wife's name into your existing HDB once you are married.

If HDB doesnt need you to add her name in, she will be free to buy a private under her name without ABSD if she is SC.

Do approach your HDB branch office for further clarification.

Hope my sharing helps in aiding in your enquiry.

May I know how can I value add further in your property needs?

Best regards,

YT Tan

Hi Sir

1. Your wife is eligible to purchase a private property
There is no Additional Buyer's Stamp Duty (ABSD) payable if She is Singapore Citizen and her first property.
2. Is your wife intend to take loan for your purchase?
If yes, Before shortlisting project/unit, I will suggest to check in principal approval of her loan from banker.
I can connect you with reputable banker for this, free of charge and no obligation.
3. For Singaporean 1st Property, Based on $1 mill, and assuming loan is 75%
5% Cash = $50,000
20% Cash/CPF = $200,000
BSD (Cash/CPF) = $24,600
Legal fee = $2,500 (estimated)
Please contact me at (65) 96608508  and I can share the breakdown for this calculation including timeline.
4. How many bedrooms are you looking at and which area you prefer?
I have current price list, promo of every projects in Singapore and will be glad to advise you
