Hi there, from what i am understanding, You will be making use of the contra facilities to transit from your current HDB to your new BTO. If your estimated timeline for your new BTO is 1st Q 25. you should look to begin your selling process Dec 24 -Jan 25. Allow for enough time for viewers to view your unit therefore achieve a good selling price and also cater for enough time to achieve your aim of transfering your sales fund to your new BTO. your main concern would be 1. your funds from your current unit to your BTO and 2. your timeline to smoothly move into your BTO from your current place. drop me a text/call and we can do up a ideal timeline and financial plan for your transition. Cheers

Hi Shirley,

HDB Resale completion is about 8-10 weeks from the date of HDB's acceptance of the resale application.

I believe I would be of great assistance to help in the process, you may reach out to me via WhatsApp 9189 0029  for further discussion. To prepare yourself better, it is best to engage an agent to plan ahead and start to market soon as time is needed to find you the right buyer. If you managed to find a buyer earlier, you can state in your portion of the resale application that there is an arrangement for temporary extension of stay. This would buy you some time.

Feel free to reach out to me for further assistance, happy to share more. Thank you.

Hi, this sounds like you want to use contra facility to pay for the new BTO, which will require you to sell your existing unit before you can collect the keys to your BTO. In order for this to be achieved, a good time to start considering to market the unit would be around september-Nov (depending on key collection date) to have allowance for time for buyers to find your unit as well as for the contra to go through before your BTO key is ready.

Hi, hopefully you managed to get your doubt or query answered. If so, then congrats! Hopefully you are doing well now.

Hi,

I would be most glad to assist you further and pls feel free to let me know if you need any assistance. Have a good day ahead. By the way, it is advisable to sell a few months before the key collection of your BTO flat and in your case it be around the 3rd to 4th quarter of this year.

Hi Shirley,

I have assisted many of my clients who are in the same situation to make use of the sale proceeds and CPF refund of their current HDB to fully pay off their new BTO and also be able to transit smoothly from their old place to the new one without the need for an interim housing. With proper planning, there is some buffer time for renovation as well.

If your keys are ready in Q1 2025, I would suggest we start the marketing process closer to the end of 2024. In this way, we can ensure that we will have sufficient time to prepare the house for sale and secure the highest price possible.

Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your situation better and explain to you the timeline and procedures in greater details.

Regards,

Testimonial from Satisfied Clients

“I would like to recommend Nick Tan from SRI. Before we engaged Nick, we were working with another agent from a very popular property agency in February 2017. We decided to terminate the contract after 5 weeks of zero viewings and no paper advertisements. Basically, he was just waiting for phone calls. We engaged Nick on 20th April and by 10th of May, our unit was sold off. Why Nick? 1. He has good marketing strategies 2. He always kept us posted on what he did (communications!) 3. He made sure we understand the current market situation but he will consistently reassure us that the unit can be sold off 4. He is not greedy and trusting 5. He walks the talk”
Peter & Wendy (Property Seller)

I write to commend Nick Tan (R040814C). When my husband and I first met Nick, we were impressed by his drive, commitment, business acumen and strategical thinking, and decided to engage him. We were not disappointed. Nick sourced for prospective quality buyers in a targeted methodical fashion and was effective in connecting us with serious buyers, notwithstanding the fact that the search primarily took place over Dec – Feb (a traditional lull period). Throughout the transaction, he also gave us helpful advice in various aspects; the advice reflected his personal experience and expertise and was not simply regurgitated from public sources without any value-add. Further, Nick went beyond the call of duty of a competent professional. He had a sense of humanity in the way he interacted with myself and the other parties to the transaction such as my parents. As an example, my newborn daughter was warded into A&E on the completion date of the transaction; the care and concern that Nick showed went beyond the scope of work of an estate agent. I commend Nick for his capabilities and character, and would certainly wish to engage him for future property transactions.
Weilun & Benita (Property Seller)

“We are very grateful to Nick for his extensive marketing efforts. With his comprehensive marketing plan, he helped us to achieve a record selling price within 2 weeks of listing our property for sale! We highly recommend his service to anyone who is keen to sell their properties.”
Mr & Mrs Wong (Property Seller)

“Nick has conducted himself ethically and professionally when handling the sales of our property. Thanks to his patience and perseverance, we managed to secure a sales price beyond our expectations. We are very happy and satisfied with his services and will definitely recommend him to our friends and family in the future.”
Mr & Mrs Tan (Seller of Inter-Terrace House)

“Nick provides a delightful customer experience from day one when I engage him as my agent to look for a flat of my choice to the completion of the deal. He is competent, resourceful and has a pleasant man Read More

Hi Shirley,

Ideally, if you have done the positioning of your unit for sale right, the sales and marketing process takes under 2 months to be done, and another 8 to 10 weeks for completion, thus you may need to look into commencing the sales and marketing process about 5 months ahead of the key collection date.

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

Hi Shirley,

Looks like you need your sale proceeds to complete the purchase of the new flat and key collection. May I know which BTO project is that and is there any possibility of earlier key collection? In this case it may be ideal to market the unit for sale 3 to 6 months before the key collection, which should be around September period. This is to cater for sufficient time to find the buyer and to allow hdb processing for the sale approval and funds to come back. It may also be possible to go for the contra facility if your current hdb is not on bank loan. I am familiar with such cases and will be happy to customize a plan for you.

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

-- HDB Executive Maisonette Sellers, Mr & Mrs Yeo --

Before contacting Ivan Ng, our Property Realtor, we were quite apprehensive about our Contra-deal ( concurrent resale & purchase of HDB flats) as at that time the outlook of the resale property market was quite sluggish & pessimistic. But surprisingly our property realtor, Ivan , was able to put us at ease with his professional competence, astute work experience & friendly nature . He was able to consummate our contra-deal within one month of our HDB application. Now we are convinced by his promise that (in Ivan's own words) ... "A contra-deal is where the sale & purchase transactions are done concurrently and completed on the same day. This results in a seamless transition of the funds from your sale proceeds and CPF proceeds towards your purchase price." More importantly Ivan has also managed to clinch a good deal for our contra-deal. We'll certainly recommend him to our kins & friends. Thank you very much, Ivan. We are definitely your satisfied customers!

-- HDB Toa Payoh 5-RM Sellers of Million-Dollar HDB, Mr. & Mrs Leong

We were fortunate to have met Ivan Ng. He was thorough in going through what the complicated home-selling process required of us and more so in understanding what we would like to achieve from the sale of our unit. His responsiveness and assurance, was a trait that we really appreciate. We managed to secure a sale that exceeded our expectation with Ivan’s advises. The offered price for our unit was a record set for the flats in the neighborhood. This was definitely supported by the fact that Ivan’s listing of our unit was detailed and stood out from other listings. Because of this, we also engaged Ivan's service to help us search and buy our new resale home. After some searches and viewings, we managed to secure one at a reasonable price with his help. With Ivan’s cheery and positive demeanour, selling our unit to procuring a new one, was a smooth journey for us. It was a pleasure to have worked with him. Read More

Hi Shirley,

1) You might be able to utilize the contra-facility if you are taking an HDB loan for the BTO.
2) However, from your description it seems that you are not taking any loan for the BTO. Thus, the Temporary Loan Scheme might be more suitable for your situation.
3) Both methods will require you to complete the resale application process before being eligible for them.
4) Thus, a more precise month for the BTO key collection will be needed to time it right.
5) Otherwise, you will have to bet on your luck if we only know which quarter you are collecting your keys.
6) If you start your marketing in September 2024, and you accept an offer and submit your resale application in late September. Your completion would properly fall on later Dec 2024 or Jan 2025.
7) So, if your key collection falls after Jan 2025. It will be too late to apply for any facility from the HDB. But you can pay for the BTO with your redundant CPF.
8) If you only accept an offer at the end Nov 2024 (3 months of exclusive marketing), your completion would fall in later Feb or March 2025.
9) You should be able to make use of the facility from the HDB to ensure the refunded CPF can be used to pay for the BTO.
10) If you only accept any offer later than the end of Nov 2024, your key collection will have to be delayed until you complete the sale.
11) From the estimation of the above. You are not too early to start the marketing campaign in September 2024.

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.
