Hi,

The cash required depends on the loan you can attain and how much CPF you have. Yes ABSD is payable hence stamp duties of 8% applies. Other costs include hdb admin fees, legal fees and agent commission. Have both of you hold SPR status for 3 years each? Only such cases can apply for resale HDB. Thanks and hope to assist with your purchase further.

Warm regards

Afternoon,

You will only be eligible to purchase resale HDB unit if both of you have being holding to SPR status for more than 3 years. Cash payable will be 5% ABSD and 5% down payment (with 80% loan). Things like valuation report, HDB admin fee and miscellaneous expenses will sum up to around $1k. Legal fee, stamp duty of 3% and 15% down payment can be paid with CPF. Whatever shortfall will need to be top up with cash.

Do contact me should you require additional assistance.
