Hi,

BTO stands for Build to Order i.e. new HDB Flats. HDB Resale refers to the units sold by existing owners.

If you need help in getting your HDB flat, drop me a message @ 8118 4108  and i will be able to assist you.

Hi Phang Ching,

HDB flats are public housing. New flats direct from HDB are named BTO. There are SERS flats too. DBSS flats are built by developers, but sold only to qualified Singaporean similarly to BTO flats, you will need to form a family nucleus to purchase.

Whatever flats you searched on listing portals are considered resale HDB flats, as HDB does not list their BTO flats in property portals for Buyers.

I am experienced and well-versed in HDB resale transactions. I will be able to assist you in your flat purchase. Please get in touch with me for a more in-depth discussion.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Hi Phang Ching,

1) BTO: Build To Order. These are the new flat selling by HDB. Household income kept to $12k.
2) Resale: Sell by existing owner. HDB portal is explaining the process and grants available for group of SC/PR who can't wait for few years or even 'luck' to come by to be selected for the BTO.
3) DBSS: Design Build Sales Scheme. These are design, build and sell by developer. The design is closely resemble of the private where majority of the reno are ready. Only lightings and furniture are needed to shift in. Household income kept to $12k.
4) EC: Executive Condominium. These are for SC/PR whose household income>$12k but <$14k. Exactly the same as private, in fact, it would automatic privatise upon reaching 10 years. Meaning can sell to foreigner. The above 3 types are still following HDB eligibility.
5) SBF: Sales of Balance Flat: These are flats bounce out from BTO, meaning no taker. Household income kept to $12K.
6) ROF: Re-Offer of Balance Flat: These are flats bounce out from SBF exercise. Household income kept to $12K.

7) Buy a new HDB is refer to HDB BTO/SBF/ROF.
