Good day to you,

HDB will exclusively recognize the Final Judgement as the official documentation for divorce.
It would be wise to consult with your lawyer regarding the agreed situation for the matrimonial flat, whether it involves selling in the open market or executing part-sales to your ex-spouse.
Once the part-sales application is submitted, you will be able to determine your eligibility to buy your next HDB unit, with the HFE Letter.

You may wish to consult a lawyer in this case since you do not have any legal representation as you have mentioned.

Was there no discussion whatsoever in the divorce proceedings so far?

Hi Mdm,

In the judgement, there should be instructions on the assets distribution. It is recommended that you engage a lawyer to handle your divorce for you to best protect your interests. It is important to have agreements stated down in black and white so that it can be enforced thru the court in the future.

Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your situation better and provide you with further assistance.

Testimonial from my Clients
Nick is THE absolute best agent, guide to navigating the property market in Singapore. From selling to buying, he manages to get the absolute highest when selling and negotiators to the absolute lowest when purchasing. (So double win for me!). In fact, I bought my new home at the absolute lowest transaction across all the transacting homes. Most agents would just give vanilla advice, he puts scrutiny into every potential choice we were making by advising potential gains, rental yields, back up plans. I think we went through a whole list of more than 20 + before narrowing down to a few high potential properties! Super responsive to our questions and handheld us through the process and even answered questions in the middle of the night. Would absolutely recommend working with Nick for anyone looking to buy, sell or just advice!
Kenneth (Seller and Buyer) Jan 2025

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, Read More

1. HDB only accepts the **Final Judgment** as proof of divorce—no other document carries legal weight in this context.
2. It's important to seek legal advice to clarify the flat arrangement—whether you’re selling it fully or transferring a share through part-sale.

QUOTE OF THE DAY " In negotiations, the most important thing is not to win or lose, but to find a solution that is mutually beneficial."
3. After submitting a part-sale application, your eligibility to purchase another flat can be assessed through the **HFE Letter** process.

**“Justice cannot be for one side alone, but must be for both.” – Eleanor Roosevelt** Read More

Thanks for sharing your situation — I know it’s not easy navigating this alone. Since the HDB flat ownership wasn’t mentioned in your interim judgment, and HDB requires the final judgment or court order to clearly state what happens to the flat, it’s crucial that this is included before the final judgment is extracted.

Without it, you may face more delays or rejections when trying to transfer ownership or apply for a new flat. You might want to approach the Family Court Registry or seek basic legal advice (some organisations offer free legal clinics) to request an amendment or supplemental order that includes the HDB arrangement.

If you'd like help understanding your next steps or someone to walk you through your housing options, feel free to reach out. I’m here if you need support.

Hi,

1) There are nothing can be done until the final court order is out.
2) Your spouse has to apply for an HFE once the final court order is released.
3) He has to state that he wished to execute a part-share purchase in the HFE. The HFE will determine how much he could loan more on top of his outstanding loan.
4) It is only fair to you that you should sell your shares to him at the market rate.
5) Go through the normal process of selling, submit an intent to sell on web.
6) Negotiate the price and issue an OTP, follow by submitting for a valuation as per normal sales.
7) If the valuation is too much higher or lower than the expected. Both of you can negotiate to determine the final price and re-issue a fresh OTP after the existing expire.
8) After the new valuation result is out, exercise the OTP as per normal and follow the instructions from the HDB.
9) You should also apply for an HFE at the same time when the final court order is released if you are eligible to do so.
10) The HDB will not interfer on whether you are selling the whole flat or doing a part-share since it is not stated in the court document. They will request for both the interim and final court order for their filing.

All The Best!!!
