Hi, I have questions regarding renting from HDB owners.
(1) Can I rent from a HDB owner their whole flat for someone else? i.e. I will be the renter/'tenant', but I won't be living in the flat, but my grandparent and his caregiver will be.
(2) What is required of me to be a tenant besides being a Singapore Citizen and not having owned a HDB? e.g. Financial Statements, Employment Status, etc.
(3) What is the allowed HDB size for a person and his foreign domestic worker (two persons) to live in? I heard that 1-2 room flats will not be allowed due to the compromised quality of living for the caregiver.
(4) Provided that my credit score will not be negative and all is good with it, will renting a HDB from a HDB owner affect my chances for renting (a second time) in the future? Or buying a HDB in the future? e.g. Subsidies, First Time Buyer, etc.
(5) Are there any other concerns or information I should take note of as a potential renter? e.g. future prospects of renting of buying HDB.
