Hi, I’m afraid you will have to achieve a 3 year PRship first and then you be eligible to purchase a resale HDB flat together with your spouse.

Hi,

1) 2x PR must have obtained the PR status equals or more than 3 years before eligible for resale HDB flat.
2) 1xSC + 1x PR (any years) can apply for resale or BTO flats.
3) 1xSC + 1x PR (any years) are eligible for grants for resale flat.
4) You will have to dispose of any property local or overseas within 6 months of purchasing of HDB flat.

Thus according to your current situation, you have 3 options:
1) Wait for another 2 years before apply to purchase a resale HDB flat.
2) Your husband apply to be Singapore Citizen, once obtain SC status, you may purchase BTO or resale HDB according to your needs.
3) Purchase a private as of current status.

Do note that option (1) & (3) are required to pay Additional Buyer Stamp Duty (ABSD) of 5% regardless of property type. And you could only apply housing loan from private banks.
If decided to opt for option (2), you can save up on ABSD.
Nevertheless, whichever option selected, BSD (Buyer Stamp Duty) is still applicable.

Hi Ms,

I regret to inform you that both of you are not eligible to purchase a resale HDB flat at this current moment. For SPR/SPR purchasing a HDB resale flat, both of them must have been SPR for more than 3 years to be eligible.

You could however consider private property if you have the budget. If not, you will have to wait another 2 years before you can qualify to purchase a HDB resale flat.

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

Should you need require further assistance in matters relating to property, please contact me at my mobile 9748 6305  . I will be happy to assess and share with you the possibilities for you in the current market.

Thank you.

Best regards,
