Asked by James Tan
Hi,
I'm currently listed as an "authorised occupier" in my parents' flat which is still under the minimum occupation period (they are the joint owners).
Can I check if I'm able to buy an overseas property under my name, given that I'm just listed as an "authorised occupier"? The information on HDB's website is a bit vague when it says "As a flat owner or occupier, you can choose to acquire private residential properties locally or overseas if you can fulfil the eligibility conditions that apply to your flat." I understand for "essential occupiers", it is similar to the joint owner and can only buy overseas property after the minimum occupation period. Does the same restriction apply to "authorised occupier" as well?
Thanks.
James
