Hi. Is it possible to buy a 999leasehold or freehold private condo or apartment already TOP or TOP by 2014 at $500k? I am Singaporean below 35 but married to a foreigner. However I plan to buy on my own name since I am the one paying for it and also to avoid additional stamp duty. It is for own stay but I plan to rent out when we relocate in few years. So prefer near MRT and good easy rental area. I don't want geylang area. Also is shoebox apartment/condo be easy to sell off in future? As I can't afford higher price. Also we doubt we can buy HDB as they have stringent rules since we will relocate overseas in near future. Can u advice me how much upfront payment too. Thank you

1) Do not think there is any 999 or FH condo at 500K available. 2) If you are married to a FR, you may not need to pay ABSD. 3) If you sell any property with the 1st 4 yrs, you are subjected to Seller Stamp Duty. Do give me a call or email if you have any further queries.

Dear home seeker, If u are married, Singapore citizen and this is your first matrimonial home with your foreigner spouse, no absd is payable. However sorry to disappoint you that there is no S$500K condo freehold/999, near mrt, good rental area, near good school, non-geylang and TOP in 2014. Let me know if you wish to explore further. A HDB may be a wiser choice. Best regards, Joanne Chia, Huttons Real Estate Group, Tel 8333-3327  , chia_joanne@yahoo.com.sg Read More
