Asked by
Hi, my husband has bought a condo that is still under construction whereas I am in the midst of selling off my condo. We have only 1 kid under 21 years old. I know I can buy a resale HDB under my name and add my child's name as occupier.
1st question: Would that affect my child in any way when he grows up and wants to buy a BTO?
2nd question: Supposedly I really buy a resale HDB and add my child's name as occupier and that my husband wants to sell off his condo after a few years. Would it be possible for him to buy a resale HDB also?

Hi,

I hope you have consulted a real estate agent or a conveyance lawyer or an HDB resale hotline before you have started your current property restructure process.

1) One thing I would like to highlight is if you are still under marriage condition, your spouse must be either be the co-owner or at least the essential occupier.
2) Under resale HDB, both of you including any occupier must dispose of any private property within 6 months upon key collection of your HDB purchase.
3) Please see (1) on whether your husband can buy another resale HDB.

Your first question concern is no longer valid.

Hope the above answer to your main concerns, but if there are more query, please feel free to contact me at 90110636  , or email: ling.ck7@gmail.com if more information is needed.
I'll be glad to assist.

Hi Mdm,

I'm not sure who had advised you on the above, but I would like to highlight to you that your understanding of the property rules and regulations is not entirely correct.

Firstly, you mentioned that your husband had bought a BUC condo, and that you can purchase a HDB flat with your child as an occupier. I wish to correct you that, should you purchase a HDB resale flat, you can of course include your child as an occupier. But you will also need to include your husband either as a co-owner or an essential occupier. This means that he will have to sell off the BUC condo that he had purchased, latest within 6 months upon your HDB flat purchase.

Next, upon the HDB flat purchase and the BUC condo sale, both you and your husband will need to serve a 5-year MOP before either of you can purchase another residential property, both locally and overseas. You are however free to purchase a non-residential property within the 5-year MOP.

In future, if either or both of you were to purchase another HDB flat after serving the 5-year MOP of the HDB flat you're planning to purchase now, you will need to sell off the existing HDB flat that you own, latest within 6 months upon the purchase of the next HDB flat.

In terms of your child's chances of applying for a BTO in future, it will not affect him in any way, as long as he/she does not purchase a private condo in his name before he applies for the BTO flat. Even if he had purchased a private condo in his name before then, he can also sell off the condo, and then wait-out a 30-month period before applying for the BTO, provided he meet all other eligibility conditions.

I am experienced and well-versed in both HDB and private transactions. I will be able to assist you in your property plans.

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,
Robbie Chen
