Hi Faith
Yes valuation report will need to be done. Stamp duty is also liable and hdb fees. Is your current house fully paid up?

Hi Faith,

Yes hdb admin fees are liable. To be exact on what is payable, more details are needed. May I know is your hdb fully paid? Has the 5 year MOP been met? The cpf utilized + accrued interest of outgoing owner needs to be returned him/her. It is better if we discuss further on how best to approach this based on your current portfolio and objectives. Thanks and hope to discuss further And value add.

Warm regards

Hi Faith,

For the current HDB, are you servicing it using bank loan or HDB loan? If you are servicing it using a bank loan, HDB will not allow you to decouple.

Legal fees and stamp duties are payable. You will also need to do a valuation.

Please feel free to call me to discuss more!

Hi Faith,

Re: Our Preferred Experienced SG Realtor

Decoupling will be handle by the law firm appointed.

Decoupling made sense only when fulfill the following:
1) Existing flat fully and cash rich for the partner who opt out for the existing HDB ownership.
2) Only 1 partner are eligible for loan, other partner unemployed and will be the owner of the HDB.

Recommendation if both are eligible for loan. Sell the HDB and buy a condo individual. Two condo

1) Trust and interest of conflicts will not occur- Get the rightful proceed from the sale of the HDB.
2) Direct n save legal costs.
3) Make more sense to utilize the bank loan for both condo purchase.
4) Flexible use of CPF to serve housing purchase. No freeze of both CPF in existing HDB.
