Hi Prateek,

Are you and your spouse both SPR? Both of you will need to fulfill 3 years of SPR before you are eligible to purchase a resale HDB. Hope this helps!

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 14 years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

We are offering our clients a complimentary first consultation without obligations (Absolutely FREE!). Schedule for your FREE session today!

Eligibility Requirements for Public Housing (Singapore):
SPR Status: You must hold Singapore Permanent Resident (SPR) status for at least 3 years before applying for a BTO flat.
Spouse Requirement: Public housing (BTO flats) applications require purchase with your spouse.
First off, if you’re wondering whether a single SPR can buy an HDB flat – the answer is, unfortunately, no, even if it’s a resale flat. Under the HDB rules, an SPR can only buy a resale HDB flat with another SPR or SC under two schemes: the HDB Public Scheme, which is buying with a family unit (i.e. spouse, children, siblings, parents), or the Fiancé/Fiancée Scheme, which is well, your fiancé or fiancée.

In other words, a single SPR can’t buy an HDB resale flat alone.

Apart from that, there are other HDB resale flat eligibility conditions that SPRs must fulfil:

You’ll need to be at least 21 years old

You must be an SPR for at least three years

If you’re unmarried and buying with a family member, at least one of them has to be an SC or SPR

If you’re buying as an SPR household, all SPR occupiers (family or co-owners) must have had SPR status for at least three years

You can’t sell or lease your flat out during the Minimum Occupation Period (MOP)

You’ll also need to meet the Ethnic Integration Policy (EIP) or SPR quota for your block/neighbourhood when submitting the resale flat application

Hi,

You can purchase with your spouse, provided both of you have held PR status for at least three years. A single PR cannot buy an HDB in Singapore.

This platform does not allow me to contact you directly so kindly contact me at https://wa.me/6597261112 I would be glad to assist you further.

Thank you and best regards,

Testimonial from Satisfied Clients
-- My husband and I wish to commend the sincere attitude and good customer service rendered by your staff Jenny, who handled the sale of our 5R HDB flat early this year. We have met several agents but none as genuine as Jenny. Being a seller agent, she took our interest at heart in handling the sale, unlike other agents who are self-interest. Jenny is punctual and prompt in the whole dealings and we were convinced that such an agent is hard for find nowadays. Jenny is a trustworthy, honest, sincere and hardworking agent. We are happy with her service and would gladly recommend her to our friends in future. Jenny is an asset to Propnex and the organisation should value her. Thank you Jenny for her efforts--
Mr and Mrs Soo (HDB seller)

--Jenny is very committed and responsive to her clients and she has spent hours updating them and looking out for great deals and even tailor-made property proposal geared towards their needs. Will certainly refer her to others and will definitely approach her again in her future--
Nick and Kim (New launch buyer)

--Jenny did a great job helping my wife and I sell our unit. She took active steps to walk our neighbourhood to understand what she was marketing. During the marketing period, she managed potential buyers and provided timely updates and recommendations so we could stay on top of the process. Overall, Jenny was professional and helped us to achieve a positive result which we are very thankful for--
Aaron ( HDB seller)

--Jenny was very passionate and went the extra miles to help. Thanks to her professional advice and recommendations, I had finally found my dream home--
Yvonne (New launch buyer)

--Appreciate Jenny's clear and prompt communication style with us and other stakeholders. She was also patient and client-centered throughout the process of finding a home that met our criteria. As a first-time home buyer, we appreciate how she went out of her way to explain the process and answer questions we had--

Hi Prateek,

1) The first thing is to ensure you and your family meet the eligibility to buy an HDB flat when you complete the 3 years.
2) If applicants are all SPR, ensure that the owners of the flat hold a minimum of 3-year resident status.
3) Family inclusive of parent(s) and child(ren), so it is not limited to only spouse.
4) You shall be able to apply for an HFE once the 3-year mark is met.
5) As an all-SPR family, you will only be able to get a housing mortgage from a bank.
6) You can find a real estate salesperson to assist in getting your estimated budget.
7) You may also find a banker in the estimation of the mortgage loan based on current income. You have to add in funds in CPF and cash savings to get an estimated budget.
8) You have to find an estate(s) that fits your budget as the target location.
9) Keep regular monitoring of that estate(s) flat's pricing to be ready when you are eligible to buy.

Please give me a thumbs-up if the answer provided is relevant to your main concern. Thanks!!!

Hope the above answers your main concerns, but if there are more queries, 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.
