Hi Mr. Feodor Mak,

1) The HDB ruling is such that 1 family is only entitled to 1 HDB flat.
2) Thus regardless of whether your parents bought the flat before or after marriage, as long as they are still in a married relationship. They are considered as 1 family.
3) One of your parent who might not be an owner of the flat, she/he will still consider as an essential occupier of the flat.
4) Although there are exceptions such as the 3Gen family but this type of case is quite rare, the HDB will deal with them case-by-case basis.
5) As long as your parents are in a marriage relationship, they will not be able to form a separate family nucleus with you.

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.

Best regards

Hi Mr Mak,

As HDB recognises a married couple as a single entity, whether the HDB is purchased under the husband or wife individual name, the other party will be an essential occupier of the purchased HDB, and in such scenario, the private property will need to be disposed within 6 months from purchasing the HDB flat. In addition, if your intention is to purchase a brand new HDB, there will be a wait out period of 30 months after disposing the private property before you are eligible to apply for a brand new HDB regardless through the BTO channel or SBF channel.

Hope the above helps!

Hi Feodor,

I regret to inform you that your parents will have to form the valid family nucleus if either of them were to purchase a HDB flat. This means that the other party will have to dispose off the private property latest within 6 months upon the HDB flat purchase.

Having said that, there may be a method where your family can still own 2 properties, a HDB and a condo. I will need to understand more from you to see if this plan is feasible.

I am experienced and well-versed in both HDB and private transactions. I will be able to assist you in your property plans. Please get in touch with me for a more in-depth discussion.

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
