Hi Richard,

As long as he have the Interim Judgement, he is able to sell the house.
1) If the house is under both his name and his ex-spouse's name, he do need her consent.
2) Either one has the rights if both are the owners, they have to discuss on this and come to a mutual agreement on this.
3) The distribution of gains from the sale of the house should be discussed and penned in down via lawyer, in case of disagreement.

Hope it help your friend.

Feel free to contact me if need any help.

Cheers,

Morning Richard,

Firstly, to purchase a HDB unit, as married couple, there will be at least an owner and essential occupier. Hence both must sign the documents, when it comes to the sales.
Secondly, any of the owner/s can appoint a salesperson that they preferred. But it would be better to iron things out to prevent further conflict, especially if both parties are in very bad terms. As for the payment of commission, it's dependent on the owner/s to work out their owner distribution.
Thirdly, as for the split, if there's no competition, the cash proceed will be distributed according to the type of tenancy. If there's a competition, then it would be ideal to wait for the absolute. This would prevent wanted delay and further conflict.

Do feel free to contact me if you require further assistance.
