Hi,
May I know what are you referring to as 2nd hand BTO? If its hdb that just turned 5 years old and reach their MOP and become eligible to sell, yes you are eligible to purchase with your spouse or children as its considered resale hdb. Yes the landed property needs to be sold within 6 months after the purchase completion date.
May I have more info and requirements about your plans so to make better recommendations? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.
Warm Regards,

-- HDB BTO 4rm Sellers Mr. Farvin & Ms. Sel --
Ivan was the first agent that we met up with and right from the offset we had good vibes as he has a friendly personal approach, detailed working style and focuses on building the long-term relationship.
Our unit comes with its challenges but Ivan remained positive and had no qualms committing to our plans right from the start. It took only 6 weeks of aggressive marketing for him to secure a good offer which was a pleasant surprise in the end.
Ivan was always responsive and we had no worries to pass him the house keys. The whole process was transparent and hassle free, and he was always thinking from our point of view on how to make life easier for the client. He is a committed professional and has fast execution, so we felt assured that things are done well and we can entrust the sale process entirely to him.
--- HDB Flat Upgraders Mr. & Mrs. Lee ---
We decided to engage Ivan as our agent as we were impressed with how he answered the enquiries on property guru website.
He has helped us to find our ideal unit and also sold our current unit. He was very patient and never pushy when we were looking for our ideal unit. He would tell us that it is always important to find a unit that we really liked.
When it comes to selling of our unit, he was always prompt in arranging for viewings and he also tried his best to arrange and consolidate the viewings due to our time constraints. He is a reliable and prompt agent and is always willing to clarify any concerns and questions that we have.
Thanks Ivan! :)

Hi, are you referring to a BTO that just reached 5 years of age? If that is the case, you could purchase it first before selling the landed property. Or sell the landed property and to purchase the HDB at the same time with no waiting period. Pls feel free to let me know if you need any assistance.

Dear sir/madam,
For those who have sold their private homes, they will be required to wait for a period of 30 months before they can purchased a HDB flat directly from HDB, regardless whether BTO or SBF. They are also not allowed to purchase a brand new Executive Condominium.
As for resale units, there is no such restrictions.
We have just concluded a similar transaction for our client where we have sold their landed home near Serangoon Gardens and assisted in their purchase of a HDB resale flat in Bishan.
Perhaps we can sit down with you and look into the timeline required in this transition.

Hi,
BTO is shorthand for Built-to-Order. It's direct first-hand HDB flats from HDB. There is no second hand BTO.
If you're referring to resale HDB flat direct from the open market, then yes, you're eligible to purchase one, even if you have not sold your landed property.
There is no waiting period, but you will be required to sell off all your private properties latest within 6 months upon the purchase of the HDB flat.
Should you need any 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.

Dear Sir/Mdm,
There is no waiting period to buy a resale flat after you sold off your landed property. You may also purchase the resale flat first before selling your landed property although it is not always recommended to do that.
The important issue is to time the sale and purchase so that you are able to transit smoothly and seamlessly from your current property to the new one.
I have assisted many clients to transit successfully from private properties to HDB. Please feel free to contact me so that I can provide you with further assistance!

Testimonial from Satisfied Clients
“I would like to recommend Nick Tan from SRI. Before we engaged Nick, we were working with another agent from a very popular property agency in February 2017. We decided to terminate the contract after 5 weeks of zero viewings and no paper advertisements. Basically he was just waiting for phone calls. We engaged Nick on 20th April and by 10th of May, our unit was sold off. Why Nick? 1. He has good marketing strategies 2. He always kept us posted on what he did (communications!) 3. He made sure we understand the current market situation but he will consistently reassure us that the unit can be sold off 4. He is not greedy and trusting 5. He walks the talk”
Peter & Wendy (Property Seller)
I write to commend Nick Tan (R040814C). When my husband and I first met Nick, we were impressed by his drive, commitment, business acumen and strategical thinking, and decided to engage him. We were not disappointed. Nick sourced for prospective quality buyers in a targeted methodical fashion and was effective in connecting us with serious buyers, notwithstanding the fact that the search primarily took place over Dec – Feb (a traditional lull period). Throughout the transaction, he also gave us helpful advice in various aspects; the advice reflected his personal experience and expertise and was not simply regurgitated from public sources without any value-add. Further, Nick went beyond the call of duty of a competent professional. He had a sense of humanity in the way he interacted with myself and the other parties to the transaction such as my parents. As an example, my newborn daughter was warded into A&E on the completion date of the transaction; the care and concern that Nick showed went beyond the scope of work of an estate agent. I commend Nick for his capabilities and character, and would certainly wish to engage him for future property transactions.
Weilun & Benita (Property Seller)
“We are very grateful to Nick for his extensive marketing efforts. With his comprehensive marketing plan, he helped us to achieve a record selling price within 2 weeks of listing our property for sale! We highly recommend his service to anyone who is keen to sell their properties.”
Mr & Mrs Wong (Property Seller)
“Nick has conducted himself ethically and professionally when handling the sales of our property. Thanks to his patience and perseverance, we managed to secure a sales price beyond our expectations.
We are very happy and satisfied with his services and will definitely recommend him to our friends and family in the future.”
Mr & Mrs Tan (Seller of Inter-Terrace House)
“Nick provides a delightful customer experience from day one when I engage him as my agent to look for a flat of my choice to the completion of the deal. He is competent, resourceful and has a pleasant manner to work with. He is the Agent of my choice in dealing with properties and I would highly recommend him to others who would appreciate an agent that takes care and can give the customer a peaceful mind.”
