Hi,
1) Usually it is common for the lawyer to ask you to prepare cash for stamp duty payment in case the CPF board cannot release funds on time.
2) If the CPF board can react on time, both BSD and ABSD need not come out cash.
3) But it is almost impossible in a private resale transaction because there are only 14 days (including weekends) to pay stamp duty.
4) And CPF board needs 14 working days to process the funds releasing request.
5) If you have sufficient funds in your CPF account and your intention is to fully utilize this.
6) You will have to highlight to the lawyer and see what they can do in order to make this possible.
7) Note the penalty of Delay in Payment Not Exceeding 3 Months is as follow:
A penalty of $10 or an amount equal to the duty payable, whichever is greater, will be imposed for late payments not exceeding 3 months.
