Asked by
I own a 5 room HDB unit in a mature estate with MRT and town centre within 1min walking distance. Do you think i should keep this unit and rent out and buy a condo? But i have outstanding hdb loan and i do not have enough cash for downpayment for a condo.

What is a better option for me?
1) Sell and downgrade to a smaller HDB to cash out and the new HDB is fully paid and wait for 5 yrs to buy a condo thus having both the hdb and condo OR

2)sell away the hdb now and immediately upgrade to a condo but only owning 1 house for self stay and not able to generate passive income.

If i choose option (1), what the possibilities, such as now rules, that I may not afford the condo after 5 yrs in a smaller hdb flat worse off than what i staying now?

Morning,

We cannot anticipate the market status for tomorrow hence it's ideal to deal with what you have in hand. If you are looking for passive income but having financial issues, we might have to do it on a step by step basis. Selling your unit and getting a resale unit might be an option as you do not need to wait longer for the BTO units to be completed.

Do contact me for further discussion.
