Hi,

1) The HDB has published the resale levy for different flat types buying at different periods:
https://www.hdb.gov.sg/residential/buying-a-flat/conditions-after-buying

2) It is considered you have received subsidies from the government when you bought a BTO/SBF.
3) Thus when you are buying a 2nd BTO/SBF, you are to pay a resale levy accordingly.
4) If you sold your flat on or after 3 March 2006, the resale levy is a flat rate.
5) You are to pay this resale levy in cash at the point of key collection for your 2nd BTO.
6) Do note that a right-size policy is applicable for the 2nd HDB loan, meaning 50% of the cash proceeds will be used to pay for the 2nd BTO.
7) So, make sure you don't overspend your cash from the sale if there is a gap between buying and selling.
8) The interest is applicable only if you had sold your flat a few years before buying the BTO.
