Hi,

Once your current condo is sold (OTP exercised by buyer), you will be considered not to own any property and your next property purchase will be considered your 1st property purchase.

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,

Hi, the moment the buyer exercises the OTP from you, you could immediately purchase the next property and it’s considered as your 1st property still. Pls feel free to let me know if you need any assistance.

Hi,

It depends at the point of the purchase, how many properties do you own. If you had sold your condo, but still owns a HDB flat, then your next condo purchase will still be considered your second property purchase. If you do not have other residential properties after you had sold your current condo, your next purchase would be considered your first property.

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.

Best regards,
Robbie Chen

Good evening Sir/ Mdm,

legally as long as you have granted option to purchase to your buyer, you will be considered as no property but I will usually advise my clients to commit (place option fee) to a purchase until buyers for sale have exercised the otp.

By doing so, the purchase will be considered your only property and you will not be hit by ABSD as a Singaporean.

If you choose to buy first then purchase, you will be hit by the cooling measures.

Hope my sharing aids in clearing your doubts.

Perhaps we can meet up to discuss and explore your options on how to have a smooth transition without being hit by cooling measures or having to shift houses twice.

How about meeting over the weekends or next week?

Dear Sir/Mdm,

You will have to time the sale of your condo first before buying another the new one so as to avoid the need to pay the Additional Buyer Stamp Duty (ABSD). Once the buyer of your existing condo has exercised the option to purchase, you would have been considered to have disposed off this current condo and is not liable for ABSD. You will then also be eligible for the max 75% loan.

I have experience assisting my clients to time the sale and purchase of their properties to avoid the need to pay ABSD. Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your situation better and propose a tailored solution to you!

Regards,
Nick Tan

I was featured recently on Council for Estate Agencies (CEA) Newsletter:

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.”

Hi,

Due to the current ABSD present, it became crucial when you buy & sell in order not to incurr unnecessary cost in your purchase.

1) If your next purchase is a matrimonial property, you could apply for remission of ABSD.
2) If your next purchase is not a matrimonial property, you have to sell your current property in order not to incur the ABSD.
3) If you make your purchase before selling off current property, you will incurr ABSD, even though you sell your current property later.
Do note there are no refund of ABSD unless your new purchase is a matrimonial home.
4) You have to present at least a signed OTP on current property before you sign S&P for the next purchase to avoid incurring ABSD. If your buyer eventually did not exercise the OTP, IRAS might return to chase after ABSD since you own 2 property now.
Do note that there are no grace period given to allow you to sell your 1st property after 2nd purchase.
5) Finally to answer your question, if "Sold", and buy a new one, it is considered as 1st property. No implication on count of 1st or 2nd purchase. It is the count of property at the point of your purchase that counts.

Hope the above answer to your main concerns, but if there are more queries, please feel free to contact me at 90110636  , or email: ling.ck7@gmail.com if more information is needed.
I'll be glad to assist.
