Hi,
You can do both the sale & purchase concurrently and utilize the enhanced contra facility if there is no bank loan involved. This will allow the sale proceeds to seamlessly move to fund the purchase, and both completions can possibly be on the same date. We can also seek extension from the buyer of your 3-room so that you have sufficient time to renovate the 5-room and only need to move once.
Alternatively, if your existing cash+CPF OA is sufficient to cover the purchase price and stamp duties of the 5-room, you can also do the purchase completion first and take over the flat first to do the renovation. You will have to sell the existing 3-room within 6 months after resale completion of the 5-room unit.
I have worked with various clients and helped them to smoothly transit to their next place. Happy to share more on the best approach for your plans too. 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,
Ivan Ng Realtor

I would like to compliment Mr Ivan Ng for his professional work and effort.I sent my first post in Jan 2019 and Ivan replied promptly, so I have decided to contact Ivan for follow up. My EC was not ready for sale due to MOP (another 3 months from Jan) at that time and Ivan was able to give me advices on how to proceed from there. Initially we have decided to try to write to HDB for early sale but since it was only 3 months left, eventually we waited for another 3 months while we looked for our next property. Ivan was able to arrange for new property showroom appointment at a timely manner while helping us to list for our EC for sale. We were a bit worried when our EC sale time was longer than expected due to trade war, but Ivan was able to reassure us that our EC would sell. By November, he managed to secure a buyer for our EC. Thank you.

I would like to express my appreciation to Ivan Ng for his excellent work. Ivan is a dedicated, client-focused, patient and sincere agent. Throughout the whole process of selling and looking for our next property, he has always acted very professionally that makes my wife and I feel at ease and assured. Ivan is not a pushy and hard sales agent. Ivan listens and understands our needs and carefully guided us through. We are fortunate to have Ivan as our agent. Thank you Ivan.
