My husband has a property in malaysia and we have declared and approved by HDB. We have obtained the HFE. However, we just noticed the HFE approved is only applicable for room 1 to room 4. 5 room flat is not allowed, anyone experience this before, would we be able to appeal?

Good day to you.

Concessional approvals are granted based on submitted applications. Did you specifically request a purchase for a 5-room flat to accommodate your children and parents? Also, do both of your credit profiles meet the MSR and TDSR requirements? It makes sense to appeal for concessional approval if you have valid reasons to support your case.

Navigating a property transaction can feel overwhelming, especially when it intersects with major life events.
With over 15 years of experience as a property consultant, my role goes beyond market knowledge — it is to provide clarity, structure, and peace of mind through complex decisions.

I regularly assist clients with sensitive and non-standard situations, including:
• Divorce & Asset Settlement — guiding parties toward fair, practical outcomes for shared properties
• Intestate & Estate Planning — helping families navigate inherited property and future planning with confidence
• Complex Property Matters — including cases involving Lasting Power of Attorney, bankruptcy, or special circumstances

If you’re seeking clarity rather than pressure, I’m happy to have a conversation to understand your situation and outline possible next steps.
