Hi Lawrence,
As long as both of you have held SPR status for 3 years each, you are eligible for resale HDB. Do note a 5% ABSD will apply for the purchase. It will be ideal to sell off first before purchase as it will help to avoid a higher ABSD outlay and also allow the sales proceeds to materialize for the transition.
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.

-- HDB BTO 4rm Sellers Mr. Farvin & Ms. Sel --
Ivan was the first agent that we met up with and right from the offset we had good vibes as he has a friendly personal approach, detailed working style and focuses on building the long-term relationship.
Our unit comes with its challenges but Ivan remained positive and had no qualms committing to our plans right from the start. It took only 6 weeks of aggressive marketing for him to secure a good offer which was a pleasant surprise in the end.
Ivan was always responsive and we had no worries to pass him the house keys. The whole process was transparent and hassle free, and he was always thinking from our point of view on how to make life easier for the client. He is a committed professional and has fast execution, so we felt assured that things are done well and we can entrust the sale process entirely to him.
--- HDB Flat Upgraders Mr. & Mrs. Lee ---
We decided to engage Ivan as our agent as we were impressed with how he answered the enquiries on property guru website.
He has helped us to find our ideal unit and also sold our current unit. He was very patient and never pushy when we were looking for our ideal unit. He would tell us that it is always important to find a unit that we really liked.
When it comes to selling of our unit, he was always prompt in arranging for viewings and he also tried his best to arrange and consolidate the viewings due to our time constraints. He is a reliable and prompt agent and is always willing to clarify any concerns and questions that we have.
Thanks Ivan! :)

Hi Lawrence,
You and your wife will be able to purchase a resale HDB if both of you have been PR for 3 years. There will be a 5% Additional Buyer Stamp Duty that is payable when you purchase a resale HDB.
For the transition, it is important to plan the finances and timeline carefully so that you are able to transit smoothly from your current place to the HDB without the need to rent an interim place to stay.
I have assisted many clients in a similar situation as yourself. Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your situation better and provide you with further assistance!

Testimonial from Satisfied Clients (2016/2017)
“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)
“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.”
Susana (Buyer)
“Nick is very pro-active in helping us to resolve whatever questions and problems that we encountered. All the issues are settled even before us having to request or ask for a second time. He was very frank and transparent with all the details, limitations and advantages that we wouldn’t have known. I think this is the most important virtue to be successful in this line. I will surely recommend him to anyone who needs his service because I trust that they will be equally satisfied!!”

Hi Lawrence,
To answer directly to your question, 'Yes', you are eligible to buy resale HDB if both you and your wife residence status (PR) has met the minimum of 3 years. This is the basic requirement of purchasing resale HDB flat.
But the timing of the buying process has to be careful to avoid unnecessary monetary losses.
Do note that as SPR-SPR couple is not eligible for remission or refund of ABSD.
If you bought a resale HDB flat first before disposure of existing condo, you will incur ABSD. And this is not eligible for remission or refund.
Thus you have to dispose off your condo before making your resale HDB flat.
You have to time your sales and purchase carefully to avoid this additional cost.
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.
