Asked by
My wife is a SC and I am a SPR. We would like to buy a resale HDB with my wife to be the owner.

I understand there is a 5 year MOP after purchased the resale HDB. Would the MOP also be applicable to me as the Occupant? If we want to buy another condo under my name within the MOP. What should we do?

Hi,

As both of you are considered one family entity, you will be subjected to 5 year MOP even though you are registered as occupant. This is because your name is required to form the family nucleus and hence you are considered an essential occupier, where 5 year MOP still applies.

If you wish to have 2 properties, ideally purchase separately under individual names. May I know will you be open to such an option? Thanks and look forward to discuss and value-add to your housing plans further.

Warm Regards,

Hi Sir,

As the essential occupier, you will also be subjected to the 5 years MOP period during which you are not allowed to purchase a private condo under your name.

Please feel free to contact me so that I can provide you with possible solutions to your situation. Thank you.

Good morning buyer,

Yes you will be restricted to 5 years MOP too even you are the essential occupier.

Care to share with you guys are going for resale HDB rather than other options in the market? Perhaps I can value add more.

Good morning,

Essential occupiers are also required to comply with the MOP requirement. This is due to the fact that the purchase cannot take place without the existence of the essential occupier.

Good evening buyer,

The legal age to own a property is 21 years old.

There might be a way to own property below 21 years old. Will you be keen to find out? But you wont be able to obtain loan.
