Legal Fees: You'll need to engage a conveyancing lawyer to handle the legal aspects of the transaction.
Legal fees vary depending on the complexity of the sale and the lawyer's experience but typically range from S$2,500 to S$4,500 or more.
Mortgage Discharge Fee: If you have an outstanding mortgage on the property, you'll need to pay a discharge fee to your bank, usually a fixed amount (e.g., S$500) or a percentage of the outstanding loan.
Valuation Fee: If the buyer is taking a loan, they might require a valuation report of the property. The seller typically pays this fee, which can range from a few hundred to a thousand dollars.
Property Tax: Ensure your property tax is paid up to date, as you might need to reimburse the buyer for any tax paid in advance.
Miscellaneous Costs: This could include advertising costs, repair or touch-up costs to make your property more appealing to buyers, and any penalties for early termination of existing contracts (e.g., maintenance, internet).
Moving Costs: Don't forget to factor in the cost of packing, transporting, and storing your belongings if you're moving out.
It's crucial to account for all these costs when calculating your net proceeds from the sale. You can consult with your real estate agent or lawyer for a more accurate estimate of the fees specific to your situation.
Here's a summary table for quick reference:
Fee/Cost Approximate Range
Seller's Stamp Duty (SSD) Varies depending on holding period
Legal Fees S$2,500 - S$4,500+
Mortgage Discharge Fee S$300 - S$500 or percentage of loan
