Dear Sir/Mdm,
You will be given 6 months to find a buyer for your EC after purchasing resale HDB flat. With a holistic and comprehensive marketing plan, there will be more than sufficient time to secure a buyer for your unit.
Most of my clients who engaged me managed to secure a buyer at their target price within a 3 to 6 months period. Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your concerns better so that I can assist you further.
Regards,
Nick Tan

Testimonial from Satisfied Clients
“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)
I write to commend Nick Tan (R040814C). When my husband and I first met Nick, we were impressed by his drive, commitment, business acumen and strategical thinking, and decided to engage him. We were not disappointed. Nick sourced for prospective quality buyers in a targeted methodical fashion and was effective in connecting us with serious buyers, notwithstanding the fact that the search primarily took place over Dec – Feb (a traditional lull period). Throughout the transaction, he also gave us helpful advice in various aspects; the advice reflected his personal experience and expertise and was not simply regurgitated from public sources without any value-add. Further, Nick went beyond the call of duty of a competent professional. He had a sense of humanity in the way he interacted with myself and the other parties to the transaction such as my parents. As an example, my newborn daughter was warded into A&E on the completion date of the transaction; the care and concern that Nick showed went beyond the scope of work of an estate agent. I commend Nick for his capabilities and character, and would certainly wish to engage him for future property transactions.
Weilun & Benita (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.”

-- EC Sellers, Private Property Buyers Dr. Chan & Ms. Xie --
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.

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. Read More

Hi there,
Thank you for your query.
You will be given 6 months to sell off your private property, once you have obtained the keys to your unit. I have handled the sales of myriad of units both private and HDB - having also transacted an EM unit in Bishan at a record price which was published in the National Newspaper (article on website).

More details on your end will enable me to churn out a more comprehensive, exact and thorough financial calculations with exact figures. Furthermore, I would be able to share more on the varied marketing strategies and mediums through which your property might get maximum exposure as well as study the recent up to date transaction caveats of similar sized units in vicinity and hence, present a sales and elevation report to advise further. There are many marketing techniques -online (number of Portals) , physical means ( professional photography /videography) and highly crossed networking with other agents to refer their clients. It is an intricate yet streamlined process.
Employing a seasoned agent will get you in return- sincere 100% commitment, succinct coordination of viewings, extreme grip and control on price and avoidance of price wars and ill practices. Do Visit my website for my recent accolades and testimonials@ www.kumarrai.com.

Dear sir/mdm,
I am sure you must have heard about condo units or even landed units being sold at record speed as well as pricing, therefore to put it into perspective, selling your EC within the stipulated timeline (6month upon taking possession of your resale HDB) should be unlikely an issue. The key towards meeting the timeline involves positioning your EC for sale correctly and this can only be done if we have done sufficient research and understand how the past and recent transactions to derive a sound marketing strategy.
I will conduct a review of marketing process on a 3 weeks basis, in order for the marketing efforts to sink in and take effect instead of adjusting on a weekly basis where we will be unable to track the effectiveness of the different marketing channels. Any adjustments required will be made from the review done and updates and discussion will also be done together with my clients.
I hope the above sharing is sufficient to assure you that as long as you have done the necessary preparations and alignment to the market trend, you should be in good hands. Of course, with current pandemic, it does get a little tricky in securing a buyer, but I am still confident in securing a right buyer who is purchasing for own stay within 2 months period if we have strategised correctly and executed the marketing plan effectively.
I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 10years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.
I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.
Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.
With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

Good afternoon!
There is a 6 months timeframe for you to sell your EC, upon collection of keys to your resale HDB. With the right marketing strategies and exposure, it will definitely be able to sell within the 6 months.
I assisted my client recently to sell off their EC within less than 1 month and at a record high price too.
Should you need assistance or have further queries, you may contact me. Have a nice day!

If really can't sell it in 6 months, can write in to ask for extension. And properly need lower down a bit price. Normally 5 year resale EC is quite popular, don't worry.
Also can choose to sell and buy together, just to match the time.
