Hi,
If you are one of the owners, then, your husband cannot buy a HDB flat. Married couple cannot own private apartments at the point of HDB flat purchase. This applies to owner and main occupier who form a married couple.
Cheers!

Hi Ms,

Sorry it is not possible as your husband will need include you as an essential occupier in the purchase and therefore you will not be eligible as a private property owner or ex property property owner. However your husband can purchase a private property with no restrictions.

Feel free to contact me if you need further clarifications.

No, he cannot purchase HDB since your name is in the condo. You will need to have your name removed from the condo and wait out a period of 15 months before you are eligible to consider purchasing a resale HDB with your husband, assuming that both of you are under 55 years old. Read More

Hi,

Sorry it is not possible for your husband to buy hdb on the sole name as your name needs to be included as an essential occupier. This means you have to remove your name from the condo as well.

If you wish to keep the ownership of the condo, and wish to get a 2nd property, you may consider to purchase private property in his sole name instead.

Hope the above clarifies. May I have more info and requirements about your plans so as to make better recommendations? Thanks and look forward to value-add to your housing plans.

Mr & Mrs Wee : We would like to share our appreciation and commendation to Ivan for their professionalism and dedication in handling our property transaction. It was a great pleasure to work with him as he was patient throughout the entire process and explained to us and clarified any doubts we had without fail. He was also very prompt in responding to all the queries we had. While we were unsure if we were able to sell off the property in time, Ivan constantly reassured us that it was possible and offered his professional advice. In fact, he managed to secure an offer to sell the property above our expected price while concurrently negotiated the buying price for our next property. Having Ivan as our agent significantly made the entire process seamless and fuss-free. We will definitely recommend Ivan to our family and friends. Read More

Hi,

Unfortunately, the answer is NO. Your husband can't buy a HDB flat with his name only as he is married to you. A married couple formed as one.

Option:
1) Remove your name from the condo and wait-out for 15 months in order to buy a Resale HDB flat. For BTO flat, you will have to serve a wait-out period of 30 months

2) Your husband is eligible to buy a private condo solely under his name, financially permitting. This option allows you to keep your name in the current condo and have a 2nd property.

For further clarification or queries, please kindly contact me.
Call or text for a non-obligatory consultation discussion to know more.

Hi,

1) Regardless of who is paying for the private condo, you are the legal owner of the property.
2) When coming to buying an HDB flat; BTO and resale. A married couple's names must be in the application together.
3) Therefore both have to comply with the HDB policy, and both cannot own private residential property.
4) Now since you own a private condo,
(a) Resale HDB flat: you can only buy with your husband 15 months later, upon selling the current private condo.
(b) BTO: Submit the application 30 months later, upon selling the current private condo.

Please give me a thumbs-up if the answer provided is relevant to your main concern. Thanks!!!
