[Roy_yl2711]

Flat units for sk/pug drop 100% compared to May '17 exercise.

Saw some units from other nearby area still exist n appear in this exercise when i don't even get a chance to choose with queue number previously.

Really jialat and seriously how they operate nobody will ever know.

Maybe some couples decided to drop the BTO after booking the flat during the first appointment?

Yes and I'm assuming it happens a few times for the same unit for it to appear repeatedly for SBF.

Maybe even a HDB officer also don't know why .

Oversub by alot...

Available 2642
Applicants 7323
Ratio 2.8x

3 person to every 1 house.

 

[MrSinkie95]

First timer ratio very little

 

[charlieandrew]

First timer here

Since they give ballot numbers up to 3x the number of available units, do people with large numbers even get something? I'm not fussy (2nd floor next to rubbish chute I also want), but the category I want application ratio already 4.2...

Is it possible to check the completion/leasing date for SBF before making our choice? Tia!

Hi guys,

In need of help here, not sure if this the right place to ask, but Im unable to start a new thread.

I plan to apply SBF with my fiancee and take advantage of the MCPS and list my mother as an occupier.

My concern is, my mum owes HDB about 20k (flat got repo about 15 years ago), will the outstanding amount affect my application, if I were to include her name?

Called HDB hotline about 6 months ago to enquire about above issue. Was told by a CSO that it wont be a problem.

However, after reading the General Condition for purchase yesterday.

"3.3 Outstanding Debts Owing to HDB

If there are any outstanding debts or monies owing to HDB by any person listed in the Application Form, the applicant must settle such debts and pay an administrative charge as determined by HDB, before he/ she can buy or take possession of the new flat."

3.3 is the complete opposite of what the CSO told me.

With referece to 3.3, am I right to say that, if i will be liable for my parent's debt if I were to include her name.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated

 

[yourong]

is it possible to apply for both bto and sbf at the same time? and the system will still allow?

Your mum is not an applicant and only an occupier, no issue. Only if she is to be an applicant (as stated in the clause you pulled out) and have an ownership to the flat that you need to repay the $20k plus interests. This clause is to prevent abuse of the subsidy for those who already bought one subsidized flat.

is it possible to apply for both bto and sbf at the same time? and the system will still allow?

I think is either or leh.

 

[TripVin]

can anyone advice please:

me and my going rom in feb. so when i apply for this sobf, i should apply as married rite? and i am the main applicant so my gf must be occupier or co applicant ? co applicant means she will help with the loan or occupier also can help with the loan . basically whats the difference between the 2 and which is the norm when 1st timer couples apply.

Thanks!~

the norm is applying as co applicants to form a family nucleus.

occupiers cannot help with the loan and loan amt also dun take into acct the occupier.

 

[YY2008]

Thanks Leebe and Perisher!
