What I don't understand is why 2nd timers bother to apply for sbf if it's not under MCPS.

I dug out the data of the previous sbf and is so surprise to find there are plenty of 2nd timers going for sbf.

Coz there alot of picky first timers who will waste their chance if their one and only choice is taken.

For my case, the couple infront me got single digit ballot number but nv come for selection.

If i successfully get it when the result release for SK SOBF, does it mean that I can get the keys immediately since it states "key available"? Which means that I need to get ready all the money for the downpayment, options, etc etc?

NO, you need to wait for your handover of keys in the 2nd appointment which is roughly 3months after your 1st appointment if the keys is ready.

Seems like majority of the balance 2 room flats are short lease type for elderly. Potential applicants should go for 2 rooms under BTO.

Hi duckie, so you mean even if it's a 2% chance for 2nd timer in a sbf, you still managed to get a unit of your choice?

It really depends on your ballot number. If the dropout rate is high, ppl with big numbers still get a chance.

need to check... saw. some dates like lease commencement date for 2017. but under delivery possession date it says NA (keys available).

It should mean that by time we clear 2 appointment, we should be able to get keys a couple of months after the 2nd appointment right?

if the keys is available and nothing goes wrong you should be able to collect your keys in the 2nd appointment
