If your flat is a brand new unit, may need to have some time allowance for HDB defects rectification work ? I remember my mum's place had some leaking walls after the flat was completed by HDB, and they needed to rectify first before renovation starts ....

Hi Blueocean

what to look out for? and how long does it take for all these rectification?

Hi Insane

I am in the same situation too. Started receeing for id and appliances etc more than half yr bfore keys are ready. Same thoughts as you, wanted to get things done step by step so no rush when keys are avail. One word of caution before you make any purchase - think, think and think. So far, I made 2 purchases, regretted both, but deposit already paid, so either forego or swallow lor.

Don't be tempted when salespeople says things like book now, lock the price, promo price only now, or later no stocks etc.

Good luck!

so far haven buy anything. Only shortlisted the products I wan to get and also wher to get the best deal.
