In the event a divorced HDB owner dies., would the property be left to his mother (authorized occupier) or to his adult children (who do not live with him nor own any property)? Anyone knows?

the property will be left to his children.

Normally when a person dies, and if he/she has a family (children/spouse), his/her parent will not get a single cents unless he/she make a will

Hilton suicide, husband jumps, all goes to wife, wife also jump, goes to wife parents.

Husband parents loss son and got nothing. Who lives last is the winner.

Depends on holding mode of the Flat, Joint-Tenancy or Tenancy-in-Common?

Under Joint-Tenancy, the deceased joint-tenant’s share will be passed on to the surviving joint tenant

Under Tenancy-in-Common, the remaining family or single occupier is allowed to retain the existing flat after the owner has passed away, provided they are eligible to own a Flat

If theres a Will, will be distributed according to the Will

If no Will, will be distributed according to Intestate Succession Act
