naori 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2011 So, I inherited a property in late 2009 with my siblings in North America from my deceased mom. We sold it late last year due to a bad market, slow to sell. So now I moved here to live with my fiance. He is citizen here. So will that effect our chances of getting a cpf grant? I am foreigner. If we get married Ill be a PR. but the house wasn't sold more than 30 month requirement? What would happen? would that also affect the chance of us getting a BTO?

naori 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2011 Step by step. Get PR first , then talk about BTO. I know but I am asking about the disposed house problem. Even if I get PR which technically wouldn't take more than 2 years. And even then BTO will still take 4 years. So they are all intertwined. But does that mean when we get the keys to the house equal the 30 months. or does it mean when we ballot for a bto already has to be 30 month? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
therat 18 Report post Posted February 28, 2011 The time you submit for BTO application has to be 30 month. Right at the beginning. Eligibilty to buy New HDB Ownership/Interest in Property in Singapore or Overseas other than HDB flats You, your spouse, any occupiers listed in the Application Form or their spouses must not own or dispose or have an estate or interest in any other flat, house, building or land* o Within 30 months before the date of application, and o Between the application date and the date of taking possession of the flat * includes but not limited to: * HUDC flats (Privatised and Non-Privatised) * Properties acquired by gift * Properties inherited as beneficiaries under a will or as a result of the Intestate Succession Act * Private properties * Properties owned/acquired/disposed through nominees regardless of properties location Base on what I read and understand, as long as you can proof that the property is inherited. You are not bond by the 30 mths. BUT, please double check with HDB. Rule change time by time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
