Has anyone return your HDB flat to HDB before the 5 yrs restrictions other than divorce cases?

Return HDB is not you want to return.

HDB will take back.

My friend return HDB before MOP and it is a divorce case.

She got penalty of 5 or 10 yrs cannot buy unit from HDB.

Look on the bright side. At least dun need to be tied down by any tupit rules.. just buy n sell private lor..

I just bought a resale HDB.

Any idea if this 5 years restriction applies to commercial props? ie. Can I buy commercial properties within these 5 years?

No restriction.

You can buy commercial properties.

Just that you will lost all the benefit during budget time.

AND you will be paying Normal S&CC instead of Reduced S&CC
