In shortlisting flats for viewing, please consider:
- Your budget
- If the flat would meet your needs, e.g. proximity to parents’ or children’s home, place of work, schools, etc.
- Any restrictions on your ethnic group to buy a flat in the block, or your nationality if you are a SPR whose nationality is not Malaysia. Check the Ethnic Integration Policy (EIP) and Singapore Permanent Resident (SPR) quota
- Balance flat lease*
* Note: A flat lease of less than 60 years may affect the use of CPF savings and taking of an HDB housing loan. Please read More Information on Your HDB Loan.
You may arrange for a viewing at different times of the day and week to better gauge if the flat is suitable for you. During a viewing, do consider the following:
- Conditions of the flat, e.g. renovation and upkeep
- Spalling concrete, cracks or leakages on ceiling or wall
- Flat orientation, e.g. north, south, east, or west
- Tenants in the flat
- Signs of unlicensed moneylending activities
- If the flat is on a lift-landing floor
- Any upgrading programmes announced for the flat, and if the upgrading cost has been settled
- Issues which you may be concerned with, e.g. past incidents which may have happened in the flat, relationship with the neighbours, etc.
