What steps should I follow to sell my HDB flat and buy a private condominium?
Step 1: Conduct financial due diligence to ensure you can afford a new home.
Step 2: Begin planning the selling of your HDB flat.
Note: Although this process may appear reversed, it ensures you are financially ready before beginning the irreversible process of selling your home.
What is the current market trend for private properties in Singapore?
2023-2024: Watershed moment for the private property market due to an oversupply of new condos.
Beyond 2024: Expect prices to rise due to a low supply of private properties from 2025-2027.
How can I finance my upgrade from an HDB to a private property?
Ensure a stable source of income. Plan defensively to cover potential income loss; your upgrading plan should secure your house even if a spouse loses their income.
How can I leverage my private property for wealth generation?
Use the principle of leverage; your profits are based on the total value of the property, not just your initial deposit. Investing in a stable market like Singapore’s property market can be a safer choice than more volatile markets like stocks.
Can I own both an HDB flat and a private property simultaneously?
Yes, but owning an HDB flat and buying a private property incurs a heavy Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty (ABSD). One method to own two properties is to sell an HDB flat and have each spouse own one property.
What should I look for in a private condominium when considering an upgrade from my HDB flat?
Consider the “Quality, Exit Strategy, Pricing” model when choosing a property.
“Quality” refers to the build and design of the property, “Exit Strategy” refers to your plan for selling the property in the future, and “Pricing” refers to the cost of the property and if it fits within your budget.
What lifestyle changes should I anticipate when moving from an HDB flat to a private condominium?
The main change will be access to amenities like a gym, pool, BBQ pits, and basement parking.
What specific features or amenities should I look for in a private condominium in this price range that align with my lifestyle?
This will differ for each family. Some may prefer pool-facing units, while others may prioritize proximity to transport nodes. Neither of these factors guarantees huge profits, so it’s important to balance these qualities with the right entry price.

"Heikal from HeroHomes is an exceptional housing agent. Throughout our journey together, Heikal provided outstanding service and support.
One of the things that stood out to me was the level of professionalism and accuracy in the budget calculations. Heikal utilized Excel to create detailed budget calculations which allowed us to tweak our finances instantly at any time, with his help of course. This was a major advantage as it allowed us to make informed decisions without any delay."

"Very professional company, excellent to work with and prompt with responses. We had quite a complex situation as my mother was overseas for a majority of the time during the buy/sell period, but they Heikal was adaptable to our personal needs and challenges and helped make the buying and selling process far less stressful. He did not push us to compromise on our own goals or wants, only provided advice as asked or needed.

"Buying a house during/post COVID-pandemic period would have been a frustrating experience without the help of Heikal, Norida and DJ. Eventually secured a unit below market rate on a "PRIME LAND" without having to top-up for the dreaded COV. In fact, the thought of COV actually made me stopped looking to buy for about a year. There was no pushy sales from them, and for that I am glad. The team provided detailed calculations and ensured all admin work was prepared in advance. Even when there is a typo to my name (not by them) on the
