Yesterday i asked an agent about the total outfront if i buy 3rd property.
Based on $820k property, the outfront cash + cpf is more than $500k.
Based on this property rental yield is estimated @ 4%.
Personally, i dont think i want to tie down so much cash on 3rd property. :2cents:

They should allow us to buy properties according to the number of children we have without ABSD and SSD.

Just to ask if anybody has experience or heard about special provisions given to avoid SSD/ABSD? I called up (can't remember which office, maybe URA) and asked about writing in to waive off SSD and the officer said my case is not divorce or transfer of inheritance so cannot but can always try... who knows... does anybody has any experience on this? :beats-me-man:

Sure? I can't find the place on the IRAS website that confirms this.
Transfer of inheritance can waive ABSD?He didn't say can but can write in to try...

This should be specifically spelt out. How can suka-suka exempt this? It is a big ticket item.
Well I suppose they will exempt those Ministers etc who inherit large estates.
There is no guarantee they will exempt lesser mortals like us though.

yes caveat is seller have die 1st. So if u can get a dying relative to buy for u and transfer to u. make sure the relative have less then 12mths.. not die before the Option is exercised. and will is stated clearly. if not u might have to wait a long time. or get into legal fight with his children or wife.
but just to safe ABSD is it worth this? u are better off decoupling the current assest.

Thanks everyone for the clarification.
Hmm...I had been trying to figure out how much $$$ I would need if parents/in-laws passed down their property. I wouldn't want to be caught in a situation where have not enough cash to keep the family home due to having to pay ABSD.

Ah that's why I thought it was ambiguous. They deleted "inheritance" but did not specifically state that inheritance is exempted. I was thinking it might fall under the "gift" category!

Morning,
If it s an inherited private property, does IRAS consider it as your first property? Meaning if a family member inherits a PC, he/she cannot buy a HDB anymore?

As far as I know is If one already own a private property, he cannot buy HDB flat anymore.
So it is better to get a HDB flat before you brought any private property....HDB flat got higher rental return than any private property so far.
