SINGAPORE - The Housing Board has warned property agents against approaching flat sellers through its resale listing portal to offer their services, amid a rise in the number of agents applying for HDB Flat Eligibility (HFE) letters.
Prospective buyers need an HFE letter – which indicates their eligibility to buy a flat, receive grants and financing options – to schedule viewings of units listed on HDB’s resale flat listing (RFL) service, which was officially launched on May 30.
Property agents who are not appointed by a buyer would not be able to contact sellers on the portal, unless they have an HFE letter.
