    Actually there's nothing wrong with selling then. Basically she just realised her gains. What is more useful to know is what she did with the money? Reinvest overseas? In herself as in have a better time overseas? Pay for parents' holidays or medical bills? Etc... then certainly there's no regret. Unless she just left her gains idling in the bank. Do you know the answer?

    So if the agent then told her now to sell now drop until no 1 want. Will she still want to **** him?

    Moral of story is its own decision. Wat ever out come have to suck it up.

    I would congratulate your friend.

    half full or half empty?

    You decide your view. I choose to see it as the former.

    well done!

    Selling a FH property in good location is like selling your own mother... Unless the gains you realize can strategically fund a more promising investment, which I doubt exist.

    eh, i thought it's the other way round. once you own a private property, you're barred from purchasing a HDB till you disposed the current property and remain on the streets for 2 years

    that is for BTO i.e new hdb you cannot buy until 30 mths after you sold your private property....and if you buy a resale HDB flat you not allowed to buy private property as well as overseas property for 5 years(MOP)
