The upgrade angle
If you're an upgrader in Bukit Batok.
JRL catalyst + Tengah proximity make this a watch list town for upgraders timing entry into Jurong Lake District.
The sequencing that matters
- MOP timing, have you cleared the 5 year minimum occupation period? If not, when will you?
- Sell first vs buy first, the single most expensive sequencing decision for HDB upgraders. Varies by ABSD exposure and financing.
- Cash proceeds vs CPF refund, running the CPF accrued interest math (see article) before you list.
- ABSD remission window, 6 month rule after completion of your new property, strictly enforced.
