The upgrade angle
If you're an upgrader in Geylang.
Upgraders here often move one step across to D14 Geylang/Paya Lebar condos, short geographic step, big price jump.
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.
