The upgrade angle
If you're an upgrader in Kallang / Whampoa.
One of the strongest city-fringe HDB catchments. Upgraders have short geographic jump to D8/D12 condos.
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.
