The latest enhancement to the portal aims to streamline the process of buying and selling a flat.SINGAPORE — Owners of Housing Board flats or their property agents will have the option to list their homes for sale on the HDB Flat Portal from May 13.
Buyers will need an HDB Flat Eligibility letter — which indicates their eligibility to buy a flat, receive grants as well as financing options — to schedule viewings with sellers. This is so they can make an informed decision on their listed price, which promotes a more sustainable property market in the long run, HDB added.
HDB added that it will work with the Council for Estate Agencies to investigate and take enforcement action if property agents are suspected of professional misconduct. To make the HDB Flat Portal a "one-stop platform" for buyers, the resale flat listing service will be integrated with financial calculators, loan listing services and information on the buyer's HFE letter.
HDB said it would reach out to eligible flat sellers by e-mail from the soft launch on May 13 to provide them early access to list their homes on the platform. They can also appoint property agents to do so on their behalf.The board said the service was developed in collaboration with the public and industry stakeholders, including real estate agencies and property portals.
