raincole 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2007 If your own mum is staying in the same area, then you are getting 40k. If no parents living in the same area, then it is 30k for first timer.But I dunno how you plan to buy over the house from your mil. It is better to just transfer, then can save on more expenses that involved buying/selling house. But then, you need to pay back the cpf mil has contributed and continue on with the loan.Is there a reason why you want to buy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's great! heheee....yay........ someone asked me that qtn too. Haha...well i think it's simply because my MIL wants to 'downsize' to a smaller house and she wants to stay with 2 other children, that's why. She'll be getting her own flat & moving out.But then again, i oso duno really know what's the difference leh. Haha. Maybe makes things easier? Good qtn ah...
