Your standard flat should have HDB tiles for the floor and walls at the kitchen, bomb shelter, service yard and both bathrooms. And you are NOT to do any reno work on these tiles for 3 years because HDB will make you sign a document during key collection. This is to save the earth by not wasting material. Doors are all provided too, these you can discard if you don't like them. As for loans, during key collection you sign the lease which will deduct one month of loan repayment upfront because the paperwork will take a while to process (ie you collect keys the flat not yet yours)...about 14 days to 1 month later, the lease contract is issued when CPF is happy that you can pay HDB so they give money to HDB and HDB issue your house contract. Thats when you get back your option money too. At that time, your monthly loan repayment should start (ie slightly later than keys date). One of the reason for this is that to qualify for the CPF loan, your HPS must be approve to cover the loan in case you die, so processing of this insurance by CPF takes awhile when you submit the application during key dates Did you give ALL your CPF monies to HDB or did you give minimum 10% + all necessary cost like stamp fees, HPS etc only?

isc90152 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2008 Care to share what model of air con u got and how much?haha. cos i planning to get system 4 also.. thanks a lot. On the topic of air-cons, I went around scouting in courts & gain city. I was told to get a Sys 3 + 1. The "1" being a unit with higher BTU for living room. Any comments on this setup? Is it 1 cheaper to buy? 2 cheaper to maintain? Is the trunking the same? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any comments on this setup? Is it 1 cheaper to buy? 2 cheaper to maintain? Is the trunking the same? I also went to gain city. here's what I was told: 1. more expensive because you will buy 2 condensers. 2. more expensive to maintain than sys 3 or 4 3. trunking would be done separately for sys 3, and for the +1 I bought Toshiba sys 3 (2 x 9000BTU and 1 x 16000BTU) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
