yoongf 11 Report post Posted May 12, 2008 No restriction on who buys private properties. Can even be a company. All restrictions are normally related to HDB properties. For example.. if person owns existing HDB, then when buying private got some things to work out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
latitude 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2008 (edited) no prob for two unreleated persons buy private properties. if one of u own a HDB, within 5years MUP cannot buy private prop. if either one own a HDB, then property tax will be 10% (instead of 4% for owner staying). u need to chk out CPF rulings too (ie. if already using CPF for one property, need to set aside minimum sum in the CPF a/c, before it can be used for 2nd house). U two need to decide manners of holding (joint tenants or tenants-in-common). basically if two of u do not own any property, no major issues. if u do not use CPF, even less issue.
