Is It Legal To Buy Flat Below Valuation?

Recommended Posts

Looking for good contractors? Click here for your request

mm it's legal as long as you report your actual purchase price.

It's illegal if you buy below valuation but report at valuation and get cash back from the seller.

Everything else should be the same ah.. mm

OTP involves a deposit usually given up to max $5k to exercise the option if COV is >= $5k. But in the cases when COV = $0 or selling below valuation, agent will ask to put a small small sum (e.g.$50) to exercise the option.

In ur case, it is legal if u report the true selling price. HDB will not question much unless it is a lot lower than valuation price. Agent fees for buyers r usually 1% of selling price, irregardless of selling below/above valuation.
