ylikethat 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2009 The tenancy agreement is dated 1st Oct 08 and stated that tenant would pay landlord monthly sum $XXXX for period from 15 Oct 08 to 14 Oct 09. HDB tenancy expires on 30 Sep 09. Do not understand y agent wrote 15 Oct 09 to 14 Oct 09. Now want to extend without the good for nothing agent. How ar? How to proceed to inform HDB about the extension? better to break the existing agreement and let both side sign a new one? If use the HDB tenancy, date it as when? urgently need advice.

weezersg 5 Report post Posted July 22, 2009 HDB has a standard tenancy agreement which you can use and download from its website. As long as the owner and tenant both agree, you do not have to use/pay an agent. However you have to 'chop' the tenancy agreement and pay stamp duty at IRAS for it to be legally binding.

We have the tenancy agreement from HDB now. But the problem is the existing tenancy agreement signed with the agent last year (see 1st posting). A bit tricky and we do not want to get both landlord and tenants into trouble for not extending the tenancy with the agent. Any kind soul out there can advise?

ylikethat 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2009 anyone? urgently need advise as HDB people do not seem to be helpful on this. Only ask to submit and never give advise on how to do it this time round without the agent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
