dexufto 5 Report post Posted June 30, 2010 Today was out 1st appointment, Our HDB officer was nice, he learn that we were much in a hurry And facilitated the process smooth and quickly, took an hour and half of waiting , signing of papers and subsequently made our payments. We are now Eight weeks to 2nd Appointment. We returned to our unit to view the place and arranged the contractor for a site-visit. Everything was hasty as we need to rush off for our Wedding Boutique's 1st appointment in within an hour. Phew. More to follow.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
