I am a serious seller, and my asked C.O.V is just average (high flr / corner unit), which I believe it's quite rare now.To put my question more straight forward, and it shd be -> what if the buyer withdrawn from any of the stages of deal which mentioned above?Anyone can advise on this?

Seller no need to return that 5k. Not even a single cents2) after signed up on the First Appointment.5k deposit - seller takeIf seller has already brought a house etc..can issue lawyer , ask court to tell him to buy by force. Very time consume.Before 1st appointment, is easy to back off.But once after 1st appointment, will be a little mah fun. Better check with HDB officer who take care of your 1st appointment. They should be able to provide u a better advice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoped there won't be any 'hipcup' on buyer side.Great Thanks Bro! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
