Hack or not hack

[Globaltrooper 0]

Hi

i just bought a Resales 3 room hdb corner unit and am thinking of hacking down the wall between the guest room to the living room.

will this affect the value of the flat?

If you are satisfied with lesser rooms, then you can extend your living space. But, you should be fully convinced that you will manage without guest rooms.

U have to have your floor plan ready , ( can also be bought from HDB online  for $5 )

 

U need to check if the wall in the plan is sold black colour or a outine only , if  only outline then congrats, else u need to see if its the wall or ' beam' that is weight bearing..... ( let your contractor or ID ) check for you. He will need to submit a form to HDB to see if the hacking works is approved or not
