silverfox88 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2018 Hi all, Was just wondering if anyone have had experience of relocating the HDB main door and would be willing to share your experience with me. HDB is currently preventing me to shift my entrance even though it will not affect my neighbours or block the common corridor. They have cited this as their reason but I do not quite believe them and I think they are just lazy and cannot be bothered to help: 1) The external face of the unit boundary wall along the common corridor are consider common property under TC’s maintenance. Individual units are not allowed to carry out hacking work and relocate the main entrance. Thanks to all who would share with me your experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snoozee 98 Report post Posted February 9, 2018 you do not "own" your flat. your flat "ownership" is under a 99 years (or whatever balance years there is) lease from HDB and they have the rights to allow or disallow you to do whatever your want to it. So in this case, HDB as the actual "owner" of your flat has disallowed you to relocate the main entrance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No doubt that is true but I have also come across forumers here (perhaps inactive now) that have successfully relocated their entrance. Would just like to find out more about the process/regulations etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would just like to find out more about the process/regulations etc. well, there might be cases where it had been allowed previously. But government agencies always update their regulations every now and then. So whatever happened in the past which was applied based on old regulations will no longer count based on today's regulations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
