Just drop them a mail and confirm whether they wld fault u in future when u sell your place. IMO, I dun think its an issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raincole 0 Report post Posted August 1, 2007 Yar true. HDB rules tend to change every now and then.Right now, my balcony is part of my living room, got furniture and such, so will not be washing heavily, just normal mopping and sweeping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My balcony become part of my living room and we have plan with HDB approval. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My balcony become part of my living room and we have plan with HDB approval.Contractors and IDs can get renovation permits and still do wonders... w/o approval.... i got a friend staying in resale 3 rm, all walls hacked clean clean... from 3 rms become 1 big rm. I asked him about the permit and he replied saying want to sell then see how... kaoz.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
