Read on to find out more!<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>#1: Fresh Start Housing Scheme<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hdb.gov.sg\/cs\/infoweb\/residential\/buying-a-flat\/new\/schemes-and-grants\/fresh-start-housing-scheme\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fresh Start Housing Scheme<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is applicable for second-timer families with children below the age of 16, who are currently living in public rental flats. (Second-timer families refer to those who have previously enjoyed one housing subsidy). Under this scheme, you\u2019ll be able to purchase a short-lease 2-room Flexi flat in BTO or SBF sales exercises. Lease options range from 45 years to 65 years &#8211; these are all more affordable than <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/leasehold-property-99-years\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">standard 99-year lease flats<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The scheme in a nutshell:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Buy a two-room flexi flat on a shorter lease. HDB concessionary rate loans and Fresh Start Housing Grants of up to $35,000 may also be applicable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Caveats: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At least one of the applicants must have been in stable employment for the past 12 months. Also, there is a 20 year Minimum Occupation Period if you purchase a house under this scheme.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>#2: Parenthood Provisional Housing Scheme (PPHS)<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hdb.gov.sg\/cs\/infoweb\/residential\/renting-a-flat\/renting-from-hdb\/parenthood-provisional-housing-scheme-pphs\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PPHS<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> helps to temporarily house families as they await the completion of their new flats (by allowing them to rent flats at a reduced price). Whilst this was previously only available to families with young children, HDB has since loosened the reins, with the rental units is now available to all first-timer couples who have booked an uncompleted flat under the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/bto-flat-2018\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BTO<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/sales-balance-flats\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SBF<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> exercise. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to National Development Minister Lawrence Wong, over 2,000 families have benefitted from the PPHS since it was launched, and more than 400 babies have been born to families living in these PPHS flats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The scheme in a nutshell: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First-timer couples awaiting the completion of their flats can rent units at rates that are up to 50% cheaper than those offered by landlords nearby.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Caveats<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: There are <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hdb.gov.sg\/cs\/infoweb\/residential\/renting-a-flat\/renting-from-hdb\/parenthood-provisional-housing-scheme-pphs\/flat-types\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">limited flats available<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, so there\u2019s no guarantee that you\u2019ll be able to nab yourself a unit. Also, if you\u2019re applying under the Fianc\u00e9\/Fianc\u00e9e Scheme, you\u2019ll have to submit your marriage certificate to HDB within 3 months of taking possession of your PPHS flat.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>#3: Staggered Downpayment Scheme<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hdb.gov.sg\/cs\/infoweb\/residential\/buying-a-flat\/new\/staggered-downpayment-scheme\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Staggered Downpayment Scheme<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you\u2019ll be paying your <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/3-important-basics-singaporeans-must-know-when-it-comes-to-your-home-downpayment\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">downpayment<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in two instalments, instead of in a single lump sum. Half of the amount will be paid when you sign the Agreement for Lease (which typically happens within four months of booking a flat). The remaining amount is paid on your key collection date.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The scheme in a nutshell:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> An extended runway for you to pay the downpayment for your flat. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Caveats:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Only those who have booked an uncompleted flat will be eligible for this scheme. On top of that, the flat application has to be submitted on or before the younger applicant\u2019s 30th birthday.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>#4: Deferred Downpayment Scheme<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This one might not be as applicable for you &#8211; so pass along the information to friends and family who might find it useful! The <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hdb.gov.sg\/cs\/infoweb\/residential\/buying-a-flat\/new\/schemes-and-grants\/deferred-downpayment-scheme\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Deferred Downpayment Scheme<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> essentially enables elderly who are right-sizing to defer the payment of downpayment until key collection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the DDS, elderly flat buyers are only required to pay the stamp duty and legal fees when they sign the Agreement for Lease (instead of paying the entire downpayment). These flat buyers need only pay the purchase price of the flat once it is ready for key collection (usually a few years later). <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The scheme in a nutshell:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Homeowners aged 55 years old and above who are applying for a 2-room Flexi or 3-room flat in a BTO or SBF exercise can get to defer their downpayment until they collect their keys.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Caveats: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As long as the applicant has not sold or completed the sale of their existing flat at the point of new flat application, they\u2019re eligible. The good news: the DDS is extended automatically to all eligible flat buyers; there\u2019s no application needed!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>#5: Temporary Loan Scheme<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hdb.gov.sg\/cs\/infoweb\/residential\/buying-a-flat\/new\/schemes-and-grants\/temporary-loan-scheme\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Temporary Loan Scheme (TLS)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> helps flat buyers who intend to use the sale proceeds from their existing flat to pay for a new flat (without taking out a mortgage). Here\u2019s how it works: while the sale of their existing flat is underway, flat buyers should first apply for a temporary loan, so that they may complete the purchase of their new flat. This temporary loan will be redeemed subsequently, using the net proceeds from the sale of the existing flat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The scheme in a nutshell: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using a temporary loan, buyers can sell their existing flat and purchase a new one without <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/mortgage-refinancing-singaporean-homeowners\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">taking out a mortgage<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Caveats: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In order to qualify for the TLS, you must have booked a new flat (with the keys being ready for collection), submitted an application to sell your existing flat, and have a sufficient CPF balance (or sufficient cash proceeds from the sale of your flat) such that you may fully redeem the temporary loan<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Check out other rental related articles here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/should-ask-questions-tenants-singapore\/\">Should Ask Questions (SAQ) for tenants in Singapore<\/a> and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/rental-property-illegal-activities\/\">How to tell if your rental property is being used for illegal activities<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Find the rental home of your dreams today at Singapore\u2019s largest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/?utm_source=blog%20main%20site%20conversion\">property portal 99.co<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looking to buy or rent a house?
