Here is an overview of the resale process:

Selling your flat

Log in to My Flat Dashboard on HDB Flat Portal to start your journey. You will be guided through the following steps for the selling process:

Step 1: Register Intent to Sell

Register an Intent to Sell and receive a preliminary assessment of your eligibility to sell your HDB flat, when you may grant an Option to Purchase (OTP) to potential flat buyers and reminder to plan your next housing.

After you have registered an Intent to Sell, you may list your flat for sale on the Resale Flat Listing (RFL) service on the HDB Flat Portal. If you have engaged a salesperson, you may appoint him/ her on the HDB Flat Portal to do so on your behalf. Read our guide for more information on the RFL service.

You can either manage the sale on your own or engage the services of a salesperson for a fee. Please read managing the sale of your flat and consider signing up for our resale seminars to learn more about resale policies and procedures.

Step 2: Submit resale application

After your buyers have exercised the OTP, you and the buyers must submit your respective portions of the resale application. If you have arranged a temporary extension of stay with your buyers, you and your buyers will need to state it in the resale application.

Step 3: Endorse documents and pay fees

You and the buyers must acknowledge and endorse the resale documents, and pay the necessary fees.

Step 4: Get resale approval

After the fees are paid, HDB will grant an approval for the resale transaction, and process the application.

Step 5: Attend completion appointment

Resale completion is about 8 weeks from the date of HDB’s acceptance of the resale application. You and the buyers will be notified via SMS once the appointment is scheduled. You may also log in to My Flat Dashboard for the appointment details.
