Guys,
I have a HDB flat which has not met the 5 years minimum
occupation. I work overseas.
Does anyone know in the eyes of HDB, what constitutes continuous
living ? Does returning to Singapore and living in the flat for 4
to 5 months a year represent continuous living ?
Do parents who live in the flat while owners are away overseas
for long periods working, still form part of the min. occupation
period ?
Question: for those who have rented their flat out while working
overseas and have not met min. occupation period, what is the
longest period that HDB allowed you to do so ?
I suspect in my case, I might be forced to return to Singapore
because the officer in charge of my flat- hearing that I might be
in Australia for maybe 10 years- appears to be reluctant (just
hearing from his voice) to renew my application for renting flat
out. Of cause I might just be too sensitive. Its been 4 years of
renting flat out. There is nothing on the HDB website that
stipulates max period allowed, thus I assume indefinitely.
Thanks for anyone helping, I just do not want to break any rules
but at the same time, I just don't want HDB refuse my renting
renewal request, and I'm completely amongst other things and
especially financially, unprepared.
