Frequently asked questions about legal property transactions

Answers to the most common questions about buying real estate in Singapore and how legal support protects your interests.

Can a foreigner legally buy an apartment in Singapore?

Yes, foreigners are allowed to purchase private condominiums and executive condominiums after their Minimum Occupation Period (MOP). However, HDB flats are restricted. Our legal team will review your eligibility and ensure your transaction aligns with current regulations, including Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty (ABSD) and property ownership caps. We also assist with all required legal clearances.

What documents do I need when buying an apartment?

You’ll typically need proof of identity, proof of income, approval in-principle from your lender, the Option to Purchase (OTP), and Sale and Purchase Agreement. Our lawyers will ensure all documentation is accurate and complete. We can also draft and submit legal declarations, consent forms, and title transfer applications.

How long does the legal process take?

For a standard private condominium, the legal process usually takes 8 to 12 weeks from Option to Purchase to final completion. This timeline includes legal searches, contract review, and title transfer. Urgent cases can be expedited depending on document readiness and bank approvals. Our firm is known for working within tight deadlines.

How much do legal services for buying an apartment cost?

Our legal services are offered at fixed prices starting from SGD 2,500 for standard condo purchases. This includes due diligence, contract review, and completion procedures. Additional fees may apply for HDB flats or transactions involving complex legal structures. We provide a full quotation after the initial consultation, with no hidden charges.
