We Make $330k Per Year And Own An Executive HDB: Should We Buy A Resale Condo Or A Dual-Key 3 Bedder?
My wife and I will be 42 & 43 respectively this year. We have 3 primary school going children and a helper. Our annual income adds up to about $330k. We are currently staying in HDB EA in Jurong area, with remaining loan of $270k. We plan to sell our house (hopefully to sell at $800k) to fund the next purchase. We would like to seek your advice on the following options:
1. Buy a resale leasehold 3 bedder condo (not more than 20 yrs old) + keep the cash profit and wait for better investment opportunities
2. Buy a resale leasehold 3 bedder condo (not more than 20 yrs old) + 1/2 bedder for investment (to sell in next 3-5 yrs).
3. Buy a 4/5 bedder dual key condo and rent out the studio side for the next 3-5 yrs.
4. Jointly buy a freehold 3/4 bedder in district 14/15.
Which option would be most recommended based? Or would there be an option 5?
I have forgotten to include our Available cash outlay is $100k and CPF OA is $210k.

Before delving into the options, let’s first assess your affordability….
