For safety reasons, it is advisable to have someone with you when conducting a viewing.
Either you or the buyer may reconfirm the viewing schedule the day before. You may contact the buyer and send a message like this; "Hi, see you tomorrow at 7 pm in my flat at Block 671B Unit #04-06 Serangoon Road for the viewing. Please confirm that you are coming. Thank you."
Do not let your buyer wait, be prepared to show off your home to the potential buyer.
Thank the buyer for his time and ask him a specific date when he can update you about his decision. It is advisable to follow up with the buyer within a week.
Appointments and offers are made through the in-app chat with the Buyer. The Buyer may offer a lower purchase price, be prepared to negotiate and agree on the resale price of the flat with the Buyer.
You will grant an Option to Purchase (OTP) to the Buyer to purchase the resale flat at the agreed resale price. In exchange, the Buyer pays an Option Fee to you.
Once an OTP is issued, it is only valid for 21 days. If you haven't issued the OTP, then you can continue to schedule viewings. But if you have issued, your offer is for a fixed period (“Option Period”) during which the you cannot sell the flat or make offers to other buyers.
Upon exercise of the Option to Purchase, the Buyer and you enter into a binding contract for the sale and purchase of the resale flat. If you have an existing loan with a bank, you will need to engage a lawyer for conveyancing and loan redemption. Learn more about Conveyancing in Singapore.
