Resale sellers and buyers
HDB sale proceeds
Estimate the cash left from a sale after the outstanding loan, the CPF refund and the selling costs you type. The CPF refund is restored to CPF. It is not cash you can withdraw, and it is not added to the cash figure.
If you are taking a second HDB concessionary loan, you can also illustrate the cash HDB generally takes into account. That illustration runs only when you explicitly use this estimate, or when you type a figure HDB or the completion account has stated. It is not an HDB assessment and it does not confirm a loan.
HDB housing loan page, updated 4 November 2026, read 7 November 2026. CPF refund and Ordinary Account retention follow the CPF pages linked below. Seller’s stamp duty is not calculated here. Type it in selling costs if you want it deducted, or use the stamp duty worksheet.
The sale
The two required amounts are added. A shortfall is not divided between the sellers.
At market value, CPF credits only the price left after the housing loan when that is less than the required refund. A cash top-up is not calculated.
Second HDB concessionary loan
This is about an earlier HDB housing loan, not a grant first-timer or second-timer. Resale clients who are not taking that second loan can stop at the cash and CPF figures.
The general higher-of-S$25,000-or-50% sentence is not applied to this case.
Ordinary Account
Optional. Each applicant is separate. Up to S$20,000 may be retained on an HDB loan, and that amount is not compulsory. A bank loan may retain any amount. Leave this unset if you only want the sale figures.
Applicant 1
Applicant 2
Enter the sale price, the outstanding loan, the required CPF refund and the selling costs. Type 0 where a deduction does not apply.
Where this sits
The Upgrade budget on Property Tools still calculates seller’s stamp duty inside its five steps. Its loan list is a bank loan, an HDB concessionary loan, or no loan. It does not split a first and a second HDB loan. The BTO affordability estimate still asks for verified cash proceeds on its one-applicant second-loan path. It does not read this page.

HDB decides the cash it uses, including where a court order or the manner of holding applies. This page does not confirm eligibility, a concessionary rate, a commercial rate, a grant, or a Full Retirement Sum top-up. Two applicants are illustrated separately. The BTO planner remains one applicant only.
