Congrats!
You are one step closer to becoming a homeowner.
It is important to inspect a new HDB BTO for defects before moving in or beginning renovation.
You cannot claim compensation from the government if you discover defects after you have moved in.
​
So, it is best that you resolve all defects before commencing renovation. Ignoring defects can lead to problems such as popped floor tiles and flooding. These can be difficult and costly to fix.
IS YOUR BTO READY TO RENOVATE?
​TIPS AND THINGS TO NOTE WHEN CHECKING FOR DEFECTS
-
When you collect your keys from HDB, ask for multiple copies of the Defects Feedback Form.
-
Please submit your property defects list within seven days of collecting your keys.
