What the Resale Levy Is, and Who Pays It at Coastal Cabana
The resale levy is a fixed sum payable by a household that has already received a housing subsidy from the state and is buying a second subsidised home. Buying Coastal Cabana directly from the developer counts as buying a second subsidised home, because HDB treats Executive Condominium units sold by developers as subsidised housing: their prices sit below comparable private residential property of similar attributes.
That means the levy applies to second-timers, meaning a household in which either applicant has previously bought a subsidised flat from HDB or received a CPF Housing Grant. First-timer households pay no levy and may instead qualify for a CPF Housing Grant of up to $30,000, as set out on our eligibility page.
The amount is set by the flat previously sold, not by the unit being bought. A 5-room seller pays the 5-room rate whether they go on to buy the smallest 3 Bedroom Deluxe or the largest 5 Bedroom Premium at Coastal Cabana. Nothing about the size, stack or price of the new unit changes it.
Resale Levy Rates
For a first subsidised flat sold on or after 3 March 2006, the levy is a fixed amount:
| First subsidised flat type | Family | Single |
|---|---|---|
| 2-room or 2-room Flexi flat | $15,000 | $7,500 |
| 3-room flat | $30,000 | $15,000 |
| 4-room flat | $40,000 | $20,000 |
| 5-room flat | $45,000 | $22,500 |
| 3Gen flat | $45,000 | Not applicable |
| Executive flat | $50,000 | $25,000 |
| Executive Condominium | $55,000 | $27,500 |
The single rate is exactly half the family rate in every case, and applies where the purchase is made under a scheme for single applicants. The 3Gen flat has no single rate, since that flat type requires a multi-generation household.
A different basis applies to a first subsidised flat sold before 3 March 2006. Those cases are calculated as a percentage of the resale price rather than as a fixed sum, and are not covered by the table above. Check the position directly with HDB.
The calculator above estimates the amount. HDB assesses the actual sum against the household’s own record, so treat the output as a planning figure and confirm it with an HDB Branch Office before committing. Our Developer Sales team can walk through when and how the levy is paid.
