Proposed Flexibility on MOP for Owners Who Bought 2-room Flexi Flats When Single and Subsequently Required Larger Flats after Family Formation

Dr Choo Pei Ling asked the Minister for National Development to support pro-family policies announced at the National Day Rally, whether HDB will consider greater flexibility specifically for owners who bought a 2-room Flexi flat when single and subsequently married and had children, where the flat is no longer suitable for the enlarged household, to move to a larger flat before fulfilling the Minimum Occupation Period, with safeguards against speculation.

Mr Chee Hong Tat: This question has been addressed in the Ministry of National Development's reply to a similar question asked by Mr David Hoe on 8 September 2026.
