Yes, the seller of a resale HDB flat with a bank loan can use an HDB lawyer.
For resale HDB transactions, sellers typically engage their own lawyer of choice, including those approved by HDB for conveyancing, regardless of whether they have a bank loan on the property. This lawyer handles the seller's side of the resale process, such as preparing documents and coordinating with HDB.
Key points:
- HDB approves lawyers for resale transactions, and sellers can select from this panel.
- The buyer's lawyer choice depends on their financing: HDB loan requires an HDB lawyer, while a bank loan requires a lawyer from the bank's panel.
- Both parties submit their portions of the resale application to HDB independently, with no restriction on the seller's lawyer based on their existing loan.
