I earn $3000 a month, and my wife earns $1500 a month before CPF. We have 3 children. What HDB flats in the northeast region would be suitable for us?

Given your combined household income of $4,500 per month (before CPF), you are well within the income ceilings for various HDB flat types.

For a family with three children, here are some recommendations in the Northeast region of Singapore:

4-Room Flats

• These flats are suitable for larger families and are available in various Northeast region towns such as Hougang, Sengkang, and Punggol. The income ceiling for a 4-room flat is $14,000, which you are below.

3-Room Flats

• If you prefer a slightly smaller space, 3-room flats are also an option. The income ceiling for 3-room flats is $7,000 or $14,000, depending on the project, so you would qualify for these as well.

Location Considerations

• Hougang: Known for its amenities, schools, and transportation links.
• Sengkang: Offers a mix of new and mature estates with good access to schools, shopping malls, and public transport.
• Punggol: A popular area with new developments, parks, and a growing community.
