Buying of HDB

For the option fee, does anyone know how to pay it? Like cash/nets/paywave?

Also, on HDB's website under key collection stamp duty and legal fees, can someone explain what does HDB's roles (eg. HDB acts for you in purchase and mortgage) mean? If HDB does not act for you means you buy through property agent? I'm quite confused over this part.

Also, what is the mortgagee solicitor's bill and how much do we have to pay?

For mortgage in-escrow registration fee, when is it paid? Because it's not stated in their table.

HDB purchase usually no credit card payments. Just solely cash/bank payment. HDB has various calculator you can use to computer legal fee etc. All resale and BTO has to go through HDB as they are the 'landlord', only they can process or make legal the transaction. Agent only helps w resale viewing.

Mortgagee solicitor's bill etc is relevant only if you are taking HDB loan.

You can pay by nets ...
