Should I buy a 1 bedroom condo (freehold) ?

Im a single child age 28 staying with parents.
i plan to stay with my parents even when i am married therefore considering to buy a 1 bedroom condo (freehold) would it be a wise choice??

as i would inherit the HDB after my parents pass on, so was wondering would it be better to get a condo instead of a HDB.
plan is to rent out the 1 room Condo while staying with parents.

would wanna see more inputs from everybody here.

Points for consideration:

  • Staying with parents as a married couple - not easy. You may eventually still choose to do so, but think long and hard about this. Discuss with your partner also.

  • Your parents' HDB the lease can outlast you? What's your gameplan when it ends?

  • Affordability of condo. You didn't provide much info, so I assume you have mapped out the finances necessary for purchase of a freehold condo (which, depending on your location, will invariably be more expensive than leasehold).

  • Inheritance of HDB. You cannot inherit a HDB whilst owning a private property. You will have to sell one or the other.

Hope this was helpful.​​​
