We host sisters Rhonda (front row on right) and Race Wong (front row on left) - who are co-founders of Ohmyhome, that is aiming to make housing transactions in Singapore simple, fast and affordable.

They explain the steps and mindset you need to have, if you are ready to sell or buy a HDB flat:

1. Do you want to engage a property agent or do-it-yourself within your set time frame?
2. Family members selling to each other: Does this scenario apply to your case?
3. How much paperwork is involved? You can also pay for just documentation preparation services
4. Understanding finance calculation and bank or HDB loans
5. Decide what is the most important criteria for yourself: Is it money or location?

You can download HDB's app too.
