Deferred Downpayment Scheme (DDS)

Elderly can defer downpayment until key collection.

Overview

The Deferred Downpayment Scheme (DDS) allows elderly individuals who are right-sizing their homes to postpone the payment of the downpayment until they collect the keys to their new flat.

This helps elderly flat owners manage their cash flow when their funds are still tied up in their current property, making the right-sizing process smoother.
