Key Collection & 开门大吉!

Finally the day arrive!

After a long wait it is finally our turn to collect key!

Our appointment was on 23/05/2014, so almost 3 years after we select our flat we finally got our keys!

Things to bring:
1) IC of both applicants.
2) Marriage Cert
3) Appointment Letter

I keep reminding myself to bring all this, but yeah shit happens, on the day itself, Stanley fetch me from school, I left our marriage cert in school, thus have to go back and collect it. >.< Poor Stanley have to drive back and fro after his night shift work, he was like super moody and tired i guess. Opps.

Once we reach HDB Hub, we got our Q number and head up to level 2 to get the fire insurance. Upgraded it to cover the inside as well, it is about $65+ per year, which is quite alright since Aviva charge @ $70 per year for almost the same coverage.

Our Q number! Huat Ah! 


Us, both shag from work! 

After we get the keys and sign millions of documents telling us the loan, this and that, we head up to make payment for the town council; $51.50 for AHGPE Town Council; and yup, we are under WP, opposition side. We also started a PUB/SP account; $100. 

Total amount in cash payment:
1) $326 (Fire insurance + Upgrade to cover inside; 5 years premium) 
2) $51.50 (Town Council) 
3) $100 (Deposit for PUB / SP Account, will be return upon closure of account; when you sell the house) 

After the payment you go back to the sales officer to collect all the documents for your house and you are free to go! 

Stanley back with the keys! 

Did not open door on the same day as we were too tired! So yup, rest rest rest. Will head down on Sunday, 25/05/2014 to open door with my mum and dad. 

So Sunday came and we all head down, but before that there were a few things to buy, we are not really particular about the religious stuff we need to do to open door, so we just did the most "basic" kind of things for the fun of it, no harm right?

So yup, got the following:
1) One Pineapple
2) Eight Oranges
3) One Huat Kuek
4) Rice & Salt Mixture

Here we are ready to OPEN DOOR! 

Us with the door.

So this is what you do according to my parents before you open the door, 
1) Kick the door 3 times 
2) Say lots of good things
3) Throw a handful of rice and salt mixture at the door
4) Open the door
5) Roll the pineapple and oranges in
6) Place the Huat Kuek at the centre of the living room
7) Throw rice and salt mixture at all corners of the house
