Must the house be sold and distributed by Faraid after my demise if it was on the Tenancy-in-common scheme?
Yes, for tenancy-in-common, co-owners hold separate shares in the property. Upon death, the share of the deceased would be passed on to his or her estate.
Distribution of estate via Faraid are handled by appointed executor(s) from within family members or lawyers. If you wish to find out more about how a deceased HDB house is being handled and processed in Singapore, you may refer to HDB for a detailed explanation.
