EPF/KWSP withdrawal is applicable for 1st and 2nd house. For 2nd house purchase, the withdrawal can only be processed provided that the 1st house is sold with proof of S&P agreement produced on application.

For your case, as long as u can produced the new S&P agreement showing that u have sold your share to the other on the 1st house, you shouldn't have any problem getting epf withdrawn for the 2nd house purchase.

Do note that epf/kwsp withdrawal is limited to 1st and 2nd house purchase only.

Exactly. Epf will not check your account detail. As long as you can provide proof of ownership transfer at the counter, u can do the withdrawal. Don't forget to bring along your s&p for the 2nd house purchase.

did you manage to get it through?

When you transfer ownership of the house, you will need a new SPA and with that a new financing. How did you manage to transfer the name on the SPA (essentially getting new S&P) without getting a new financing and thus, a new Loan Agreement (LA)?

You will not get the original SPA and geran from the bank unless you make the full settlement of the loan, and once that loan is fully settled, you would need to apply for a new mortgage for the new SPA...
