    Dear Sir, I assume that the transaction is a HDB flat.
    You pay an Option fee of $1000.To Exercise Option buyer must pay
    an additional $4000 at OTP.This become a binding contract neither
    parties can back out without being sue.It seemed that you have
    not entered into OTP as you only pay up $1000 and after 14 days
    of cooling-off period the seller has legal right to forfeit your
    $1000 deposit.It is better to treat this as a learning lesson.
    Next time engage a real estate agent to help you handle your
    property transaction.
