Corrections policy
Plain English: when we get something wrong, we fix it, note the change, and ship the update. If you spot an error, tell us — a correction that changes a decision outcome is the highest-priority fix we handle.
What counts as a correction
We distinguish between three levels of change:
- Material correction: a factual error, wrong formula, outdated policy rule, or incorrect rate that changes the decision output for a reader. These are fixed immediately and noted on the affected page.
- Clarification: the underlying logic was correct but the explanation was misleading, incomplete, or easy to misread. We update the page and bump the "Last updated" date.
- Minor fix: typos, formatting, broken links, or cosmetic issues. We fix these in the next scheduled update without a separate correction note.
How corrections appear on pages
When a material correction is made, the affected page's "Last updated" date is refreshed. For significant changes — such as a calculator formula fix or a policy-rule update — we note the change in the version history tracked in our project brief. Every versioned release includes a description of what changed and why.
How to report an error
Email contact@ownershipguide.com with:
- the page URL,
- what you entered (inputs) and what you expected,
- the official source link if you have one (e.g., IRAS, CPF Board, HDB, LTA).
We verify against primary sources where possible before shipping a fix. If we cannot verify the report, we note the disputed point and may add an assumption disclosure.
Response time
Material corrections — errors that change a decision outcome — are prioritised above all other site work. We aim to verify and fix these within one update cycle. Clarifications and minor fixes are batched into the next scheduled release.
Limitations
Our calculators and frameworks are planning models, not personalised advice. Some corrections may reflect policy changes by government agencies (CPF Board, IRAS, HDB, LTA) that take effect between our update cycles. If you are making a time-sensitive decision, confirm current rules directly with the relevant agency or your professional adviser.
