1) Do nothing and hopefully the price of my flat will increase further
2) Buy a small condo and rent out my flat
3) Sell the flat and buy a smaller new subsidised flat

What would you do or are there any other better options? thanks for the advice.
If I am in your position, I will buy a small condo and rent it out. Use the rent to pay for (at least part of) the mortgage.

But really depends on your priorities in life. If you think you have slogged enough and want to "enjoy" some fruits of your labour. Rent out your flat, buy a condo to live in.
