When a record 201 HDB resale flats sold for at least $1 million in August 2026, it was easy to draw one conclusion: HDB prices must be surging again. But that is not what the broader data shows. Overall resale prices rose by only 0.1% month-on-month, while transaction volume fell by 5.1% from […]

    The latest housing policy changes sound simple: income ceilings are going up, families with children will receive more ballot chances, and the next BTO launch has been moved to November 2026. But for most homeowners and buyers, the real question is not: What changed? It is: Does this change what my family should

    When the tender for the Berlayar Drive Government Land Sale site closed on 4 August 2026, only one bid was submitted. At first glance, that may sound like developers were not interested. But the sole bid tells a very different story. A joint venture between Hong Leong Holdings and GuocoLand offered $576.78 million,

    Proposed changes could make collective sales easier for ageing developments. But buying or holding a property purely for en bloc potential may still be the wrong way to plan.

    Every time another million-dollar HDB is sold… It becomes headline news. People immediately split into two groups. One group says, “The property market is crazy.” The other says, “My flat will become worth a million too.” But I think both groups are asking the wrong question. The real story isn’t that there are

  For the past few years, many property buyers have been asking the same question: Why buy in the Core Central Region when an RCR new launch is already so expensive? It was a fair question. As new launch prices outside the city climbed, the price difference between the CCR and RCR became increasingly narrow.

  Every time a major new launch enters the market, opinions come quickly. “It’s overpriced.” “The MRT is too noisy.” “The lake view is worth every dollar.” “HDB upgraders won’t be able to afford it.” Lucerne Grand is no different. But rather than relying on opinions, we wanted to study the project the same way

  Ever since Dunearn House was announced, one comparison keeps appearing in conversations, social media discussions, and property forums. “Will Dunearn House become another Fourth Avenue?” It’s a reasonable concern. Both projects are located within the Bukit Timah area. Both appeal to buyers looking for a premium residential address. And because Fourth Avenue Residences didn’t

    Over the past few days, one piece of housing news has caught many homeowners’ attention. For the second consecutive quarter, HDB resale prices have softened slightly. At the same time, private home prices continued to edge upwards, although at a slower pace. On the surface, it doesn’t seem like a huge change. But
