The Government will monitor trends very closely in the next few quarters.
HDB flats for sale increased in price by 1.8 per cent during the first quarter 2024. The previous quarter saw an increase of just 1.1 percent. The figures released by the board show that the price of HDB resale flats increased for the 16th straight quarter since the second half of 2020.
In the first quarter of this year, according to the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s (URA) statistics, prices for private residential real estate rose by 1.4%.
Resale prices (HDBs) will fluctuate seasonally and quarter-to-quarter. Look at the trend, year by, and you’ll see that last year’s growth in resale was much lower than it was for 2022. 2022’s growth is also lower than its year before.
HDB resale rates rose 4.9 percent in 2023. However, this was less than the 10.4 percentage increase in 2020 and the 12.7% growth in 2021.
HDB’s response to the Covid-19 epidemic has been largely successful, with the company continuing to launch more Build-To Order (BTO), flats.
