It will be a great milestone that housing is for people if they truly hits 200K but i feel is an election gimmick. Mr Khaw already starts to cutback BTO if i understand correctly. So much for his resolve. Maybe they have no plan to up the population anymore. Wink

Hi,

This chart is posted by MND (Mr Khaw Blog) and cannot be wrong. Cutting back BTO will affect 3 to 4 years target and not the coming years.

All the more must trust your own instinct... since like i always say, they created a problem, can't solve it, try to solve it and compound it...

Hi Blancfab,

You are right as these new charts are based on the number of BTO projects in construction. The only figure which may be affected is the 2017 figure. This is because there was a deliberate slowdown in BTO launches and thus did not meet the 25k target. It is likely, only 23k flats will be launched this year. So all in all, there is about 198k new units supply till 2017.

Moving away from figures, the Singapore private market is not very good in my view. While we do see moderate take up rate thus far, it is important to use another indicator which is to check "the no of lights lit up in new projects". This is because, it is likely many Singaporeans have bought second, third properties in recent times. It is not unusual to find many private strata units purchased by owners with a HDB address. My conjunction is that not many of such owners are upgraders but instead are "investors" who seek to get retirement income by buying a sec property on the premises 1) can rent out flat to get rental income or 2) ppty price will never fall what.

Again, as many here will know the local ppty market is neutral with many developers cutting price to move units. The most recent is lake life (BBR and OKP) who are selling units at $857. Furthermore, given that Chinese developers are coming in, our local developers will find it hard to extract the 20-30% profit margin they once enjoyed. This explains why so many have branched overseas with the stubbon few (Sing Holdings) getting outbid by overseas developers in land bidding

I think Khaw has achieved what he started to do vs his predecessor. Credit where credit is due. I think his resolve is in tact

It is roughly right to trim down on the BTO supply "scare" at this point.
