HDB Q4 resale prices up 1.7%
By BERNICE BONG
SINGAPORE - Prices of HDB resale flats grew slightly in the fourth quarter of last year.
The HDB's flash estimate of the 4th Quarter 2011 Resale Price Index (RPI) is 190.4, an increase of 1.7 per cent over 3rd quarter 2011. The increase is lower than the 3.8 per cent seen in the previous quarter.
Singapore is trying to cool the resale market for HDB apartments by building more new units and tightening the requirements for people eligible to buy them.
For 2012, prospective buyers can look forward to another 25,000 Build-To-Order (BTO) flats. In Jan 2012, 3,890 BTO flats in Choa Chu Kang, Punggol, Sengkang and Tampines will be offered for sale.
