I guess most young couples won't go for 2-room flat, so it won't affect bto queue so much.

Here's the floor plan of a typical 2 room bto. HDB do not build much of them anyway... not seen in the past few BTO liaoz.

So 2 room hdb is 1 bedroom.

what do u think?

This is a good policy.

FRankly, the way to drop hdb resale price is to allow more people to buy BTO.

Once they commit to BTO, straight away they will be out of the resale demand.

The right policy is to allow PRs to buy BTO but that will not go down well with singaporeans.

Allowing singles to buy is also a good idea. Actually they should allow people with higher pay to buy too but at a less subsidized rate.

I mean why can't HDB built 40k flats a year???

[jwong71]

what do u think?

2i Hdb rental range from 1.5-2k depend locations.
selling price for 3i in sengkang 370k. Resale 2i min 270-300k over
New bto in sengkang from 104k. Guarantee profit 150k-200k

[phantom_opera]

new SC singles > 35y with income < 5k will be elated

[leesg123]

This policy is not meant to make people rich. But to take of that group of singles who do not earn that much yet cant afford a resale. Also, increasing difficult for them to get married too.

Therefore, hdb should NOT allow it to be resold to public, but to return back to hdb so that it can be recycled for the less privileged single.

[mcmlxxvi]

Alot of 2rm not taken up. Govt is smart to open up to singles to soak up the excess.

Win win.
