Four HDB Estates - That Are Nearing Million-Dollar Deals
Property Insight

The report on "Four HDB Estates - That Are Nearing Million-Dollar Deals" provides a comprehensive analysis of the rising trend in HDB resale transactions crossing the million-dollar mark in Singapore, particularly focusing on non-mature estates.

Market Trends and Highlights:

In 2023, Singapore witnessed a 27.4% increase in million-dollar HDB resale transactions, totalling 470 deals, up from 369 in the previous year. This trend continued into the first two months of 2024, with 124 such transactions recorded, a significant increase from the 64 recorded during the same period in 2023. Despite these high-value sales, they constitute only a small fraction (1.8%) of the overall resale market.

Case Studies of Non-Mature Estates:

The report focuses on four non-mature estates: Choa Chu Kang, Jurong West, Sembawang, and Sengkang, providing insights into their individual market dynamics and development prospects.

Sengkang: Sengkang has seen a consistent increase in maximum resale prices, reaching approximately $963.0k in early 2024. The development of amenities such as Compass One mall and Sengkang General Hospital has significantly enhanced the area's residential appeal.

Sembawang: The average maximum resale price in Sembawang was around $782.8k in 2023. Developments like the Canberra MRT station and the upcoming North-South Corridor are expected to boost property values through enhanced accessibility and connectivity.

Jurong West: With an average maximum resale price of around $900.8k in 2023, Jurong West is poised for substantial transformation, including the development of Jurong Lake District and Jurong Innovation District, which are expected to establish it as a major economic and innovation hub.

Choa Chu Kang: This area has an upward trajectory in property values, with average maximum resale prices reaching $885.9k in early 2024. Upcoming developments, such as a new integrated hospital in nearby Tengah, are likely to impact property values positively.

Future Outlook:

The analysis suggests a strong potential for the first million-dollar transactions in these estates due to continuous improvements in amenities, connectivity, and the intrinsic appeal of newer, spacious housing units like Executive Maisonettes. The expected completion of significant infrastructural projects will further enhance the liveability and desirability of these areas, potentially pushing resale values to surpass the million-dollar threshold.

This research underscores the dynamic nature of Singapore's HDB resale market and highlights the growing attractiveness of non-mature estates as residential choices due to ongoing and planned developments.

Bayshore Drive GLS Tender Attracts $2.13 Billion Top Bid Amid Strong Developer Confidence

The Bayshore Drive Government Land Sale (GLS) tender attracted three competitive bids, with a consortium comprising Frasers Property, Sunway MCL, Sekisui House and Lum Chang submitting the highest bid of $2.13 billion, translating to $1,323 psf per plot ratio (psf ppr). Although this was below the $1,388 psf ppr achieved by the neighbouring Bayshore Road GLS site, now launched as Vela Bay, the difference reflects the distinct planning and development requirements of the Bayshore Drive parcel rather than weaker developer sentiment.

The site is expected to yield approximately 1,280 residential units, making it one of the largest private residential developments within the emerging Bayshore precinct. Unlike a conventional residential project, the site will also incorporate an integrated bus interchange and supporting commercial components alongside Bedok South MRT Station. These additional infrastructure and construction requirements likely influenced developers' bidding strategies while still demonstrating confidence in the area's long-term growth potential.

The encouraging participation from three bidders highlights that developers remain willing to pursue sizeable land parcels where they see strong underlying demand. Confidence has also been supported by the successful launch of neighbouring Vela Bay, which reportedly achieved more than 72% sales during its launch weekend, reinforcing buyer acceptance of the Bayshore precinct. Combined with excellent MRT connectivity, established amenities and the Government's long-term plans for the East Coast, these factors continue to strengthen the investment appeal of the area.

The trend towards larger developments is also evident in recent land acquisitions, including the successful collective sale of Loyang Valley, reflecting developers' continued willingness to undertake sizeable redevelopment projects despite higher capital commitments and longer development timelines. At the same time, buyer interest in upcoming mega developments, including Thomson Reserve, remains encouraging, suggesting continued market acceptance of larger-scale residential communities.

June 2026 Developer Sales Report: Stable Market Fundamentals Support Growth Outlook

Singapore's primary residential market experienced a temporary slowdown in June 2026, with developers selling 156 new private homes (excluding Executive Condominiums), down from 447 units in May. The decline was largely anticipated, reflecting the seasonal effect of the June school holidays and the absence of any new project launches during the month. Rather than signalling weaker market conditions, the slowdown highlights the launch-driven nature of Singapore's primary residential market, where transaction volumes are closely tied to the availability of new supply.

Among all projects, including Executive Condominiums, Coastal Cabana emerged as the best-selling development, recording 21 units sold. The project continues to benefit from being launched under the previous Executive Condominium framework, allowing eligible buyers to purchase remaining units under earlier regulations. Combined with its attractive location, strong connectivity and competitive pricing, the development has maintained healthy sales momentum. Other top-performing projects included Hudson Place Residences, Chuan Park, The Continuum and Union Square Residences.

Looking ahead, market activity is expected to recover as several major launches enter the market. Lentor Gardens Residences and Dunearn House are expected to provide an early indication of buyer sentiment following June's quieter market, while Thomson Reserve, with over 1,200 units, is likely to become one of the most significant launches in the second half of 2026, addressing pent-up demand within the Rest of Central Region (RCR). Additional launches, including Lucerne Grand and future developments at Chuan Grove and Holland Link, are expected to further strengthen market activity.

Singapore CCR Luxury Homes See Strong Sales Recovery in 1H2026

Singapore’s luxury residential market in the Core Central Region (CCR) remained resilient during the first half of 2026, although price growth moderated as the market transitioned towards a healthier balance between supply and demand. Based on URA flash estimates, the non-landed private residential price index in the CCR increased by an estimated 2.6% in 1H2026, compared with 3.8% in 1H2025. While capital appreciation eased, the continued increase reflects sustained confidence in Singapore’s prime residential market amid expanding supply and evolving buyer preferences. 

A key development during the period was the significant revival in new project launches. Approximately 701 units were launched in the CCR, representing the strongest half-year launch pipeline since 1H2022 and a sharp increase from just 96 units in 1H2025. This recovery was primarily driven by River Modern and Newport Residences, reflecting the gradual rollout of projects from previously awarded Government Land Sales (GLS) sites and providing buyers with a broader selection of luxury homes. 

The stronger supply translated into a sharp rebound in new home sales. An estimated 761 new homes were sold in 1H2026, more than tripling the 236 units recorded a year earlier and marking the highest sales volume since 1H2023. River Modern led the market with 424 units sold at a median price of $3,229 psf, while Newport Residences achieved 198 sales at a median price of $3,070 psf. Together, these two projects accounted for about 81.7% of all new CCR home sales, highlighting their significant contribution to market recovery. 

Looking ahead, the luxury residential market is expected to remain active in the second half of 2026 with upcoming launches such as Dunearn House, Amberwood at Holland, and The Serra Residences. Supported by a healthy pipeline of new supply, resilient domestic demand, and Singapore’s reputation as a global financial centre and safe-haven destination, the CCR market is expected to maintain stable transaction activity while continuing its transition towards more sustainable long-term growth.
