Property Insight

Modest Growth in New Home Sales

In June 2024, new home sales in Singapore showed a modest growth of 2.2% month-over-month, with 228 units sold, up from 223 in May. The majority of these sales occurred in the Outside Central Region (OCR), which accounted for 57.9% of the total sales. Notable developments contributing to this increase included The Lakegarden Residences, The Botany at Dairy Farm, Hillhaven, Lentor Hills Residences, and Hillock Green. The Rest of Central Region (RCR) and Core Central Region (CCR) followed, contributing 31.1% and 11.0% to the total sales, respectively.

Increased Interest in RCR

The RCR segment saw a significant 34.0% increase in sales from May to June, rising from 53 to 71 units. This growth was driven by developments such as Tembusu Grand, Pinetree Hill, The Continuum, The Landmark, and Grand Dunman. The limited new launches and smaller-sized developments in the first half of 2024 helped sustain interest in these properties, showcasing their lasting appeal.

Best-Selling Projects

The best-selling projects in June highlighted the competitive clustering effect, where developments launched in close proximity can boost each other's sales. The Lakegarden Residences led the sales with 23 units at a median price of $2,119 per square foot (psf). Other top performers included The Botany at Dairy Farm (21 units at $1,979 psf), Hillhaven (18 units at $2,124 psf), and Lentor Hills Residences (14 units at $2,104 psf). This phenomenon is similar to the retail strategy where stores like Watsons and Guardian are located near each other to maximize foot traffic.

Luxury Condo Sales in CCR

Luxury condominium sales in the CCR remained robust, with a notable transaction involving a 4-bedroom unit at Midtown Modern, which sold for $6.7 million ($3,698 psf). The first half of 2024 saw seven new launch condominiums surpass the $10 million mark, consistent with the same period in 2023. Developments such as Skywaters Residences, 32 Gilstead, and Watten House led these high-value transactions, reflecting sustained interest in luxury real estate driven by prime locations, exceptional design, and top-tier amenities.

Upcoming Launches

The second half of 2024 is expected to see a resurgence in market interest with several new property launches. These include Emerald of Katong, The Chuan Park, One Sophia, and Aurea. These fresh offerings are anticipated to generate significant interest due to their unique characteristics and prime locations, rejuvenating the real estate scene after a period of limited new launches.

Conclusion

June 2024's developer sales insights highlight a steady growth in new home sales, driven primarily by the OCR segment. The RCR showed significant sales growth due to sustained interest in key developments. The luxury segment in the CCR continued to attract high-value transactions, reflecting the enduring appeal of prime properties. Looking ahead, the market is poised for rejuvenation with several exciting new launches anticipated in the second half of 2024. Developers and buyers alike can leverage strategic location and timing to capitalize on market dynamics and growth opportunities.

Developer Sales Jump to 1,937 Units in March 2026 on Surge in New Launches

Developer sales staged a strong recovery in March 2026, with a total of 1,937 units sold including Executive Condominiums (ECs), a significant increase from the 266 units transacted in February. This marks the first time this year that monthly sales have crossed the 1,000-unit threshold, signalling a meaningful pickup in primary market activity following the seasonal lull during the Chinese New Year period.

The rebound in sales was largely driven by a corresponding increase in new project launches. Developers released 1,615 units in March, a substantial rise from the limited supply seen in February. Key projects such as Pinery Residences, Rivelle Tampines and River Modern were major contributors, collectively accounting for about 76.9% of total transactions. This highlights a clear trend in the current market environment where buyer demand remains intact, but is closely tied to the timing, quality and positioning of new launches.

The strong performance of these projects reflects how well calibrated offerings continue to resonate with buyers. In particular, Pinery Residences and Rivelle Tampines each recorded over 500 units sold, underscoring the continued strength of demand in the Outside Central Region (OCR), where pricing remains relatively accessible and is supported by first time buyers and upgraders. At the same time, River Modern’s robust take up, with 416 units sold at a median price of about $3,220 psf, points to sustained interest within the Core Central Region (CCR). 

Looking ahead, the momentum observed in March is expected to carry into the coming months, supported by a pipeline of upcoming launches such as Vela Bay and Tengah Garden Residences. As more projects enter the market across both established and emerging precincts, transaction volumes are likely to remain supported by genuine demand, albeit at a more calibrated pace.

Hoi Hup Tops Miltonia Close EC Site at $732 psf ppr

The tender for the Executive Condominium site at Miltonia Close has concluded with a total of 3 bidders, with Hoi Hup Realty Pte Ltd emerging as the top bidder with an offer of $340.9 million, translating to $732 psf ppr. While the number of bidders is more selective compared to some earlier tenders, it continues to reflect steady developer interest in well located EC sites, particularly within established residential areas.

The top bid is about 7.8% lower than the recently awarded Woodlands Drive 17 GLS site, which achieved $794 psf ppr. Rather than signalling a pullback, this difference points towards a more measured and calibrated approach by developers. With a growing pipeline of EC sites in the North, including parcels in Woodlands, Sembawang, Canberra Drive and Sembawang Drive, developers are likely pacing their land acquisitions more carefully. This reflects a more forward looking strategy, where developers are balancing immediate opportunities with the need to remain competitive within an expanding supply landscape. 

At the same time, the Miltonia Close site presents a compelling proposition from a locational and lifestyle perspective. Situated near Lower Seletar Reservoir and within a quieter residential enclave, the site is well positioned to appeal to buyers who prioritise a more tranquil and nature oriented living environment. This suggests that the future development may attract a more defined buyer profile, particularly families and genuine owner occupiers, rather than those driven primarily by proximity to MRT connectivity or commercial nodes.

From a broader market perspective, the EC segment continues to be supported by a stable base of upgrader demand, especially from HDB households seeking to transition into private housing in a more accessible manner. This underlying demand has remained resilient, as seen in recent launches such as Rivelle Tampines, which recorded strong take up rates when projects are well positioned in terms of pricing and attributes.

Looking ahead, the EC market is entering a phase of greater supply visibility, following the ramp up in Government Land Sales supply. This is a positive development for the market, as it supports a more balanced and sustainable environment. With a more consistent pipeline of projects, price movements are likely to become more measured and closely aligned with underlying demand fundamentals, rather than being driven by supply constraints.

Overall, the tender outcome reflects a market that is evolving in a more balanced and sustainable manner. While developers remain active, there is a greater emphasis on discipline, positioning and long term planning. At the same time, demand fundamentals for ECs remain intact, supporting the outlook for steady absorption in well located and appropriately priced developments such as Miltonia Close.

Kallang Close GLS Draws 4 Bidders with Top Bid of $1,415 psf ppr

The Government Land Sales tender for the Kallang Close site has closed with Frasers Property and Mitsubishi Estate (via MJR Investment) emerging as the top bidder at $1,415 psf ppr, narrowly ahead of City Developments Limited. The relatively tight spread between bids reflects a broadly aligned view among developers on the site’s underlying value and long-term potential. In total, the site attracted 4 bidders, with the outcome broadly in line with recent GLS tenders, including the Tanjong Rhu site which was awarded at $1,455 psf ppr. 

The results point to continued confidence in well-located city fringe sites, although developers remain measured in their bidding approach. The ongoing ramp-up in the GLS programme has contributed to a more visible supply pipeline, allowing developers to adopt a more disciplined stance without the need to bid aggressively for individual sites.

At the same time, rising construction costs driven by geopolitical developments, particularly increases in diesel and bitumen, are beginning to influence development considerations. This has likely been factored into bids, especially for sites like Kallang Close which come with additional infrastructure and placemaking requirements. The presence of joint venture participation also reflects a growing trend of developers partnering to manage costs and risks more effectively. 

Looking ahead, the site is expected to yield about 470 residential units and could tap into underlying demand in the Kallang and Boon Keng area, where new private housing supply has been relatively limited. Over time, the development may contribute to the transformation of the Kallang River corridor into a more vibrant waterfront residential cluster.
