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.

Hougang Central GLS Attracts Top Bid of $1,179 psf ppr

The tender for the Hougang Avenue 10 / Hougang Central GLS site attracted sustained developer interest despite a more measured bidding environment. The mixed use site, which allows for a residential and commercial development integrated with a bus interchange, drew 3 bidders, reflecting selective yet committed participation for large scale integrated developments. This level of interest mirrors the earlier Chencharu Close tender, suggesting that developers remain focused on quality and strategic positioning rather than volume driven bidding 

The top bid of $1.50 billion was submitted by Horizon Residential Pte. Ltd. under UOL together with Horizon Commercial Trustee Pte. Ltd. under CapitaLand, translating to $1,179 psf ppr. This offer narrowly edged out the second highest bid by just 2.1 percent, highlighting strong conviction and disciplined pricing among the top contenders. The close spread between bids indicates that developers share a broadly aligned view on the underlying value of this site, particularly given its scale, commercial component, and transport integration.

The relatively limited number of bidders should be viewed in the context of the project’s size and complexity. Large integrated developments require strong balance sheets, operational expertise, and long term capital commitment. As such, participation tends to be concentrated among developers with proven mixed use experience. The high absolute bid values suggest that participating developers are taking a long term view of Hougang Central’s role as a town centre anchor that can support both residential demand and sustained retail activity over time.

From a locational perspective, the site benefits from immediate adjacency to Hougang MRT station, which supports strong and consistent footfall throughout the day. This advantage is expected to strengthen further when Hougang becomes an interchange with the completion of the new line around 2030. The surrounding mature HDB catchment provides a ready residential base that enhances the commercial viability of the development, while the integrated nature of the project appeals to both homeowners and investors seeking convenience and accessibility.

Looking ahead, broader infrastructure and planning initiatives under the Master Plan 2025 further reinforce the site’s appeal. Improved connectivity from the Cross Island Line, planned upgrades to Hougang Sport Centre, proximity to schools and healthcare facilities, and access to recreational spaces collectively enhance liveability and long term value.

Private New Home Sales in November 2025 Anchored by The Sen

Private new home sales in November 2025 moderated from the exceptionally strong performance seen in October, largely due to the absence of major new launches rather than a deterioration in underlying demand. Developer sales excluding executive condominiums reached 325 units, easing from 2,424 units in October. This moderation followed a sharp contrast in launch volumes, as October benefited from the release of 2,233 units, while November saw only 347 units launched, all of which came exclusively from a single project, The Sen.

Despite the quieter month, buyer activity remained well supported. The Rest of Central Region emerged as the dominant contributor, accounting for 66.2 percent of all private new home sales. This strong showing was directly linked to the launch of The Sen, which anchored market activity and became the focal point for buyers seeking well located city fringe homes. The Outside Central Region contributed 24.6 percent of sales, reflecting continued interest from buyers prioritising affordability and family sized layouts in suburban locations. 

At the project level, The Sen was the clear standout, achieving 77 units sold and leading the sales chart by a wide margin. As the final non landed private residential launch of 2025, it attracted sustained interest from both owner occupiers and investors, especially in a month with no competing new projects. Other RCR developments also recorded steady transactions. The Continuum and Bloomsbury Residences each sold 22 units, supported by their city fringe positioning. Overall, November’s sales distribution highlighted how buyers gravitated toward projects that offered either fresh market visibility or compelling value propositions when supply was limited 

On a year-to-date basis, new home sales excluding executive condominiums have shown a strong and sustained rebound in 2025. With November figures included, total developer sales reached 10,624 units in the first 11 months of the year.

Key Trends Shaping the HDB Resale Market in 2026

The 2026 HDB resale market is poised for a more balanced and sustainable year, shaped primarily by a strong uplift in resale supply and steady underlying demand. As 2025 draws to a close, resale activity has moderated, influenced by expanded new flat launches and a much smaller cohort of flats reaching Minimum Occupation Period in 2025. Based on data from HDB and data.gov.sg, the first 11 months of 2025 recorded about 23,924 resale transactions, reflecting a 10.2 percent moderation compared to the same period in 2024.

The new flat supply landscape in 2025 played a significant role in shaping buyer behaviour. BTO launches rose slightly year on year, while Sale of Balance Flats supply expanded sharply to 10,252 units due to two SBF exercises conducted within the year. Standard flats made up the bulk of the BTO supply at 50.6 percent, underscoring HDB’s continued focus on broad accessibility. Prime and Plus flats, which accounted for 36.5 percent and 12.9 percent respectively, continued to attract households drawn to central locations and long term value potential, even as clawback rates were progressively refined. 

Demand fundamentals remain resilient as household formation stays steady and policy enhancements support right sizing among seniors. Findings from HDB’s latest Sample Household Survey also show more young families living near parents, boosting demand in established towns. Taken together, 2026 is expected to be a year of healthier balance, steady performance, and moderated price growth anchored by a significantly larger supply pipeline and stable demographic needs.
