Norwood Grand and Meyer Blue Lead October 2024 Property Market Surge

In October 2024, developer sales experienced a robust increase, with 738 units (excluding ECs) sold, an 84% surge from September’s 401 units. This growth was largely attributed to the launches of Norwood Grand and Meyer Blue, which accounted for over half of the sales at 56.4%. Norwood Grand emerged as the top seller with 292 units transacted at a median price of $2,081 psf, benefiting from its strategic location near Woodlands South MRT and proximity to schools and amenities. Meyer Blue followed with 124 units sold at a median price of $3,240 psf, appealing to buyers with its prime location in the Rest of Central Region (RCR) and freehold status.

Other notable projects included Pinetree Hill and Hillock Green, with steady sales across different price segments. The data reveals strong local demand, with Singaporeans making up 88.5% of total transactions. Purchases by Singapore Permanent Residents (PRs) and foreigners increased, with PRs accounting for 8.8% of sales and foreigners contributing 2.7%. Foreign buyers showed a slight rebound, marking their highest monthly purchases since May 2023.

November is set to be a dynamic month, with six new launches targeting diverse buyer needs, ranging from Chuan Park to Union Square Residences. This wave of launches aims to capture growing interest ahead of the year-end holiday season. Favourable interest rates, improved financing conditions, and strategic launch timings indicate a positive outlook for the final quarter.

This surge underscores the market's responsiveness to well-located and thoughtfully developed projects. Developers’ strategic timing, coupled with improved buyer confidence, reflects a vibrant property market poised for sustained momentum.
