Demand for new private homes has surged in recent years post-Covid 19, with many homebuyers snapping up projects despite relatively higher price premiums. However, prolonged elevated interest rates and the higher Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty (ABSD) introduced in April 2023 have resulted in waning demand, as evidenced by the slower pace of growth in overall private housing prices.
Nevertheless, with the government increasing the Government Land Sales supply for private housing to its highest since 2H2013, we can expect to see more new private homes launched in the coming months.
If you are on the market for a new private home, you may want to take note of these 10 upcoming condominiums, including executive condominium (EC) projects that are likely to be launched in the second half of 2024.
