Same here…I find that rental at D9 & D10 has dropped significantly. More badly hit ones will be the bigger units and those developments next to construction site. Their asking rental can be same or even lower than a smaller unit in the same development if the block is nearer to the construction site.


For bigger and newer development, sometimes can see that their rent psf is about the same as the older development that maybe has more facilities. But the selling price hor can be a few hundred dollars more psf plus their higher (?) maintenance fee, it can easily push the return to below the 3% level.

Now I think buyers still waiting on the side line. Developers also not ready to lelong yet


The next blow will be when interest rate increases. More sellers selling, developers will become more realistic with prices too

Assuming a 99-yr HDB and 99-yr condo bought about the same time.


First 40 years, 99yr condo should appreciate faster than HDB. But after certain years, with a short remaining lease, the 99-yr condo prices will depreciate to zero. HDB will never depreciate to zero.

If both kena enbloc, then definitely the private will earn more.

Thanks for your reply

Can someone share your views, is it true private condo (99-years) will have a better capital gain as compared to a 99-year HDB flat?

Not sure if am answering your qn;
a 1st hand 5rm hdb flat bought in say late 1990s cost abt 200k, is probably worth 500k now. So the gain is > than 100%.
Can a private condo also gain such?

Thank you
So it sounds like is worth to keep the HDB afterall.

Is there any 99-yr condo that is over 40 years at the moment? :scratchhead:
