HDB puts 8,748 flats up for grabs

4,802 of which are BTO ones.

The Housing Development and Development Board launched 8,748 flats under the May 2017 Build-To-Order (BTO) and Sale of Balance Flats (SBF) exercise.

These comprise 4,802 BTO units and 3,946 SBF units across 25 towns and estates.

The number of BTO flats available for sale brings the total number of BTO flats offered this year to 8,858 units.

"Together with the 3,946 balance flats on offer, HDB has launched a total of 12,804 flats for sale in the first half of 2017 to meet the housing needs of Singaporeans," HDB said.

The BTO flats on offer are spread across six projects. Three are in the non-mature towns of Woodlands and Yishun, while another three are in the mature towns/ estates of Bidadari (Toa Payoh) and Geylang.

HDB said eligible first-timer families can enjoy up to $80,000 of housing grants, comprising the Additional CPF Housing Grant (AHG) and the Special CPF Housing Grant (SHG).

"With these grants, buyers of 2-room Flexi, 3-room, 4-room and 5-room flats could pay as little as $4,000, $70,000, $176,000, and $307,000, respectively," HDB said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
