If you've recently started viewing properties, or are putting yours on the market, you may have noticed something a little different about the process.

As of 23th May, the data confirms that Singapore's en bloc collective sale market is shifting toward smaller, quantum-friendly plots. URA data indicates that developers remain cautious of high replacement costs and strict ABSD deadlines, making boutique collective sales the preferred target for 2026 land replenishment.

As of 22th May, the data confirms that upcoming Executive Condominium (EC) launches in 2026 are drawing massive interest from HDB upgraders. With private condo prices remaining high, these new EC projects offer the "sandwich class" an affordable entry into private living with strong potential for long-term capital appreciation.

As of May 2026, the data confirms that Singapore's 3-month SORA is projected to stay low, hovering between 1.0% and 1.5% throughout 2026. This lower interest rate environment reduces monthly mortgage payments, making floating-rate home loans highly attractive for new property buyers.

As of 20th May, the data confirms that around half of the 6,900 flats in the June 2026 BTO launch fall under the Plus or Prime categories. This includes high-demand projects in Bishan, Bukit Merah, and Ang Mo Kio, which come with tighter resale rules.

As of 20th May, the data confirms the June 2026 HDB BTO launch will offer around 6,900 flats across seven projects. Locations include Ang Mo Kio, Bishan, Bukit Merah, Sembawang, and Woodlands. Buyers must submit their application documents by 15 May 2026.

As of May 8th 2026, the data confirms that the URA private residential rental index declined by 1.2% in Q1 2026. This downward trend is driven by a surge in newly completed condominium projects, giving tenants more negotiating power and driving down asking rents.

As of May 7th 2026, the data confirms a massive supply wave hitting the market, with an estimated 13,480 HDB flats reaching their 5-year Minimum Occupation Period (MOP) in 2026. This near-doubling of supply from 2025 is expected to ease upward pressure on resale prices.

As of May 6th 2026, the data confirms a strong supply wave with 4,575 private residential units tendered via the URA 1H 2026 GLS Confirmed List. This is 50% above the 10-year average, aiming to stabilize the housing market and provide more options for buyers.

As of May 6th2026, the data confirms that the HDB Resale Price Index dropped by 0.1% in Q1 2026. This is the first quarterly decline since 2019, signaling a cooling public housing market as buyer urgency eases and more flats reach their MOP.
