Hi Phil,

1) According to past property price trends, it is obvious a private residence appreciated higher than the HDB flat.
2) Other than the man-made appreciation in the 2000+, where the supply of BTO was purposely maintaining at a lower number to inflate the resale HDB price.
3) During that period the appreciation of private resale and resale HDB was in equal percentage. However, the concept of $500K appreciation and $250K appreciation both equal at 10% is an entirely different concept.
4) $500k appreciation of 10% = $550, whereas $250k appreciation of 10% = $275k. So in long term let say a total appreciation of 2% per yr and hold it for 20 years. The number could be quite scary.
5) Don't forget the amount appreciate is accumulative, thus the final number for $500k and $250k will be $742.97k and $371.49k respectively.
6) Having said all the above, all valuation of resale is based on past transactions. In a small private development, it will face a higher risk than a bigger development of unable to maintain its appreciation when there are fire sales in the development.
7) Thus it is advisable to consult a professional before you bet your money on it.

Dear Buyer,
Private property has more potential given the same size and price as HDB. Why? Because, private property has no restrictions whereas, HDB has all kinds of restrictions for sale as well as rentals. Infact, there is one estate which has private and HDB estate in SG where the price differential is more than 200k for the same unit size. I think that is a CLASSIC example that answers your question.

Please call me.
Cheers!

Hi Phil,

This is very subjective. Even though in general, private property does tend to have better appreciation than HDB flats, we cannot simply says all private condos will appreciate better than all HDB flats. This is because, I personally have seen some HDB flats appreciates more than some private condos.

Perhaps you could share with me the locations of these properties, then we can have a more in-depth discussion on this matter?
