In May, the Housing and Development Board<\/a> (HDB<\/a>) resale market sustained its growth in both prices and volumes, continuing its rebound from the previous month’s recovery after two months of decline.<\/p>\n

According to flash estimates from SRX and 99.co released on Wednesday (June 5), resale prices increased by 0.3 percent month-on-month. This growth was driven by a 1.1 percent rise in non-mature estate resale prices, which was slightly offset by a 0.3 percent decrease in mature estate prices.<\/p>\n

Eugene Lim, key executive officer of ERA Singapore, pointed out a shortage of inventory in mature estates, making them highly sought after. With prices rising in these areas, “we noticed some buyers turning to non-mature estates that are well-supported by amenities, schools, and transport hubs. Sixty-eight percent of five-room or larger flats were transacted in non-mature estates,” noted Lim.<\/p>\n

Price changes varied by room type, with three-room and four-room flats increasing by 0.1 percent, five-room flats surging by 1.6 percent, and executive flats experiencing a 1.1 percent drop from April 2024 levels.<\/p>\n

Year-on-year, overall prices rose by 6 percent, with mature and non-mature estate prices growing by 4.8 percent and 6.5 percent, respectively. Five-room flats led the yearly increase with a 6.7 percent rise, followed by four-room flats (6.4 percent), three-room units (5.3 percent), and executive flats (3.9 percent).<\/p>\n

In May 2024, 2,513 HDB<\/a> resale flats were sold, marking a 5.3 percent increase from the previous month and an 11.2 percent rise from May 2023. Four-room units accounted for the largest share of transactions at 43.1 percent, followed by three-room (26.9 percent), five-room (22.8 percent), and executive flats (7.2 percent).<\/p>\n

Non-mature estates contributed 59.1 percent of the resale volume, with the remaining 40.9 percent from mature estates. PropNex<\/a> head of research and content Wong Siew Ying expects demand for resale flats to remain stable as former private homeowners return to the market after serving the 15-month wait-out period. This trend is also supported by buyers with pressing housing needs and those preferring central and attractive locations without the tighter conditions of Plus and Prime flats.<\/p>\n

However, Mark Yip, chief executive of Huttons Asia, anticipates a slight dip in transactions in June due to the school holidays and upcoming Build-To-Order launches. He forecasts that HDB<\/a> resale volumes will range between 26,000 and 28,000 flats for 2024, with prices growing by more than 5 percent, surpassing the 4.9 percent increase in 2023.<\/p>\n

In May 2024, 74 resale flats were sold for at least S$1 million, up from 64 units in the previous month, making up 2.9 percent of total resale volumes. The highest price was for a five-room flat on Cantonment Road, sold for nearly S$1.52 million, identified as a unit at The Pinnacle@Duxton, located on the 37th to 39th floors with a remaining lease of over 85 years. This transaction is noted as an all-time high for the development.<\/p>\n

In non-mature estates, an executive apartment on Hougang Avenue 6 recorded the top resale transaction value at S$1.11 million. Kallang Whampoa had the most million-dollar resale flat transactions in May with 13 units sold, followed by Bukit Merah (12 units) and Toa Payoh<\/a> (eight units).<\/p>\n
