🔥 $1.1 MILLION for a 5-room HDB at Jalan Membina 🤯

A 5-room flat in Bukit Merah just sold for $1.1M ($929 psf) — and it’s only around 76 years lease left

📍 Prime location perks:
• Walking distance to Tiong Bahru MRT
• Near mall, market & central area convenience
• Strong demand in mature estate

Despite the million-dollar price tag, it is still significantly lower than the record-high of $1.649 million.

🚨 $516,000 LOSS in Tanjong Pagar condo 😳

A unit at Altez just sold at a half-million dollar loss — and this isn’t even the worst case in the project… some losses hit over $1.2M 🤯

💡 Reality check:
Prime location ≠ guaranteed profit anymore

📉 What this shows:
• Buying at peak = high risk
• CCR market still facing pressure
• Entry price is EVERYTHING

🔥 But flip the angle…
For today’s buyers, this could be an opportunity to enter at a better price

So far, the 99-year leasehold condo has chalked up two losses exceeding $1 million.

HDB Resale Slows — Sellers Facing a Reality Check

Resale activity has cooled noticeably in recent months. 📉

With more BTO launches and a rising number of MOP flats entering the market, buyers now have more options — and more bargaining power. 🏠

Some sellers are finding it harder to secure viewings, especially if pricing is based on 2023 peak levels.

This isn’t a crash.
But it’s no longer a strong seller’s market either.

In today’s climate:
✔ Buyers compare more
✔ Negotiations are tougher
✔ Realistic pricing wins
