How much were buyers willing to pay?

Singapore saw a jump in developer volumes last month, after two new private residential launches which attracted swarms of interested buyers.

According to a report by OrangeTee Research, new developer sales recorded 372 sales transactions (private residential not including EC) in January, up from 230 transactions in December. This represents a m-o-m jump of 62%.
