HDB to launch 18,000 new flats in 2016 to meet surging demand

15,000 flats were launched in last year.

Homebuyers looking to buy a new HDB home this new year will have plenty of options, as national development minister Lawrence Wong announced that an influx of built-to-order HDB supply would greet them in 2016.

According to a blog post by Wong, while the flat supply would be increased to cater to demand stemming from policy changes, the long-term plan remains to keep supply sustainable.

These will be spread across a good variety of locations, so that homebuyers can be assured of flats for every budget and need.

Meanwhile, Wong says national development would keep a close eye on the market this year, adjusting its building programme when necessary.

“We will focus on making our housing policies more inclusive and build even better homes for all Singaporeans,” the blog post said.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.
The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.
If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
