It rose 1.8% QoQ.

HDB resale prices have risen 1.8% QoQ to $183.7 in 1Q24.

In 4Q23, resale prices only rose 1.1%.

“Taken together, the 2.9% increase over 4th Quarter 2023 and 1st Quarter 2024 is close to the total increase of 2.8% over 2nd Quarter and 3rd Quarter of 2023,” the Housing and Development Board (HDB) said.

Apart from prices, resale transactions also grew in 1Q24, rising by 8.0% YoY to 7,068 cases. On a QoQ comparison, resale transactions rose by 1.3%.

“On the whole, the HDB resale market is showing signs of stabilising, as HDB resale prices rose by 4.9% in 2023, less than half of the 10.4% increase in 2022, and the 12.7% increase in 2021,” the HDB said.

“The economic outlook is subject to uncertainties, particularly stemming from ongoing geopolitical conflicts, which could precipitate negative global supply and demand shocks. Domestic mortgage rates are expected to remain at levels that are elevated relative to the low levels seen over the past decade. As such, households should continue to exercise financial prudence in their flat purchases,” the HDB added.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
