Private home sales fall 47.27% to 657 in September

Blame it on the lack of new project launches.

The number of private homes sold fell 47.27% from 1,246 units in August to 657 units in September 2017, according to preliminary data from the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA).

On a yearly basis, the figure is higher than the 509 units sold in September 2016. The figure excluded executive condominiums (EC).

Parc Life at Sembawang Crescent sold 48 units of ECs, the highest number for the month, for a median price of $795 psf.

ERA Realty key executive officer Eugene Lim commented, “The main reason for the large decrease was the absence of new project launches in September; Le Quest in Bukit Batok was launched in August, where 286 units were sold.”

“Also, a large part of the Hungry Ghost Month was in September; and this could have somewhat affected buying decisions,” she added.

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.
