A 0.6 PER CENT month-on-month increase in SRX Property's flash estimate for its resale price index for non-landed private homes in January has drawn varying views on the outlook for this market.

Savills Singapore research head Alan Cheong said it could suggest that 2016 is a year which captures the inflection point, price wise. However, ERA Realty key executive officer Eugene Lim argued that the overall price trend for the year is still downwards.
