ANALYSTS expect the number of new private homes released for sale in 2022 to fall year-on-year, denting transaction volumes as some developers may delay launches in the wake of the cooling measures.

2022 will also see smaller scale launches and an absence of the mega projects wheeled out in 2021, such as Normanton Park which has sold about 1,450 of its 1,862 units this year.
