RESALE prices of Housing and Development Board (HDB) flats crawled slightly higher last month as price increases in smaller units offset the declines in larger ones, going by the latest data from the Singapore Real Estate Exchange (SRX).
But transaction volumes staged a strong rebound as buyers returned to the resale market after the Chinese New Year lull.
Flash estimates by SRX showed HDB resale prices edged up 0.3 per cent in March from a month ago. Prices for three- and four-room units rose by 0.5 per cent and 0.8 per cent, respectively as more buyers sought units with smaller quantums, given the loan cap under the Mortgage Servicing Ratio (MSR).
