    THERE was much energy and passion among panel members at the recently held BT Property Outlook 2024 Seminar. And the audience participation was great.

    However, amid all the buzz from the event, my key takeaway was that the Dragon Year could be boring for Singapore homes.

    Private home and Housing and Development Board (HDB) resale flat prices might be relatively stable in 2024, with prices possibly inching up in the low single digits.
