DEVELOPERS in Singapore sold 745 private homes (excluding executive condominiums or ECs) in April 2016, down 11.6 per cent from the 843 private homes they moved in March 2016. Last month's figure is also down 36.2 per cent from the 1,167 units developers sold in April 2015.
These figures were released on Monday by the Urban Redevelopment Authority based on data submissions by developers.
