HDB resale-flat price index rises 0.1% in Q2 over Q1

FLASH estimates released by the Housing & Development Board (HDB) on Friday showed that its resale-flat price index inched up 0.1 per cent in the second quarter of this year over the previous quarter. This contrasts with a 0.1 per cent quarter-on-quarter dip in the index in Q1 this year.

The index for the full quarter and more detailed public housing data for the second quarter will be released on July 22.

In August this year, the HDB will offer about 5,000 Build-To-Order (BTO) flats in Hougang, Sembawang, Tampines and Yishun. More information on the August 2016 BTO exercise is available on the HDB InfoWEB.
