New launches look like the smarter buy, but the data says otherwise. Over 30 years, resale homes returned 3.7% a year versus just 2.7% for new launches.

New launches also carry a bigger downside, especially in the Core Central Region. 28% of new CCR sales made losses, versus 14.9% for resales — some new launches lost over 35%. Size changes the math: big leasehold units over 1,500 sq ft now favor new sale.

But for 700 to 1,000 sq ft units, resale still wins by up to 12.4 points.

New launches still win on fresh finishes and easier cash flow during construction. So which fits your plan? Tell me your budget below.

A couple making $600K a year owns a $3M landed home and a condo — so why are they stuck? They floated three options: decouple, keep renting out both, or buy near the school.

None was the best move. Clydeswood only sees one or two resales a year — too thin to trust for pricing or rental.

Decoupling only gets him to about $3.78M on his own — still short of their $4 to $5M target. Springside Walk grew just 4.32% a year — slower than freehold landed homes nearby at 5.28%. Keep both and rent, and the yields still leave just $4,785 a month of real breathing room.

Our strongest pick: sell both, then buy two fresh replacements that actually fit your family now.

One Bedok plot just smashed a Singapore land price record. CapitaLand, UOL and SingLand bid $1.43 billion — that's $1,537 psf ppr. That beat Bayshore's record of $1,388 psf ppr for OCR land, by a lot. But here's the catch — this bid blew past everyone else's number. The other three bids clustered between just $1,310 and $1,350 psf ppr. Why? Bedok has 275,000 residents and hasn't seen a big launch in 15 years. Analysts now expect prices here between $2,850 and $3,200 psf. If you're eyeing a Bedok upgrade, this record bid should worry you. Comment BEDOK for my take.

If your morning commute drains your energy, this changes everything.

At Thomson Reserve in District 20, you get a direct two-minute sheltered walk straight into Upper Thomson MRT.

Rain or shine, you step out of your home and onto the Thomson-East Coast Line without opening an umbrella.

You are also just one stop from the Circle Line at Caldecott, making travel across Singapore effortless. I think this seamless, sheltered MRT connection makes Thomson Reserve one of the most practical launches this year.

Two kids, one budget — bigger flat far out, or a smaller one right in town? For families with two kids, space wins. A bigger home further out often beats a smaller one downtown. But squeeze everyone into one roof, and you trade privacy for closeness — that's the real catch. Three ways to stay close to parents: 3Gen flats, nearby separate units, or the Proximity Housing Grant. Here's the real secret: stop chasing the 'best' property. Just match the home to what you can actually afford. Inherit an HDB while owning private property? No ABSD — but it still counts toward your property limit. No home checks every box. Know your must haves first, and the right choice gets a lot clearer.

District 20 hasn't seen a new launch in 8 years — until now. Thomson Reserve is stepping in with 1,268 units and over 80 facilities across six towers. Mega developments are rare — only 23 projects in Singapore have ever hit 1,000 units.

Only two recent launches crossed 1,000 units — Grand Dunman and Parktown Residence, both over 90% sold. With more land, mega projects fit in rare extras — like six pools and a full tennis court. JadeScape, D20's last mega launch in 2018, has climbed about 40% in resale price since.

Curious how Thomson Reserve compares? Comment PRICE and I'll send you the full breakdown.

A Pinnacle@Duxton flat just sold for S$1.72 million. It's a 1,152 sqft corner unit — just S$8,000 shy of Singapore's HDB record. This record has climbed twice in four months: S$1.63M, then S$1.701M, now S$1.72M. Its stack faces east — city views with zero direct afternoon sun. Almost 30 buyers viewed this flat in a single three hour session. The original owners could walk away with a gross gain near S$1.32 million. Think your HDB could be next? Comment your block and I'll check.

A four bedder just sold for $2,093 psf — Terra Hill's lowest ever. The unit is 1,539 sqft, on the fifth floor, sold by the developer for $3.22 million. That's below its old floor of $2,233 psf, set back in February 2023. Meanwhile, Goldenhill Park Condominium just smashed its own record at $2,665 psf. A three bedder there fetched $3.5 million — beating Aspen Heights' $2,591 psf high. Aspen Heights sits along River Valley Road, minutes from Orchard and Fort Canning. Which project's next — comment your guess and I'll track it for you.

A Bedok land bid just hit S$1,537 psf ppr — a record. A UOL, CapitaLand and SingLand consortium beat out three rivals for it. Their S$1.425 billion bid crushed second place's S$1.252 billion offer. The site could bring around 1,010 new homes right by Bedok MRT. Bedok Residences launched in 2011 at S$1,300 psf, now resells at S$1,757 psf. Analysts expect this new project to sell from around S$2,900 to S$3,000 psf. Would you pay record prices to live in Bedok? Tell me below.
