Resale prices for Housing Board flats climbed for the fifth consecutive quarter, though the volume of transactions were hit by tightened Covid-19 measures.
Property analysts expect that prices are likely to rise further, with demand outstripping supply in part due to delays in completion for new HDB flats.
In the second quarter of this year, resale prices rose 3 per cent over the previous three months, matching the increase seen in the first quarter, according to data released by the HDB on Friday (July 23). The figure is higher than HDB’s initial estimate of a 2.8 per cent rise made three weeks ago.

SINGAPORE: Singapore s private home prices rose 0.9 per cent in the second quarter from the previous three months, flash estimates released by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) showed on Thursday (Jul 1).
The increase slowed from the two-and-a-half-year high pace in the first quarter, when prices rose by 3.3 per cent. However, it still marked the fifth consecutive quarterly rise, and came despite Singapore reimposing some COVID-19 curbs to combat a spike in community infections in mid-May.
