    as expected, among those who need to pay absd, the foreigners feel the pinch the least haha. $1.605m purchase, before $241k, now $321k. for 2nd time singaporean buyers, before $112k, after $193k. the same $80k is an increase of "only" 33% for the foreigner but for a 2nd time homebuyer, that's a 71% increase.

    What percentage difference do you see in terms of volume between Q2 to Q3 (current, post CM)? I reckon its a 30-40% drop after negating 1,000 units from the last min buying on the day of announcement.

    1. New Launch post CM will be price sensitive best time to buy.
    2. Due to additional 5% ABSD for developer, the new land and en bloc bidding price will be more sensitive.
    3. Construction cost will be reduce by using more sensitive material.
    4. Big name like WOHA will be more in the CCR than RCR or OCR.

    After sometime everyone will forget and chiong again just like the pricing since 2006.

    Anyone think can get even 2011 psf will be label crazy because the land price 965 psf ppr already more than the launch price 899psf.

    7 years ago, Singaporeans could still buy 2nd property without ABSD. Foreigners had to pay ABSD of 10%

    5 years ago, Singaporeans had to pay ABSD of 7% to buy 2nd property. Stated then in IRAS "These new ABSDs and loan rules are significant, but they are temporary."

    Today, Singaporeans buying 2nd property have to pay more than foreigners had to pay 7 years ago.

    Where are all these heading towards?

    a bit hard to tell as it depends on the timing of launches + the 7th month where developers refrain from launching.

    do u think it will average 600 units a month in 2019 for a total of 7200 units or more?

    properties are getting more and more expensive because of ABSD - Not True, it is because of land price.

    ABSD collect $$$ and make properties more expensive - Not True, it only make 2rd and 3th property owner pay more.

    ABSD is actually making properties cheaper, especially if you are buying first property.

    Volume will certainly drop as you probably second guessed. Main beneficiaries will be first time buyers who will enter market earlier than wait any longer since developers are luring them with modest price increase and even discounts. Another group will be those who resign to the fate the CMs is indeed a reality of today. What took them so long since 2013, I’m not sure. Forever waiting for durian to drop (actually a lot has and it’s given out for free today). Hehe

    This will cause developers to bid for land more cautiously for 2nd half of 2018. Which might mean a lower land price and potentially a lower launch price for end of 2019 to 2020 just in time for elections. Just like those land bids after the previous cm was introduced were cheaper. E.g. Santorini vs alps

    while i do agree that there may be more cautious bidding, i think it would be temporary too. the removal of en bloc supply means all the developers will again focus on GLS in future. i don't think it will be very much cheaper, nor will the launch prices (which would follow the market price of competing launches in 2019 and 2020).

    the cm does prevent prices from shooting up though.

    Maybe some new mass market launch may sell bare units as base price to lower selling price and costs. Flooring, doors and furnishings become optional extras.

    For those who wait maybe this is what they going to get.

    I guess The Tre Ver may be the last value for money project.

    Sometime it is good to know what you have miss rather than think what you have save.

    ABSD simply eats into your future gains, if you are an investor.

    On the other hand, it could also mean less competition for rental units in the future.

    If people only have 1 private property as the only property under their name, it is harder for them to rent out, unless they stay in parents' or spouse's home.

    For people who already own properties and pay ABSD just to be an investor, their costs will be much higher than those who did not have to pay ABSD.

    It's possible to see some rental recovery and growth for the way ahead.

    Yap, What the property "cooling measures" do is just like last time property price recession, developers change to cheap materials and worksmen (1 of the condo now having law suite with developer is a very good example).
    End up only somebody get a lot of $$$ into their pocket but doesn't achieve anything that they claimed they want to achieve.

    Yes, unless ABSD abolished when it is time to sell. But this will only happen when property market is bad.
