then when filter search of HDB apts asking for $1m or more, there are actually already 38 asking for that kinda of price, upper-scale of the price bar and awaiting to hit the threshold... will that happen, depends on masses support and garman land sales prices.

That is a fallacy. When property prices drop, no matter which corner you are in, it will still drop. I remember clearly 1998, 2003, 2008. The number looks in sequence though. 98, 03, 08, 13 ???

the circumstances to each crisis are starkly different, and so is their fallout. there's no cheap $ being printed after the 97 Asian crisis or 03 SARs.

now, cheap $ has flooded the market and inflationary pressures permeates every market globally. coupled with a low-interest rate environment, all these are just stoking the flames of inflation. where else to park $ in? gold? soft commodities? property?

In my honest opinion...back then people got no MONEY..they borrow and BUY...today its a TOTALLY different ball game people are sitting on hordes of cash...local/pr/foreigners...ALL WAITING to pounce in...thanks or NO thanks to our stable govt/economy and liberal immigration policies....my take is that if u need or want to buy JUST buy....if u find something u like....the BOAT is never coming back empty for you to board...it may come back half or three-quarter full....SELAMAT HARI RAYA....:D

True. There is never a good or bad time to buy properties. Only got good and bad time to sell.

Where got NEVER crash wan?
In every property cycle there is always peak n trough!
As long as u have planned for the worst scenarios u will survive!
Heard that there is increasing number of people who hit 55 yrs of age n can't use their CPF to service loan as the withdrawal limit has reached, so gotta use cash.
This phenomenon will accelerate.
My gut feel is there will come a time where mass market will be " leilong leilong"

As I have said in my other thread... How can prices drop when you look at all the upcoming developments at jurong lake district, marina bay, one north, paya lebar, where to find so many people to work there?

One bug difference between Singapore market and other country... We are a city.... We can just opennthendoor tom immigration if we want to prevent prices from dropping....

We should be comparing Singapore to global cities, look at London, Paris, Sydney, see whether prices of these cities drop much in the past

Australia is in trouble partly because China is slowing down.
