...that is, if u assume ur 800k value for a HDB will stay
When gov has a policy change, ur 800k can drop to 500k in 2 months! Ur loss will be 300k if we do mark to market!
This already happened before. In the early nineties ppl need to wait for 5 yrs for a new flat. Prime HDB EM in Bishan was calling 800k. HDB under pressure to deliver HDBs, so it built massively with oversuply in 3 yrs. Ghost town formed in jurong west. HDB resale px start to crumble down. The same Bishan 800k EM valuaiton became less than 500k! MBT kana questioned by opposition. S he started BTO program to make sure such. Ting will never happen in his tenure. Now KBW is doing a policy u turn. He is building massively ahead of demand. U really think this 800k HDB price will stay ? Only, I mean ONLY, the real crown jewels of HDB can sustain a high valuation. Like the PH of Duxton. Or the EM right at the door step of Bishan mrt/mall. Is yours really one of them ?
