    The rental market will also drop. Cos many desperate buyers who cannot sell will turn to renting out their apts instead. So guess what happens when supply outstrips demand?

    I guess govt is concern that after so many cooling measures, BR still gotten such good response so better step in and stabilise the market...dont let it chiong further. ...Dont think they would want to purposely crash the property market..there are also alot of locals who already have vested interest in pte property...

    Mr B is preaching doomsday scenario, why would SG govt want that to happen???

    Cos the SG Govt sees the crash as the lesser of two evils

    No worries for HDB supply coz no HDB flat buyers will fall in the categories stipulated today... its the PC supply that will pose the core of the problem. However, I suspect developers and sellers alike, will tweak their expectations so supply will also come down accordingly.

    Remember the foreigners are deterred from buying. And even if they want to buy, OCR is cheaper.

    Govt merely want to curb surging property prices, as with all pass CMs. This is in anticipation of a bearish economy come 2012 so that property prices will not fall so much because it hasn't climbed so much. The higher you climb, the greater you fall!

    No buyers in sight? Then sellers will have to be more realistic and keep lowering their prices until buyers are again tempted to bite. IMHO, not too soon, or when prices are about 30% below current prices
