Singapore is moving forward with a plan to release the most private housing supply since 2013 even as interest from developers cools.
The government plans to supply land that will potentially yield 11,110 private residential units this year, the Ministry of National Development said in a statement. While price momentum is easing, the ministry said it plans to continue to cater to housing demand.
Developers have grown more cautious about tackling new projects as the city-state’s property market cools due to higher interest rates and lacklustre demand from wealthy foreigners. A housing site last week attracted no bids from developers, a first in more than 20 years, while earlier this year the government rejected the sole bid for a prime state land parcel judged to be too low.
