They wudn b happier to charge lower Big Grin
The price will never come down once they charge higher.
the hawker has a heart.
now with high inflation things will get worse. some is even saying is there a possibility of hyper inflation.
hdb going for 1.4m already. think it may be nearer then we think.
did the foreign pr drive up the cost of flats. 1m flats may not be enough cause all want new and not resale . bto is a bad idea as it pushes delivery too far down the time line.
imagine a couple of 28 years old decided to get marry . go apply for hdb. first the may one even if selected can only be build by 2027. that is 5 years away. by then the couple is 32 yo.
in reality many cannot get one until after many round. current building is less then 20k units.
it is still better to do like the past to build first and ballot along the way so that delivery is 1-2 years. not 5 years. if one say o it is for better planning. then i asked is the building department to serve the people need or to make their job safe and easy with no risk of hdb being stuck?
the other wrong decision if making resale flat buyer to have same min stay period of 5 years. while that curb demand it also curb supply. if we take 24k units change hand each year. that will be 120k units removed from the for sale unit. that is a direct cause of high price.
do more selective enbloc and build more new flats. more people want new flats. then resale flat. young citizen should have at least a chance to have a new flat. the old flat jsut tear down and rebuild. cost is only that of rebuilding. but it will make more citizen feel at home in singapore. not one where hdb also cannot get new one. it was normal in the past why cannot now? have we gone backwards.

Most of the hawkers are heartless. See how they prepare food you can will tell. Just curious will they throw away the food if unsold?
