Singapore Private Property Resale Falls 70.2%

Resale of non-landed private residential homes tumbled 70.2 per cent from 1,039 deals in January 2013 to 310 deals in January 2014, and the Singapore Real Estate Report (SRX) says this is a direct result of cooling measures.

The 310 resale deals also represent a 9.1 per cent fall from last December’s 341 transactions.

“While CNY has had some impact, it is clear from the long-term data that the cooling measures are having maximum impact on the volume side of the equation,” said Jeremy lee, co-founder of srx.com.sg.
