How cheap is cheap ?

Since HDB is intended to be governmental homes, Government should sell land to HDB at subsidized rate instead of fair market price. This will make HDB flats cheaper.

years fr now
theyll also say
this is cheap like hk

actually shld declare
'hdb has what you can only afford'

It will never happen.

Only can own 1 HDB at most...

most people can pay off their HDBs in 15 years. it is affordable.

HK maybe 2 generations

USA typical is 15 years I think. butgheir interest rates are high.
Australia same.
most use 25 to 30 years loan tenor .. but these countries home loan interest rates are crazy high

I agreed ...

1) HDB BTOs are still affordable. You got lots of locations and sizes to choose and ballot, so choose the one according to your budget.

2) HDB Resale maybe not affordable in some configuration and area , this one I agree too.


So .. I think we should not lump HDB BTOs and HDB Resales together.

BTOs really is very affordable. Govt already gave 1st time home owner a good chance to buy one to stay. (maybe should let 35yr old single have a bite at 3room BTO also but should always prioritize the family unit .hehe.. )

if you cannot afford to upgrade or shift to another location, don't do it.

You can try ballot for another BTO .. if you die die want to relocate.

I think the govt has done its job as long as BTO are affordables and to provide roof over your head.

Anything after that is really up to your ability/capability.

For “new” adults with higher starting pay n jump pay YES

for mid age 40 n beyond with lower starting pay n stagnant low or little salaries increase
NO

SO those in late 30s to 40 n beyond I think considered officially lose their advantage lo

HDB is still cheap! Compared to condos, HDB is dirt cheap!

Better buy now before you miss the boat then later KPKB on EDMW

PAP Desmond WSWSWWS! Huat ah!

 

[havetheveryfun]

he also quite poor thing.

HDB becoming super expensive is a by product of the population increase.

as long as the party whip is not lifted and the party keeps importing non-stop, HDB prices will only continue to increase non stop also.

trying to focus on HDB to solve the problem is like treating the symptoms only and not the root cause.
