Why Sin Ming BTO started construction earlier ah? Actually when don't all projects start building earlier before even application open up like the current Sin Ming BTO? That way the waiting time can be cut by quite a bit

Likely poor planning by those in charge.

Typically HDB will tender out the project after project take up is > 50%.
Some projects are tender earlier, some are later. It also depends on main con interest level.

Even though some project start foundation earlier, it does not mean that it will complete earlier. It may start fast but slow down later.

I think make plan accordingly to the ECD +- 6 months will be better for planning.

The resale 4 room hdb units that just MOP are selling at more than $600k and they are far away from MRT.
You still want to hope for previous BTO price.

What i suggestion is for BTO, HFE is after the sale launch than start apply, let the applicate 1 week period to apply HFE, if they never done so, should void their application, i dont mind the result take 3 4 mths since the BTO also must wait 4 5 years. If gov 1 2 check their salary, is use the cpf statement instead payslip...

For what though, adds on to the admin load for HDB and slows down everyone else. Just apply before launch to see if eligible or not. Letting them apply after launch means HDB still need to filter out people who are not eligible, but have already applied. Maybe one way is to allow people to apply HFE after the launch, but set the application fee at $10,000 non-refundable and does not contribute to the flat price, and call it the Lazy-Premium.

HDB keep blasting news on their social media to tell people to apply HFE in advance. Apply for HFE after the launch has completely no benefits.
