Those high COVs are asked by hopeful owners who are not really keen on selling.
Just trying their luck to see if there is any sucker in the market.

And some sucker does come around to buy at that price.M friend sold his flat at 60K COV in Yishun. He was so surprised because he had not expected any offer and had given the figure to push the agent away. The agent ended up bringing a buyer offering that price.

So he decided to sell and going to rent for an year or two before prices fall again. Will invest his profit from HDB in some good investments for short term.


COV 60K? terrible....can i know is 4room or 3room flat? 1st owner?

some even asking for 50k COV for jurong west hdb ....


If I am the seller, I might ask for 100k cov, for a ulu 3rm flat. Smile Just try my luck, no harm.

As a buyer, you need to know what you will get for the price. You can make any offer (sell @ valuation, sell below valuation, blah blah) to each interested flat, no harm as well, right?

There's a two weeks Option to Purchase period followed by 6-7 weeks of waiting before u are granted a first appt. So if data reflects first appt, then aug data should be june's transactions.

Interesting trends we are seeing... Wink

i agree that it can't drop so low. There is a substantial demand for hdb flats, but when private property drops drastically as is happening now, hdb also has to give way. The fact that desperate FT's who had no choice but to buy their own flats had already bought their flats at high COV.

Almost 75% of my FT friends have already bought their flats. All bought at above 10K COV.The rest do not plan to stay long. Thus the demand from thie FT is declining drastically. Sellers fail to realise this. It is only after a couple of months that they will realise that the good old days are over. The desperate ones will start to sell below valuation and a trend will follow suit. This will lead to decline in the new valuations.

The smart sellers are already letting go at valuation now after realising that there is not much buyers around.The ignorant, GOOD LUCK HOPE YOU GET "20k" OR 50k CASH
