New private home launches sink to 20-year low in H1

There were only 1,939 units launched– the lowest since 2004.

New home sales and launches sank to an all-time record low in the first half of 2024, according to a report by OrangeTee Group.

Singapore reported only 1,889 sales in the primary home market.

Only 1,939 units were launched during the six month-period. This is the lowest number of launches since 2004, when 2,080 units launched in the H1 period, noted Christine Sun, chief researcher & strategist, OrangeTee Group.

Private residential prices experienced slower growth, at 2.3% in H1. This is slower than the 3.1% price increase in H1 2023 and the 4.2% price increase in H1 2022.

Prices rose 2.5% rise to S$2,411 per square feet (psf) in Q2.
