Flats with shorter waiting times being built in Sin Ming and Toa Payoh
The flats are slated for completion by mid-2030, and their launch date has not been announced.
Singapore's Housing Development Board (HDB) is constructing hundreds of Built-To-Order (BTO) flats with shorter waiting times in Sin Ming and Toa Payoh. The new homes are being built on previously developed brownfield sites. In Sin Ming, a 1,076-unit project is being constructed, which includes a childcare centre and a supermarket.
In Toa Payoh, a 40-storey HDB block comprising 193 units is under construction, accompanied by a multi-storey carpark with a roof garden, a precinct pavilion, and other community facilities. The estimated launch dates and waiting times for these flats will be announced later, but their completion by mid-2030 suggests that both projects may go on sale in mid-2027 at the earliest.
Due to their location and the limited availability of land, the HDB is redeveloping suitable brownfield sites to provide more housing options, particularly in the Bishan town area. Analysts expect healthy demand for these projects due to their proximity to existing homes, the town's limited land availability, and the attractive shorter waiting times.
